Kitchen is a mess but worth it. First tempura zucchini flower which was exciting (weird looking thing in the middle). Sort of pointless but it looked nice.

A friend in Queensland sent through this link: www.lifeblood.com.au/blood/blood-supply-levels
Even though I figure they’re not sending blood from WA to Queensland, I saw that local supplies in my blood type were low. So I dusted off my old donor profile and made a booking.
I fell out of the habit when kids and life stuff happened. I really should have gone back years ago. The process of donating blood is smooth and streamlined. I was in and out in under 30 minutes and back to my day.
Pilk@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Thanks for donating on behalf of those who can’t :) What snacks did you get?
Nath@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
A small bag of Kettle chips and a TimTam. They had a whole spread there, it was a lot fancier than the last time I donated.
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
That’s awesome!! You’ve helped someone out there who needs it mate!
I have mine booked for the 22nd due to the low supply for A+!
dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I got to wait another month before eligible again.
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Last time I gave blood, I got my period the next day and I was absolutely wrecked! Had to get some iron tablets to feel normal again!
Thanks for your donations bro! 😂💜

Second cushion is complete. My aim is to finish the two back cusions today as well, but I might only get one done. I’m glad I decided to do the sofa with a single long cushion instead of the three seperate cushions it currently has, that would have taken a lot more time.

Have been bed bound with migraine all day. Just now getting up to have breakfast and a shower.
Crazy how a tiny bundle of nerves in my shoulder can absolutely ruin my life.
dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It’s not that tiny. The brachial plexus.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I know it well. I would get gravid hyperthyroidism , which would fire off my nerves and then I would get angina like symptoms. Just nerves, nothing actually wrong. It was quite anxiety producing too as the nerves would also fire off anxiety centres of the brain.
we are nothing but wet electrical wires, sticks and pulleys
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
The actual pain point feels like the circumference of a 5c coin.
But the impact is fucking crazy.
bacon@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
is migraine day for me too, and yesterday. i blame the moon.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Works for me! It’s finally subsiding but I’ve lost an entire day pretty much.
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Hope you feel better soon.
Rest well!
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Thanks mate :)
just_kitten@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Got my replacement dishwasher in today, did one load successfully - here’s hoping it lasts me much longer than the previous one!! I felt such euphoria at clearing so many dishes in one go but had to check myself; don’t get attached to it just in case the dw craps out on you again…
Cut up the packaging and dumped it in the recycling, finished the more annoying/tedious half of my desktop work, now doing a bit of laundry and vacuuming and once I get it all dried and am back I’ll feel like I truly deserve my week of tv :D
I met one of the neighbours (well, the owner of one of the units) today who turned out to be super nice so that was a real pick-me-up
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have made a start on the next lot of cushions, but decided to take a break instead and went to Resource Rescue (craft supplies) and ended up spending the last couple of hours sorting zippers and untangling elastic. Miss Meow tried to help, but her technique was a bit suspect and things went faster when she was diverted to a job as paperweight instead.

just another day of packing and cleaning
at least it’s not hot
but it’s also Severance day and severance reddit has been crazy
It’s really taught me how people can be watching the same show and see completely different things. It seems to attract a bigger share of crazy conspiracy theorists than normal.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Even when I watch a TV show that’s a few years old, I still like to google the show and the episode number after every episode because I love to see what other people are seeing/thinking/saying. I don’t know much about Severance besides what I’ve seen in here, but I can imagine it has people pitching the craziest of ideas!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
robots, clones, pregnancy and complete surveillance seem to be the most popular
my fave nuts post so far has been the feminist saying no man could possibly understand the women signally to each other scene. It was men who wrote the scene.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Driving along I wanted to change the song. must’ve said “hey Google” 5 or 6 times before I realized thats probably not gonna work on my iphone. I havnt had google assistant in like 6 years, man I’m dumb!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have 2 google homes. One in the kitchen and one in the lounge room. Sometimes the one in the kitchen that’s further away answers me but not what I’ve asked.
The other day I got frustrated and replied “hey google shut the fuck up cunt”. Then I heard giggling from another room and realised I wasn’t home alone.
Another one is:
Me: Hey google. What’s the weather like today?
Google: Would you like me tell you about your day…
Me: NO. I asked for the weather. Fuck me.

