    I needed some comfort TV so I’m watching The Room. Been years since I’ve watched it and it still delivers.

      I looked up The Room. That was an interesting rabbit hole.

        It’s fine cinema, highly recommend

      Everybody betray me! I fed up with this world!

    I have no idea if my mum is doing it or if a bad actor is doing it, but I keep getting emails from Apple support addressed to my mum to saying

    “We have reviewed your request, and access to your account (my email @gmail.com) has been denied.

    Sincerely,

    Apple”

    It looks legit, the email it’s from looks legit, and I suspect it’s because a long time ago I’d helped my mum set up her phone and she didn’t have an email at the time. But I don’t know how to give it back to her or whatever, there’s nothing actionable in the email, and it’s giving me a stress headache looking at emails addressed to mum. It’s making me feel really anxious, that to resolve this I might have to break my no-contact.

    Fuuuuuuuck

      She can get a new phone it’s fine

        Thank you 🙏 I think I just needed a voice of reason to give me permission to ignore lol

        source
    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      If this is distressing you think about using a new account for yourself, transferring email to the ne one and deleting the old email account

      yes, I know it’s a pain but it might be the easiest way

      and it will cut the link to you

      source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

        It would be harder tbh, the email I used is my main one I use for important stuff. I’m just going to ignore them and have Gmail send them to a junk folder

        source
    • Eagle@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Is there another person you can use to communicate with her?

      source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

        Nope. I’m not in contact with her or her entire family.

        I’m just gonna take Force’s advice and ignore, have Gmail send those apple emails direct to a junk folder I think 💜

        source
    • SituationCake@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Have you checked with your mum if she’s trying to access the account and is maybe getting the PW wrong? If not, then it’s a hack attempt.

      source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

        I haven’t spoken to her since before COVID, I’m just going to ignore them like Force suggested 😅

    Gardening sesh complete. Green bin full!

    I have a sore finger from pressing the aerogard button so much lol. 300g went a long way though so might be cheaper than I thought.

    Interesting thing from pulling the oxalis that I sprayed Monday evening is a lot of the bulbs came up with it so that was a surprise. Almost like they were stuck on more but might be imagining things.

    Now it’s a pizza time.

    source
    • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Not to dampen your fiery spirits, but I’m guessing you know about how oxalis have the secret little bulbils that snap off and stay in the soil after you pull out the main bulb…? and sometimes there can be bulbs up to 20cm below the surface… I used to be so annoyed at how I thought I’d gotten rid of the bulbs only for them all to come back again… but to be fair I wasn’t treating them with the angel of death.

      source
      • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I just picked the weeds as best I could. I might not have killed it, there will be bulbs but it’s now very very sick. I’ll remove the weeds again when they show up.

        source
      • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        :( I do. There’d be more than thousands down there heh. Really hoping the mist of ruination get transported but yea, big doubts about that. At least I’m not being bitten by insects running the garden lol.

        source
    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      yay, death to oxalis

      I continued cutting back a very over grown bush, pulled some weeds and got rid of a dead pot plant

    Really really good final Medicare-subsidised session with psych today - lifted a lot of the irritation and frustration I’ve been feeling over the last two weeks just getting some things off my chest and talking about the importance of my trip away to someone who knows why.

    Riding on the wave of goodness I decided to actually read my emails rather than just mark them all as read and what do you know, it’s National Tree Day on Sunday and there’s heaps of planting events all over town. The weather might be frightful but I think that’s exactly what I need, getting out in nature, working with my hands alongside others for something good. The hot shower afterwards will feel very earned 😁 that’s my Sunday sorted!

    Why yes leadership team, the team is under performing because we are missing 3 full time experienced staff and replacing them with 2 beginners isn’t making up the difference.

        Yes it is! I love how people have named birds, and some of them are comical (e.g. drab seedeater, penduline tits).

    Today I have been listen to Los Fabulosos Tres Paraguayos album Besame www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-2C9_vG4cw

    I knew all the songs . Spanish and Brazilian music was huge in the 50s and 60s . I grew up watching I Love Lucy and Desi and his band would play all the Spanish classics

    so here’s some really good music from Desi and band www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfZd_IXnQu4

      Wiggle your jaw from side to side to unblock the sinuses.

        I’ve also been yawning and swallowing to try and unblock it, i’ll give the wiggle a try as well.

        I started to get all dizzy and stuff from it initially when it got blocked.

    Watched the first speech last night of the new member for Melbourne, Sarah Witty. (From 5h40m41s)

    It was a moving and notably principled speech, and I think she could be a source of much needed leftward pressure on federal Labor behind the scenes.

    Looking at different kinds of coral to ID a beach find I’m now thinking about getting an aquarium. A nice really salt water one that can have a reef .

    And the coral is a large polyp stony coral, maybe a Button coral , I just don’t know exactly and can’t find detailed information.

    Things are hard right now. There’s crappy stuff going on I probably won’t post but I also recently found out an old family friend has passed.

    Life is incredibly heavy so other than pressing chores and cuddling/tending to Melbcat I’m mostly sleeping life away.
