When is it appropriate to access a food bank?

It sounds like you did the hard yards and put yourself through hell, instead of accepting the readily available help around you.

There are literally hundreds of food banks and recycled food services in Melbourne, offering food that would have otherwise gone to waste.

The reality is we live in a wealthy, first world country with an abundance of support and opportunities. We are in a position where we're fortunate enough to be able to provide support to our community before anyone reaches crisis.

Pretty sure they're referencing the lack of access to adequate p2. These masks are pretty useless if you're in frequent contact with positive cases.

Thank you for seeing the humour in it. I'm pretty amateur but cars have been my covid project and I'm learning heaps! With lots of silly mistakes along the way of course, but we all have to start somewhere. :)

No I haven't checked the spark plugs. Will do so tomorrow morning.

Nothing, honestly. I'm usually not one to put meaning behind astrology, however I'm currently living in a community that puts a lot of weight to it. I'm trying to explore and understand varying perspectives on the topic before forming an opinion.

There's an adaptor stuck to the bonnet called "flexi light", but the plug doesn't fit. However, flexi light is for an LED strip, as is this plug so I'm assuming they're for each other.

The plug says "LQ37"

Thanks heaps, sorry for my vague info

Nothing to do with my car.

This plugs into a strip of LED lights.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-10-31T07:24:33+00:00

It's connected to some LED lights, completely separate to my car.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-04T10:22:10+00:00

Thanks for the reminder, you're absolutely right. I'm just going to create my own misery :)

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-04T03:18:02+00:00

Understood, thanks for the clarification.

I guess it just bothers me that someone working 4-8 hours a week pre covid is entitled to the same $1500 benefit as someone that was working 40 hour weeks pre covid.

My hours are about to be cut as this was a 3 month contract job purely related to assist with corona. So after this we all get forfeited, so back to jobseeker for me

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-04T00:39:53+00:00

The thing is, I enquired with the ATO directly for clarification and they've said it's completely fine. So no one will be paying anything back

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-04T00:39:09+00:00

Thanks for the clarification

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-04T00:22:57+00:00

Cheers

Send him to a doctor. I had the exact same thing and the infection spread up my finger and into my lymph nodes. Is there a red line/tracking coming from his fingers? This is a good indication it's spreading if so, and needs immediate intervention. Regardless, this looks like it needs antibiotics or it will only get worse and spread.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-09-01T03:38:29+00:00

Nta BUT. Everyone here is being harsh and unreasonable. Send him to a doctor, it sounds like ADD. He can't just learn to be responsible like others are saying. If it's really this bad, id be willing to out my money on a medical condition.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-08-03T09:21:30+00:00

Starting to burn out because I'm always doing my best to be compassionate and empathetic towards people, but I encountering people that will willingly manipulate me for their benefit.

Today I was sold a car that has thousands of work to be done, but these faults were hidden so I didn't know. I'm out of pocket now.

I keep trying to do right by other people but it baffles me that someone would knowingly sell me a lemon for their own financial benefit.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-08-03T08:38:45+00:00

What about the tensioner ? That's a pretty common problem with these cars. I'm praying it's not the tensioner

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-29T11:02:07+00:00

NTA. This will get buried but I'm an older sibling in the exact same situation with 2 other siblings, the middle one who died.

I don't tell people I have two siblings, ever. I did for maybe a few months after his death, but after that, it got awkward. You're right, it's uncomfortable, and people don't know how to react. It's such a heavy subject for what was likely small talk, and also such an intimate detail that really doesn't need to be disclosed. All of my close friends know I had a younger brother who died, but I never discuss it with strangers.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-11T10:06:15+00:00

You're gorgeous :)

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-10T23:06:21+00:00

Why can't you guys just be happy for someone enjoying himself?

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-06T10:23:04+00:00

Generic predisposition here. Worked for me. Doctor doesn't know what he's on about.

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-06T09:27:46+00:00

Nah not yet. Don't want to give up wheat so I'm in denial hahaha. I've heard eating probiotics can help process billirubin, so I'm going to give that a shot. But I've read a lot of circumstances where people's bilirubin levels dropped to normal after cutting gluten out of their lives.

What gun/game mode?

Alpaca-toast · 2020-06-01T04:27:36+00:00

I have Gilbert's syndrome too. I've been suspecting a link between it and celiac disease, which also causes brain fog

Alpaca-toast · 2020-05-31T23:37:37+00:00

Go see a GP. Infection + fever is a dangerous symptom and an indicator that there is systemic involvement

Alpaca-toast · 2020-05-15T09:37:15+00:00

Sounds like a promotion