Great song.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
still packing stuff this evening, I’m up to these Turkish dishes and bowls, never used them, they are too delicate. So beautiful tho.
dumblederp@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Accept impermanence. Enjoy your pretty dishes.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I will. 🙂
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’d use them for mezza. So beautiful!
Next time when the young Seagoons visit go sick.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
^^ this is the way (they are just stunning btw)
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
They are so beautiful! Use them as they deserve!
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I have a couple of those. They are totally not food safe after meeting high speed cats and being repaired. Display purposes only.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I think with wooden serving spoons? And no where near cats of course.
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Wow. Gorgeous
just_kitten@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Those are such gorgeous dishes. I’d almost frame them just to gaze at lovingly but I think they could be used for occasional guests
StudChud@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Playing a pre-alpha game I downloaded from itchy.io (Voices of the Void), and my vehicle (ATV) just disappeared 😂 walked into a building, walked out and it was just gone lol
I said out loud “I can’t be mad” and cackled as I ran back to my base lol
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m trying to decide what to grab for myself as a “congrats new job, congrats 10 years sober” present.
There are 2 options:
- eventide h90
- empress zoia
Please pick either 1 or 2 and reply to this and I’ll grab the one with the most votes. I know I’m asking a lot, so all good if not :)
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I don’t know what that is. Go number 1 ?
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Neither do I. Go number 2!
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Your vote has been added to the tally!
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
shout out to my neighbor who I’d never even spoken to before for helping me out this arvo. Dude disappeared before I could say a proper thanks but I got his wife to admit what he drinks so dudes getting a 6 pack of Carlton Draught this evening.
In somewhat related news, whilst the car can tow the campervan with ease, reversing it is… well lets just say it makes the turning circle of an aircraft carrier look good!
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Peanut nemnems will help
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have some good news. We’ve had the old fridge in the garage tarped over for more than 10 years so the other day the man set it up and opened it. It spotless. I did an excellent job cleaning back when.
Anyway he gave it another clean and it’s now a beer fridge which is great because I don’t need to tetris my food in the inside fridge every Thursday night.
Tonight we will be celebrating with the original fridge. Also great for storing watermelon in because that shit takes up a lot of room before it gets cut up.
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
My plan today, doing a bit of work, leave for lunch early and not come back.
Also must allow for travel time.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I got no sleep. Work occurs regardless

Ah, the dulcet tones of f1 cars from a distance. Hooray, not

Happy Pi Day (if you can stand American order dates) Need to go buy a bottle of Stout. 🥧
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Anti-spoiler
This does not give anything away about the plot but if anyone is worried (like me) that they showed Irving’s dog early in the severance ep because something was gonna happen to it. Its ok. Nothing happens to the dog.
Carry on ( so traumatized by the tripe of show the dog to hurt the dog…)

It’s official. Wine o’clock. Billy Joel wrote a hit song about it - goes - It’s wine o’clock on a Saturday, the regular crowd shuffles in.

I think the first person to invent laundry scent beads that don’t smell like cheap shampoo or air freshener is gonna end up a billionaire.

Late lunch today but I escaped work early
Going to go with a meat pie!
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Lunch. I have sprung for 600ml of full powered Coke in the hope the sugar and caffeine does something
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Does anyone here get out of bed as soon as their alarm goes off?
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
need a coffee. Early start wasnt my friend today.
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Dinner is served
steak & stout pie
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Look…I am over here trying to convince myself this gluten free Woolies pie is good and that’s just rude.
Looks so so good though 😭
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I regret I know no way to make this GF. I’ve found some decent pastries, but not a convincing Stout
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Dinner pretty
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Blessed be. ❤️
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ve never called a pie “adorable” before, but that really is adorable!
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
🖤 I’ll make you a kitten or dinosaur one sometime
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Such golden goodness! I hope it’s served with mash potato? 🤞
Duenan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Trying to one up my meat pies for lunch huh?
Well I never!
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I believe I declared my intent around breakfast time 😝
