Hm. Someone I’ve never talked to with a bunch of mod removed comments (and a couple of identical ones) messaged me ‘hello’. Not to be rude but that seems mildly sus so that’s a block.

I don’t really like DMs at the best of times and usually keep them shut.

Did they start with the letter D?

Wasn’t me dude I swear. I only DM people telepathically

I like the analogy the man gave me while explaining fast charging and slow charging.

You can eat your meal fast or slow. It doesn't matter, you're still gonna get full but it's good to eat it slow if you can

Oh. Me nods. I get that.

Ps. He said other things but it didn't quite go in.

Why isn't frozen mirepoix a thing? In convenient sized sachets? We can purchase frozen everything else, why not that? It's just finely diced carrot, onion and celery. There's a marketing opportunity here - a sachet of mirepoix and a bag of good chook stock in the same pack - would save so much hassle assembling and chopping etc.

Anxiety has been bad today. I’m not even thinking about you know what. It’s just there with the rest of my life and everything is making it worse.

I forced myself to quickly go out for newspaper to line plant pots but they didn’t have any. Some dodgy characters around but luckily nothing came of it.

I’ve planted two of the largest zucchini seedlings out but ran out of potting mix and energy because those pots were pretty big. I don’t eat much or exercise enough for physical work like lifting and shoveling so now feeling kind of shaky… but I kind of had to move and do something.

Also they’re growing fast and I don’t think I can keep all of them.

I wish you could get smaller size seed packs or a bundle with like a few seeds of each type. Maybe a seed library could sort me out but I think that’s enough ‘outside’ for now.

We went to Gami last night and the robot there delivered our food to the table. Of course I spoke to it. Several times.

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Not gonna lie...Gami has taken a nose dive in terms of quality and quantity 😥

I've got the mic plugged in. I have a charming/ atrocious singing voice. What should I wake the neighbours up with?
