    Gonna take me a while to get used to this format but I’m lubed up and ready.

    Also the weather is so shitty today.

      I keep thinking someone picked the ugly room for this meeting. I’ve had a bad back the past week so I’m just being bitchy but I’m gonna try to be more cheery because I’m feeling a little better.

        Yeap, this definitely has the “meeting room without a view” vibe to it. But hey, at least there was one for us all to book?

          Haha. With the 90s prints on the wall and the fake plant in the corner that’s definitely had liquid in it.

            Oh, there’s gotta be an inspiration poster for sure - like, a whale cresting the water with the words “Limitless” underneath. And even though there’s no natural light in there, the picture *still *looks faded.

        Boo for bad backs!!! Hope it clears up soon. Good reminder for me to go see my physio actually.

        Need some maintenance.

        Yeah I’m debating on putting the fireplace on. Might do it at lunch and keep it stoking for the day.

      Yeah not much about this site gets me fired up and ready to go tbh. But it’s better than nothing!

        I’m still running reddit for some other subs, but it seems that many are just going dark for longer or permanent.

        We’ll find other ways to kill time for sure.

          Yeah my Reddit accounts still active, but the feed is pretty bleak! No daddit or bestofredditorupdates.

            The Leafs sub is gone, hockey is still there but I’ll see how it goes. Season just ended to it’ll be slow for a while. Hopefully the good shit will migrate over to this side of the net.

            For now I’ll continue posting updates on my neighbour’s lawn habits (he’s out there right now digging something)

            I really miss BORU! I stopped reading AITA because of all the creative writing exercises on there, but BORU was the good alternative.

            i thought i was like ‘meh fuck reddit it mostly sucks anyway’ but didn’t realise how much checking a few rotating niche/hobby subs was part of my daily internet. there isn’t really an alternative for some of them

        Kind of reminds me of hackernews, with its minimalistic look.

        I put the ducted on this morning only cause the kids are home from school. Once they’re up they’ll be forced to put on oodies and imbibe warm drinks.

        Damn cost of living and shit…
