I kind of just want to vegetate in the shower

I’m making a strawberry cheesecake for the other half’s birthday which is tomorrow. Its totally okay for me to use the leftover strawberries as a spatula of sorts to scrape out the rest of the mixing bowl, isn’t it? To clarify, these leftover berries are straight into my belly.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’d be disappointed if you didn’t.
Eagle@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Quality control.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It is efficient and eliminates waste. Do it
Eagle@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Less dishes… I like your thinking.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
pretty sure scraping out cake mixing bowls is always straight to tummy , I never thought different …lol

Job offer has been rescinded after reference checks (which were glowing) because they didn’t feel one of my skillsets in strong enough - never mind that they didn’t even advertise for it and it was only lightly touched on in the interview process. Honestly feel relieved, albeit a little bit angry. Definitely got bullet dodged vibes.
tone212_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Who does that? Very sloppy, sounds like you dodged a bullet.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Absolutely dodged a bullet tbh. Had some unsure vibes to start with but was willing to take the chance because I need to make some changes!
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
What a bunch of absolute fuckwits!
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I had that where a place asked for references then said they went with someone else with more industry experience. And I was just thinking “you knew that already, you have both our resumes.”
There is never any consideration on how much the interview process can be a waste of time for the candidate
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Right?! Not to mention, if they wanted that skillset so bad, maybe put that on the ad?!
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Three day weekend starting in 1h10m 🕓
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Then is it beer time?
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It might be 👀
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Goodnight (at 8pm apparently) ❤️
Trying to allow for the usual shit sleep so I’m functional at 6:30am when I get up to get ready to meet old mate the director.
Apparently he’s British. I wonder if he loved The Bill and Are you being served as much as I did?
tone212_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
If a stranger is being / sounding rude, do you match their rudeness in return or try to kill them with kindness? I’ve had two such encounters over the past few days, tried both approaches and felt unsatisfied each times.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Depends on the context. I think it comes down to whether they’re being rude to you for no reason or if there’s a slight provocation.
I always give cars the finger if they get in the way on my bike at all. I want to drive home that anything they do wrong could have serious impacts for me no matter who was in the wrong.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Neither.
It depends on where they are coming from. If they are just a common arse I will ignore it and not see them again.
I will also assess the situation for possible violent outcomes.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have what I call an “inner wog” that can be incredibly hostile under the right conditions. People being rude to me is one of them.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I rarely come across rude people but if I do I usually stare at them for a few seconds before I speak in an assertive tone.
I have said to people “Don’t speak to me like that. I didn’t speak to you rudely. You don’t speak to me like that”.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
You are much more polite than me.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m extremely hard to anger. I tend to empathise too much and if someone is being rude I’m pretty much just feeling sorry for them that they interact that way. I’d just try to de-escalate and politely stand my ground if they were trying to get something from me if it were unreasonable
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m hard to anger, but can happy to shut rudely shut people down when needed… Generally I’m polite but will do a 180 immediately if someone acts up for no reason.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Match their rudeness, and exceed if needed. Generally brings them down to earth quickly.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It depends on whether matching the energy would come back to bite you
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Little dog has a perfectly good large dog bed with a quilt but he chooses to sleep on the couch under my couch doona. I nearly sat him this morning.
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
This is something I worry about when dog sitting my brother’s step-chihuahua
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Oh no. Chihuahuas are easy to break.
My dog will escort me from the couch to the loo then when I get back under the doona, I don’t know he’s there, he moves like I’m Godzilla then he cracks the shits because I’ve disturbed him.
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
MFW I’m making a slice and it calls for a full can of condensed milk, a block of cooking chocolate and seven full sized mars bars to be melted together.
thank fuck I’m expecting visits from a bunch of kids under 10
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
How many does it serve?
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
who cares, most of them are six year olds
Eagle@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Oooh mars bar slice?
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
ayup. Think I fucked the condensed milk though, a bit grainy
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
YL wants me to do Onlyfans feet for petrol money and I’m seriously considering it. She’ll look after the account, photography etc and I’ll supply the feet. Strictly pics only. Basically she’s the boss and I’m the talent.
Give me a reason why not? I do have nice feet.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I think we’re going to need some pics to evaluate your potential
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
omg, I too have had the fleeting thought
but no, not ever ever ever
because people send you money they expect you to do things for them, you will get requests, plus they will send messages saying and doing nasty things
iow, it’s real sex work and you don’t want to do it
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
If someone could come up with a story, it’s my kid.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Honestly. I’d do it if someone wanted photos of brown mildly hairy size 13’s lol
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I think people would pay for hairy toes 🤷♀️
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
We’re mid-way through watching ‘once upon a time’ in Hollywood and every time there’s a feet shot, shouting ‘feet!’ in honour of Quentin’s, erm, penchant. There are more in there than I remembered from last viewing, lol So if this is anything to go by, I reckon there’s money in it
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
quentin is ick because it’s all he seems to like
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
As long as I don’t have to get out of my pj’s I’m up for the challenge.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I don’t know anyone who does it and it’s not my cup of tea so take this with a grain of salt.
But I heard stuff like the platform can randomly refuse to pay you for whatever reason. There were news articles where people were complaining of not getting their money.
Also consider that a lot of payment processors have cracked down on sex work (or anything they consider adjacent). So you might risk getting your payment account banned or not getting your money that way.
I’ve also seen articles interviewing the people getting hired to chat with subscribers on the creators behalf, so the subscribers may expect a parasocial online relationship for their money and you might be expected to chat with them or arrange someone else to do that. Not sure if YL would be comfortable.
The money may not be as good for the average person as the high earners say.
There’s also considerations around privacy and not getting doxed.
This is just what I’ve seen from news articles and my own observations. If you’re serious I’d talk to someone that’s actually done it and ask what you really need to know.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have remnants of pink nail polish on my toes from seven months ago. I think your feet win.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I just bought a new doona. It’s thin but made of cotton and the inside is wool. I’m wondering if I’ll die of heat this summer.
My question of the day is: Do youse alternate between a winter doona and summer doona? What are they made of if you do or don’t?
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
The vibe is weird today
Pilk@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Gonna go op-shopping for some house clothes (tired of spilling pasta sauce on good clothing). If I am lucky I might even get them cheaper than buying brand new from Kmart.

