    First Just Joey is out:

    Fave rose.

    • PeelerSheila@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Just Joey! That’s my favourite rose too! Mum used to have an extensive garden with some of my favourites (Just Joey, Peace, Black Boy, Queen Elizabeth, Blue Moon among others) but this one was my favourite for its heady fragrance.

      source

        My mum has a few roses and Just Joey is the only one she knows the name of because it’s still got it’s tag on it.

        source
    • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      That’s pretty. I don’t have any roses at the moment, I’ll live vicariously through yours. Is it scented?

      source
      • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        Yea very strong (and nice) scent.

        Has it’s own wiki lol.

      That is glorious. Apricot coloured double bloom. (?) Does it have a nice perfume like the Peace rose?

      What a gorgeous rose and an excellent way to celebrate!

    I’m so fucking embarrassed that it took me this long to realise I haven’t been singing in my voices natural key. Which is why everything takes ages to learn.

    Not any more it seems lol. I’m singing pretty much every song I like and it’s easy.

    Learn music theory!

      Ayyyy congrats!

      I’ve learnt this lesson twice over now haha, once to know things were mysteriously easier around E# and then a second time to realise that was only the case when I started using chest voice properly and embraced being a baritone.

    So I froze margarita mix then ran it through the Creami and added tequila. Is a margarita daiquiri a thing?

    source
  • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Question if the day: When you take the old sheets of the bed do you refer to that as “stripping”? As in I’ve stripped the bed ready for the new sheets to go on later or do call it something else or never thought about it.

    source
    • Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      The bed’s naked now

        Oops, wrong thread

        The bed’s raw now.

      When I crash at a friends I ask if they want me to strip or make the bed.

      source
    • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I flay the bed.

      source

        Interesting

        source
    • anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Yep, have always called it stripping the bed…

      source
    • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I’d say stripped the sheets if I haven’t put new sheets on the bed yet, once I’ve remade it I’d say I changed the sheets.

      source
    • LowExperience2368@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Always been taking the sheets off for me.

      source
    • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I call it “stripping”. I supposed “changed the bed sheets” works as well, but I use “strip/stripping” 99% of the time.

      source
    • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Yeah I strip the bed and then with fresh linen I make the bed. (Though that’s meant to refer to putting it back in order in the morning.) Or I simply ‘change the sheets/bedding’

    My girlfriend has finally decided to check out bone conduction headphones. The whole time we’ve been together she would just play things on her phone constantly because she didn’t like things in or around her ears.

    She decided to get some bone conduction headphones, completely unprompted given I have a spare pair she could have used. I might finally get some peace and quiet if she takes up using these

    Warts on my toes are returning, which would be whatever, but there is now a small one forming on my FUCKING FINGERTIP!! Like, excuse me? We could have lived in peace, but this strain of HPV has forced my hand.

    I bought a nitrous oxide freeze device from the pharmacy. I’m going scorched earth on their asses.

      B-R has a blowtorch, now Spud has an ice device. That’s fire and ice/water.

      We need someone to get a leaf blower or compressed air gun for air and err… something for earth now so we can be elemental benders

        Yes it’s this product …com.au/…/endwarts-freeze-pen-7-5g

        It is an unpleasant experience, but my partner has a weaker stomach than I so I did it to myself lol

        In 14 days I’ll know if it worked or not (one application and then leave it for 14 days)

    another very early night tonight

    gotta shake this sore back and virus

    source
  • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Good gig last night.

    Never really liked the venue (Brown alley). not sure how i feel about having a mugshot taken. Also no passouts which is odd because they stamp you when you go in. Pretty scathing reviews on google lol. Good sound though.

    Last track they played has been a top 3 of mine for years and I don’t think I’ll ever hear it on a loud rig again so that made it worth it.

    source
    • Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Glad you had a good night man!

      What was the track?

        This one

      mugshot?

      that’s a big no from me

      and would also go to the club owners house and take photos of them

      source
      • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        I can understand it from a safety aspect. I think they cross reference it to a database to see if you’ve caused shit before (both there and elsewhere). But yeah, can’t escape it these days :( No passout thing pissed me off.

    Good fucking lord those ikea induction plates go like the proverbial

    source
    • T156@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Induction does do that. It’s too bad that they tend to have the rather opposite problem where because they go so quickly, a lot of the time, the graduations aren’t fine enough to work with.

      If it wasn’t for the fact that electricity was so expensive (3x the price for power, though an induction stove uses half as much), I’d not mind using an induction hob nearly all the time.

    It’s a good day. The woolies bins were full of tapioca pudding that hadn’t even been unpacked, and I’ve got a party today. Chocolate pudding for all!

    source
    • PeelerSheila@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      It’s amazing what they throw out. After father’s Day one year I saw a guy going through the dumpy of my local Woolies pull out a gigantic package of roasting beef, and I mean huge, you’d maybe just fit it into the oven of a small stove like mine. His two dogs certainly looked very appreciative 😁

    The coffee and date loaf I made yesterday is pretty delicious, but could do with more dates. It’s probably just as well I only brought two slices with me to work, if I had the whole loaf I would probably end up eating half of it, it’s a bit moreish.

    I got woken up around midnight from a really deep sleep because someone wanted a lozenge. But I actually managed to get back to sleep really quickly for once. I’ve got to go into work because I forgot to fill in my timesheet for yesterday. The boss bought a new cleaning product for the floor and I was enthusiastically testing it out 😆 so I forgot. Then I’ll probably take Miniest shopping for clothes for school camp and the year beyond (no uniforms needed for high school). For now though I’m enjoying that “I don’t have to get up yet” weekend vibe.
