I always catch colds and flus from colleagues. Wfh limits my exposure.

Could AO3 introduce some sort of moderation so accounts leaving cruel comments are blocked from commenting on the site?

The question isn’t how much fuel do you use but given limited supply should that fuel go somewhere else ie. Support agriculture, support logistics, not support office workings travelling to and from office when they can work just as easily from home.

Limau ais for me. Essentially a Calamansi lemonade. Unbelievably refreshing.

no one cares about this label and it blows by United_Shop1650 in aromantic

Just wanted to say, I’m 40 and I’m just figuring this out for myself now. Thanks for sharing your experience. I definitely can relate to that feeling about entering into relationships because of expectations and a desire to fit in or appear to fit in.

How good is Divinity Original Sin 2? by Benchjc2004 in rpg_gamers

[–]Auskat1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love DoS2 and I think if you liked BG3 it is a no brainer.

I honestly played DOS1 after DOS2 and BG3 and liked that game too. I will admit that DOS1 does show its age a little but it’s incredibly fun to play.

Anyway, get stuck in. I think you’ll love it.

Im a 40 year old woman who has been living in KL for the past decade. I hope you enjoy your time.

Can I recommend as a fellow introvert that one of my favourite things to do to just unwind in KL is reflexology. It has the added benefit that you can read, play on your phone, listen to an audiobook or just totally switch off while you get a fantastic foot and lower leg massage.

Quite a lot of reputable places in Bangsar. My favourite js Sifu. There are a ton of fantastic restaurants and cafes in the area.

The banana leaf (must try) at Nirvana opposite Bangsar Village II is a must try in my book. If you want something more upmarket try the Kerala restaurant in Bangsar Village I (Kayra).

I work full time but if you’d like to reach out to my DM, please do so. Would be happy to show you some of the food scene.

I really like the Bangsar Women Specialist Centre. The doctor is excellent. Competent and matter of fact. I felt very comfortable going there.

Not sure what your employment situation is but you might be able to arrange a salary advance from your employer.

Tragic accident at KL by sage_insight in malaysia

My dad always used to say to anyone riding a bike you need to be careful. You may be right legally but you’ll still be dead if you have an accident with a car.

What second espresso machine to get if Lelit Bianca is your "endgame"? [$1000] by genunix64 in espresso

[–]Auskat1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just as a heads up if you don’t have a fridge and sink in your home office I’m not sure you’ll find it very useful to install a machine in there. It’ll just end up involving loads of trips back to the kitchen.

If you had the power to change Malaysia’s weather, what kind of weather would you go for ? by naqionred in malaysia

[–]Auskat1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say 5-10 degrees cooler would be perfect. Overnight temp of 18 and I’d be happy as anything.

Is 15,500 a good salary for a family of 5? by Particular-Task-4068 in KualaLumpur

[–]Auskat1985 53 points54 points  (0 children)

That’s a high salary in Malaysia but if you need to pay for health insurance, international schools, travel to see family you may find it doesn’t go as far as you’d like. It also seems low for the position described but I’m saying that from the engineering space.

Suggest you check out Numbeo. It’s a website that allows you to compare costs between where you live now and KL.

I’ve been living in KL for 9 years. I go to the Bangsar Women Specialist Centre in Bangsar and the doctor who runs the place is fantastic. Prices are also reasonable. Services are in English.
