  Being hulled up in my room unable to move has had me homesick for the outdoors for the last couple of days, so I’ve been watching someone hike the Appalacian Trail in the US and its so soothing. Also really wish we had more stuff like that here, I mean we have some long hikes but nothing like some of the ones they have over there.

    There’s the Great Ocean Walk and the Cradle mountain big walks.

      Both are on my bucket list! There’s also the Larapinta Trail which I think can take about a month. I honestly don’t think I could deal with the constant heat of hiking through Central Australia.

    Funny you should bring up the Appalacian Trail. I’ll be “completing” it sometime this afternoon. The Garmin app lets you do virtual expeditions.
    I’ve been on the Appalacian Trail since May 27. So it has taken 7.5 months to finish the thing!

    The Bibulmum Track in WA is 1,000km long. Hike from Albany to the Perth Hills. I don’t know of any walks in Australia that are longer than that one.

      I did half the bibbulmun track in one go about 6-7 years ago. Was an amazing experience. The Pacific Crest Trail is on my bucket list

    I’m sorry…are the first six words of your post a quote from an Adam Sandler album?

    Cause I’m pretty sure they are.

  I’m finally near the end of my interminable day of cleaning ahead of tomorrow’s rental inspection. The house is gleaming. I’m exhausted and trying not to get too negative about the indignity of renting in the current market and the inevitable rent increase notice in a month’s time and urgh.

  I changed my LinkedIn profile yesterday and set up alerts, and already got a hit - but it seems to be more of what depressed me at my old job, just being on the other side of it (in fact worse, because I have to be the bad guy and shoulder all the responsibility).

  Could maybe hack it if it was a short term contract to build towards better roles, but full time permanent would kill what’s left of my soul. I think I’ve seen this job advertised a few months ago anyway so there’s another red flag if the other guy left so quickly.

  Luckily I know someone who worked in a very similar role at the same org recently, so I shall get some inside info. See if I could do a hit and run; I do need the experience in local government and the cash would be good too before I think about moving interstate.

    See if you can find a round screw top plastic container at a variety store or Kmart. Then drill some holes in the lid.

  trying to find large plastic shaker bottles (like these) that are not sold by amazon. (Reason: Sick of barkeepers friend clumping)

  I have not found them thus far but I *have *found a place that will sell me a 3kg tin of nacho cheese and one that will sell me a box of replacement plastic grinder tops for pepper mills.

    I reuse bi carb containers. This one has cheap bi carb in it for cleaning

    After I finish the one in the cupboard I’ll use it for bar keepers friend.

    Large spice jars like McCormick have this lids like this too.

    Why not glass? Get yourself a giant jar of olives, eat olives and repurpose said jar. That’s what I do with my sourdough starter. And I don’t even eat olives, so I give them to my mum!

  Wikipedia seems to be down.

  I also just got hit with the Adblocker ban, was forced to allow ads rather than pay. Blast away, I’m still not buying any of the crap you recommend. Cunts. There’s an arms race going between the adblockers and Youtube so I might actually go and learn about it to paste in the latest script or whatever

  • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I had the YouTube adblock popup a few months ago but haven’t seen it in a while, rest assured the ublock origin and other active adblock communities are still on top of the cat and mouse game for now…

    But from what I’m reading it’s looking like a very good idea to switch to Firefox or its privacy-oriented offshoots rather than Chrome, as Google is apparently still heading in the direction of kneecapping Chrome extensions from being able to do what adblockers currently do (they received push back and it’s not as bad as originally proposed, but who’s to say they won’t try again)

      get off google in general as you can. We really shoulda taken the hint when they dropped the “don’t be evil”

  Been pretty quite to be honest. Despite being the weekend thinking about work a bit and how I can ‘do better’. Personal life is pretty meh so it’s a nice distraction. Also doing a lot of cooking at home (pulled pork, roast chicken, some soups with smoked ham hocks etc) so have a lot in reserve which is awesome.
