    I’ve got slack on masking after keeping it up for so long. Wondering if it would be weird to start wearing one again during flu season.

    Of course it’s not weird but you know, it’s not the norm to wear face masks in Australia like it is in Asia. And it’s rare to see them now. People would probably stare, assume you were sick, or it might provoke the cooker type.

    Then again I really don’t think I’d fare well with the flu.

      Please do. We wear. No stares.

      I still do in crowded places. And I would in more if I had more serious health issues (or still had immunocompromised peeps in my life). The biggest reaction I have had was someone moving away from me on a train when I was masked and had a random coughing fit Which is fair.

      And I went to inspect an office the other day. Real estate dude rocks up. Clearly Ill. Overhear him on the phone while we are inspecting “you sick? Oh have you got what I have?”. No mask, shook my hand (before I realised). 😡😡

      So protect yourself!

      I’ve seen Some people wear masks still.

      I don’t think it’s strange, epically since we weren’t through a period of the majority of us having experiencing it back during the first outbreaks.

      Understandable as well at the moment because of the recent news of the covid strain being a bit more aggressive.

    My sister has been given a secondment to another team. She’s had to change her email signature, so it’s got her new role, its subteam, then team, then wider department. A whole lot of words to say what she’s doing.

      Mine has all this. And then the days I work in each role. And when I’m not here, because part time workforce.

      gratin. This is heresy I know but I actually don’t like fries all that much. Will eat them, but they don’t sing to my soul.

    Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is free on the Epic Store for anyone interested.

    • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      It’s a kind of DnD/RPG spinoff from Borderlands 2. It’s fun enough and worth grabbing for a rainy day.

        The narration in it though can get a little bit tedious and long winded.

    What’s the point of silicone free shampoo, when it’s conditioner has silicone as the second ingredient? 🤦‍♀️

    source
    • Thornburywitch@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Advertising to the gullible. Which includes practically everyone who sees XXX-free on the label and thinks “That’s gotta be better for me!”. I am looking forward to fat-free soap.

        Like seeing meat labelled ‘Hormone Free’. All meat is Australia is hormone free. We don’t do that shit here.

        But it implies that all other brands have added hormones.

        I think it’s hormones, I could be wrong.

        source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Good thing I didn’t buy it for the lack of silicone haha, it was just something I noticed when I was reading the bottles in the shower. So stupid lol

    trying to explain the difference between an aussie sausage sizzle and a hot dog to an american friend. What would be the closest equivalent?

    source
    • Thornburywitch@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Hot dogs are boiled. Sausage sizzles are ‘broiled’. One little consonant makes a mighty difference to the end result.

      source
    • MeanElevator@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Grilled dogs vs boiled ones.

      In Canada hot dog stands do both!! Dogs are first steamed (does most of the cooking) then grilled for that charred goodness.

      source
    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Sausages are just very fine mince with added fillers so I’d say pureed hamburger mince.

    The Hello Fresh meal kits arrive today, which will take me through the move and the first days in the new house. Breakfasts and half the lunches are already sorted too, I just need to add in some random sandwiches.

    Today I will try to finish all the packing inside & get the shed packed up. Working tomorrow for a rest, then Sunday will be packing up all the last minute stuff. I’m feeling a lot better about my packing progress after taking a van load to the new house yesterday, I was able to take a bunch of hard to pack stuff up in bags and I have a bit more space in the second bedroom to actually move and finish the packing in there.

    Mr Woof and Miss Meow are both being given a food additive that is supposed to be calming (some sort of milk protein, a lady at work swears by it) and Miss Meow has Feliway spray, diffuser and Gabapentin for the moving day. They may end up calmer about the whole thing than me!

    I’m constantly back at Mts Washmore and Dishmore.

    The premade ‘cleaning music’ playlists that come up kind of suck. lol. Idk, I’ll probably just try to find some older ones with 80s/90s music - bonus for the fun kind of corny

    Really enjoying a new game I started playing a few weeks ago; The Bazaar. It’s like a deck builder auto battler thing. It’s really complex and high skill level. I’m still a noob but I’m having a blast. It’s free to play, but not on steam unfortunately