I’ve been looking through music again and came across the Callous Daoboys. The name sounds familiar, I may have listened to a single from this year.
With a name like that, you have to check them out at least once
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I use chatgpt for a lot of interview and study stuff. I didn’t realise it had a voice function where it speaks back.
It is fucking surreal.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Back is good enough to do some Spring work in the front garden. Some cleaning up, weeding, cleaning up pots and replanting and planting out some flowers.

off for morning beach
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Last night’s sleep was 1 hour blocks instead of 2 hour blocks.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaah lol
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I feel like I’m too chaotic to train someone in my role. I jump around way too much.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Good night everyone, sweet dreams 😘
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
The far beach I go to really is not very nice at the moment, so much rotting seaweed and millions of rotting winged oysters make it a bit stinky and the tideline a loss for shell collecting. For the next month I will just go to my little local beach across the road, which is lovely nonetheless . ☺️
Here’s some pics
I went out on the unprotected fishing pier to take this shot, it was quite windy and I was nervous
some pelicans
and a weird little sponge that blew in on the storm the other day, it still has it’s bright yellow colour , before the sun and dryness kills all the poryphora living in the sponge, there were also bright orange, red, pink, purple sponges in many strange shapes

This is an incredibly rare intersection of hardcore IT and music production.
Man this is wild!

There’s a swooping magpie on my ride now the wetland path has opened up again. I can detach my front light so I’ve been taking it off and holding it on my head backwards so the light is facing the magpie.
It seems to work quite well. I also turn and swing my arm at it when I see the bird. I refuse to be one of those cyclists with the cable ties on my helmet. Lights on the back of the helmet might be the simplest solution for magpies, and also increases overall visibility.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Urgh. Another exhausted day where I fell asleep when I got home. Doctor tells me not to fight it, but it’s making it annoying to get stuff done. At least I got some help and did a few things this week.
I’ve given up and bought a new cheap printer just so I don’t have to traipse to Officeworks every time I need to copy something, and sorted out myGov linking stuff.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Got another interview for another role next week!!! Wooohooooo
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
That’s great news. I hope you snag one soon.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Thanks man! Just got to keep the ball rolling :)
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
yay, good luck 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Thank you! The more interviews I get, the more practice I get!
