Was a nice change from my normal nightmares! Thanks.

Having met both in real life we can testify that this is true.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I am in fact 9 feet tall
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Does anyone who is going to said party want some supermarket knockoff Lego packets? I’ve a bunch of duplicates to rehome.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Are they the Woolworths ones? You can recycle them there until March 31
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago

StudChud@aussie.zone 3 days ago

Doing an informal squat challenge this month and today was my first round with weighted squats in a while. Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow. Do enjoy that a bar makes it easier to keep form but ow ow ow ow ow ow.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Please share your squat challenge!
I did squats today too as well as a full workout and am quite tired now.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 days ago
It’s just 56 squats a day for the 56 women diagnosed with breast cancer daily. Meant to be a fund-raiser, hence the doing it informally. I’ve been slack with my squats lately so thought it would be a good way to get back into it. Did it with 20kgs bar today and, well, you’ve seen the ows.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Ok so you inspired me to have another look at squats. One of my least favourite exercises because my knees hate me (“lift with your knees” they said, “save your back” they said). I thought, there’s got to be a way to do it without trashing your knees. That led me to a short video which really helped. I did all the things that Dr said and now I can (carefully) do squats! Very excited to join you on your squat challenge!
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I love this!!! Also, thanks for the video, that’s super helpful for Boyo. Hope your legs don’t ache too much today! I do them in blocks of 10 or 20 if I’m too tired or sore.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Now I’m not looking forward to starting them again next week lol
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Birthday dinner was underwhelming. Great place, food was quality…but left kind of hungry.
I picked the joint so can’t be too mad.
Still had a blast with the family.
tone212_@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Happy birthday! I also had an underwhelming food experience today, a new fancy sandwich place which I was excited to try but ended up being very mid. It happens.

Name and shame…we live in the same hood (give or take).
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 days ago
The hollow leg curse. Years ago a friend offered me all I could eat taco bill for my birthday for me n a mate. I’m 6’2" he’s 6’5". She cut us off after two entrees and two mains. We went elsewhere afterwards for a bit more food. Next week she came into my bar where she got free beer and I cut her off after two. Payback.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Best birthday wishes to you! 🎈🎉

One glass of low-ish alcohol lemon spritz and was inspired to play with some make-up I don’t often use, so will be spending the rest of the evening in purple eye-liner, purple and blue highlighter and a dark lippy.
Happy Friday! Cheers! 🥂 🍾

nothing wrong with purple eyeliner 😐
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Not at all!! Currently got a metallic one, wore pale purple to work today!

8 hour day march for the workers to have a day of their own; which was disrupted by Moomba for the small business owners to have a day of their own; which was disrupted by the Grand Prix for the Millionaires and Billionaires to have a day of their own.

Extra long weekend for this little duck!

Another day of reading reddit till work is finished.
Lame.
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Thinking I’ll do drag of Poison Ivy, inspired by Uma Thurmans portrayal.
It’s already glamourous but I reckon I can glam it up even more. Gonna thrift and alter some clothes from Savers, and add the fake vines and roses I bought from the dollar store.
I dunno if I want to do the body suit though, maybe short-shorts onesie leotard thing, maybe a skirt, definitely knee high boots.
Gonna be this year’s project, maybe I wear it to PAX or Supernova lol
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Have a great long weekend, guys 🍺

Borrowed a stapler removler from a woman’s desk at work because I have some staplers to removle

I love this. There’s a saying to this about the simplest things but I’m too drunk right now. 👍
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 days ago
The fruit & veg box has been delivered. There are some wildly disparate potato sizes this time, and some annoyingly long carrots that don’t quite fit in my carrot container.
The grapes are delicious and it was a struggle to not just eat them all for breakfast.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 3 days ago
It’s been a good year for grapes so far. Have been enjoying the black and sapphire grapes immensely. This year’s stone fruit - not so much.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Went to a market with my kids last weekend and both of them spent the whole time tucking into the grapes we bought
SituationCake@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Had a terrible nights sleep woke up with a head ache. Decided breakfast will be hot cross bun with artery clogging amount of butter and a strong latte and it’s helped significantly.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I always say a slutty amount of butter, thanks to Smeg from the old DT.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 3 days ago
I like it. From now on, it will be a slutty amount of butter.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Amen. What kind of hot cross bun?
Hope you feel better soon!
SituationCake@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Standard fruit bun, but it was from a fancy bakery so it was extra delicious, they do not hold back in the spices!
calhoon2005@aussie.zone 2 days ago
The only way I can get my Garmin to charge.
spoiler
Can’t afford a new one so I guess this’ll need to do
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I have a garmin and I can’t imagine how this works.
Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Looks like one of the older style chargers where the back of the watch basically clips into a plate, rather than being shaped more like a typical “plug”.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 days ago

I’m watching “Glory” with Matthew Broderick, I’ve been meaning to watch for quite a while, was able to find a collectors disc with all the commentaries. documentaries and music score. Yesss.
I feel this is going to be just as moving as watching The Civil War by Ken Burns.
( and for all the people angry about what is happening
fighting is bound to happen, America is aspirational, they constantly struggle for change and betterment, and there are those who don’t want that to happen )
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 days ago
yeah. I cried

AnySoftKeyboard is working now. I was playing with the settings, it crashed, and now it works
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Work has become such a busy time for me before a long weekend or holiday. Not that it’s being forced on me, I’ve just figured out it’s a good opportunity for us to have things ready agrees of time. Pump the budget a bit and I get plenty of interaction and leads

TV review. DTF St Louis
The cringe factor is thru the roof. Cringe in just about every respect. Which is quite a feat when you consider the vulgar times we live in. Also, nearly everyone is an idiot.
So it’s very realistic.
