      Nice outdoor seating area! With that lovely garden bed to look over. I see a fire pit too.

    So everyone had a shitty sleep then.

    At least tomorrow looks like a normal day, then a couple more days of this bullshit.

      I feel like I want to take Friday off but at the same time it might be a waste if I don’t have much work to do.

    Next door to me is selling up, and they spent the long weekend clearing out the house. Including putting an elderly and derelict vinyl lounge suite out on the footpath, but no-one took it. I’ve just watched a compacting rubbish truck eat the whole lounge suite - impressively loud noises.

    I had the strangest dream. I was in a room with people and we were all hooked up to some kind of device.

    We had to have our body temperature lowered to the point of freezing so we could survive what was about to happen. I think we were supposed to phase through the floor and go somewhere.

    We were all sitting on what looked like a kids adventure playground set.

    There was someone with me, someone I cared about (but don’t recognise in real life), she tells me it’s going to be OK and I have to do this.

    I have a lot or trust in this person, maybe even love, but I can’t remember much past this point. I start feeling really cold.

    We had to go through with this. It was a life or death/end of the world scenario. Something bad was going to happen if we didn’t all do this.

    God I love dreams.

    I had a good sleep. The fan was less than a metre from my head so I think that helped.

    I got maybe 2 hours of sleep and now I’m wide awake. Was it the pizza? I don’t know. I’m chugging water to see if it helps.

    E: that was some very poor sleep with a conga line of unsettling dreams - including having my mother snooping around on my laptop while I’m pretending to sleep and trying to see if I’ve sent in forms to stay in uni longer. what

    Also various natural disasters, erotica gone wrong, slips and falls… note to self do not eat a whole pizza before bed

    Do NOT look at your super account. Not that you’re supposed to anyway.

      Even more important, don’t panic, sell everything /move to cash and crystalize the losses. Super is a long term investment and the losses are always followed (eventually) by gains, if you are out of the market when that happens and have to buy back in when it is more expensive you lose even more. And if the situation is worse than that and the world as we know it is actually ending your super balance won’t matter anyway.

          That is more stressfull, but even if you are nearing retirement most of your savings generally have a longer time frame. Generally you would be moving some of the money to a lower risk investment in the leadup to retirement as the investment timeline gets shorter, into things like bonds which have been going up.

        Nah, it’s time to put it all in crypto. I’ve moved all my investments into Trump coins and I’m going to be rich any minute now.

      You could say it’s a hill you’ll die on.

      Don’t worry I already have my coat and I’ll close the door on the way out.

    I reckon it was someone on here who recommended Talon to get rid of ants, ages ago. That stuff is magic.

    Last night they were mounting a full-blown invasion of the kitchen. This morning, not a sign of them.
