A mate of mine saw Albo at an RSL in Davenport last night. Anyone know why Tue prime minister is in Tasmania at the moment?

I love those places that give you a biscuit with your coffee. They always get a boost in my coffee selection mental algorithm

Could double bed sheets keep them together, or those coaster things for furniture you can get from bunnings?

Shadow of the Erdtree?

I think I’ll wear my slippers around the house all the time.

I got the kids some hot wheels cars and one is a stegosaurs. Essentially its a spike trap on wheels. Couple that with their puzzle pieces with little handles on them and there are a few nasty things to step on.

I want to avoid the very dad thing of stepping on one of the kids’ toys at an unfortunate moment

Keep it up and you might be able to make 6am thr regular time. Push through!

Create a generic cover letter/resume combo file and apply for a bunch of jobs through recruitment companies at the moment. It’s the end of the month so they’ll all be looking to maximise their commission. Aim for jobs that have been up for close to two weeks as well, they’ll be closing soon

90s kids will tell you it’s a Deftones song

I did this sort of thing the other day.

Went to press a bowl of Japanese curry against myself to hold it better, ended up flipping it onto me then dropping it. Most of it stayed in the bowl but I made a mess of my robe and the kitchen floor

I can’t wait. The days have been too short. Its getting dark at 4:30 right now

Saw a BYD as an insurance replacement vehicle just now. Smart move.

All the bad press can’t beat people driving one for a week if they’re as good as people say they are

I’ve been through this as well. I went through a stage where I could have multiple job interviews in a week, sometimes on the same day.

I could tell it was the end of the month because recruiters would start calling, and even in the middle of the month after job ads had been up for two weeks.

Then when you do progress a step employers want you to jump through more hoops than ever now. And they’re surprised when you push back because you either still have work or other things going on. I’m not going to give a business free labour on the off chance they hire me, I’ll do your exercises for you when I’m getting paid.

And all the platforms you need to sign up for. I use a password manager and some software shares the same URL, but accounts are separate. You either use a bunch of different passwords and can never tell which is which, or compromise yourself by using the same one over and over.

I know the applicant tracking platforms by look now, and I can tell which I can apply through easily and which will have problems with the way my resume is formatted. Some of the worst software I’ve ever used, the industry as a whole.

I get that feeling too. It would be possible to turn that regular barcode into a QR code and associate it with a Big W account.

You don’t get into debt with laybuy, you don’t get an item you’re then obligated to pay off, and you not get as aggressive fees for cancelling a laybuy

Did the old toy sale laybuy for Christmas at Big W.

Laybuy is surprisingly backward. You need to go in store to pay it off and they give you a receipt with a barcode you’re supposed to scan to do so

I wonder about this with Google Maps and Waze. They can find drivers shortcuts, but make residential roads so busy because the were never intended for that amount of traffic

Went to Panton Hill Winery today and it was like going to regional Italy.

I’d also say it was like going back in time, but from what I’ve heard regional Italy is already like going back in time.

My god, look at her. Imagine meeting her in person. I remember the Spinning Around music video came on Rage one time and I understood the appeal then.

The other dune books aren’t meant to be as good but it’s nice to revisit a style of writing where every move feels calculated and everyone says one thing and uses a tone that means something else.

I’ve never been a big series reader but I can appreciate going back to a familiar world and style of writing

I’ve been thinking about how Coles has introduced an egg buying limit due to bird flu and what it’s doing to cattle in the states.

We’ll probably end up with vegan diets, not because it’s the right thing to do, but because we completely destroy animal products through factory farming

Crazy how the US can just admit to things like this and nothing ever happens.

I think there was already some anti government psychosis the pentagon could have easily exacerbated. The anti Vax movement here was also supported by most of the Murdoch newspapers and TV channels as well.

I heard a good take about this on Chapo that most people are not used to government intervention being a good thing in their lives. Neoliberal governments have spent so long stepping back and trying not to be involved in things that they were ill equipped to step in when they had to and people weren’t used to having the government in their lives in that way
