    Our daughter, our only child, cherished baby girl is out on a date. Don’t worry, she’s keeping us up to date. Plus I have life 360. I know exactly where she is.🥺

      If she (you) need assistance, let us know

      Happy to rock up with islander uncles when needed.

        Thanks. This kid screams nerd (I’ve seen pix) drives a suburu, is into D n D and looks after old people. OMG. I can easily scare him with a baseball bat.

          Good to know.

          In any case, if you need a bunch of 100kg+ gospel singing bros to show up let us know.

          Otherwise, we can protect him too.

      I’m sorry but isn’t it a bit creepy that you location-track your child like this? I’m glad that I grew up before that was a thing my parents could do.

        No one cares what you think or how you grew up.

        You know nothing about this person and their family and yet you’re judging them based on a single comment.

        Your arrogance is almost impressive if it weren’t so obnoxious.

        Weird and gross to do to a partner (like my ex did to me, basically forced me to download life360 and then would still accuse me of cheating 🤦🏼‍♀️), not so weird to do with one’s child, especially if they are underage.

        There’s a lot of nasty rhetoric going around from boys and men regarding women and girls, it’s safer knowing where their kid is and with whom.

          My household uses life 360, and it’s come in handy. If one of us need to be picked up, we don’t have to yell on the phone trying to give out directions. It’s also good for the female safety part.

          I dunno, I think we as a society have been restricting the rights of teenagers more and more. I’ve helped a lot of young adults access resources to escape from less than stellar parents unfortunately.

    The face of “turn the fucking music down you woke me up!”

    I have 2 offers!!! Hoping number 3 comes through but probably not.

    That’s ok though!

          Hopefully they don’t leave it so late that you lose the other 2 offers though one of them sounded really bad.

    I’m feeling for the people who went Laneway, they would be getting soaked right now.

      I got fucking soaked. We ended up leaving before the headliner. Got ponchos but they didn’t do much.

      Too much pushing and shoving and mud, and friend got very overstimulated.

    It was a toss up between goon and coffee so I combined them together so I chose coffee

    I’m drinking piña coladas
    While watching exposés
    Of speedrunning cheaters
    Breaking rules of the games
    And it’s narrated by an Aussie
    But from Queensland they are
    But they’re actually quite funny
    So I’ll forgive that faux pas

    Heading back to melbs today.

    Haven’t been back since xmas. Gonna be a shock going through the CBD. Always blows my mind down here you only see a few people daily (usually on the foreshore / beach / shops) but people go out of their way to interact. Had more convos with randos down here in the last month than I have in the last 2 years in melbs.

    I say bring back the rando convo.

          I had the same problem. Actually when I hit late 40s lots less random weird people spoke to me compared to when I was younger. Using being an invisible middle aged woman to my benefit lol.

              I can’t find the article I’m looking for, but I love the story of the older Aussie woman artist who decided to make a social commentary about how women of this age are frequently invisible by illegally putting up great big posters of her artwork in public places (in Ballarat and Bendigo I think). She would turn up in a hi vis vest and just put up her posters on public infrastructure without a permit and nobody ever stopped her or asked any questions. She got away with it for ages as I recall.

      I always get found by people with dementia. I must look like I have the answers for them. Either that or I’ve worked too long with oldies and can spot it a mile away.
