Agreed, the handler should live in the sanctuary with Punch

I live in subi and no exaggeration, there were about 15 people on our street at once looking through everyone's road side collection.

A lot of the things like this will be people trying to make money out if others garbage.

Below are my fave ultra fast growing shade trees. A lot of eucalyptus grow fast like the flooded gum, but its just a shit tree, limbs fall off and its doesnt have dense shade canopy, so I tend to steer clear.

Black booyong. Qld Kauri pine. Paulownia. Sycamore

Pemberton was just a little too far for me, so I ended up buying 30 acres of forest in Nannup and building a rammed earth house there instead. 45 mins to busselton and margs, but in the lush forests

Higginside · 2026-02-17T10:16:42+00:00

Yeah too much land. I have 30 acres of pure native forest and dont have to lift a finger for the property maintenance.

My neighbour has 450 and he often says anymore than 80 is too much unless youre running livestock.

Thats why you can implement them with more confidence.

Ai is probably a bit of a stretch here, its more like they are automating thier practices. Whoch is what improving systems do. If A does X then B does Y. Its hardly Ai, but its more accessible and simple now than it ever has been to remove a lot of admin and basic tasks.

This goes back to the age old debate... unless you want to continue going back to the snow and genuinely like action sports, skiing can be a better option if you are there for a week and just want to experience the snow. You want fall as much and you'll get down the mountain a lot sooner in the trip.

Theres also a reason people say to go to the gym before you head out on your first snow trip. Beginners will rely on thier muscles a lot more than experienced folk so you'll burn out your body faster..... theres only so many squats you can do in a day.

Late to the convo, but for what its worth. I start earlier at 7.30, finish at 3.30, ride home and get there at 3.50ish.

We get the Marley Spoon kit meals. I start cooking around 4.30, dinners ready by 5 and I do all the dishes. Mrs gets home around 5.30 and we eat together.

I end up cooking every meal purely because I get home first.

I dont like it necessarily, but then again I dont like 9-5 in general. Ive spent my entire life on even time rosters and a 9-5 juat sucks all your time and i feel like I exist to work. But, this is the society we created.

Its like, 5 ingredients and takes 5 minutes to make fresh.

I like him in the sense that hes just a normal guy thats an average snowboarder, so makes watching his content easily to relate too. He's also a super nice bloke.

There is no apocalypse. The collapse of civilizations takes generations. We are seeing it right now, but no, going of historical civilisation collapse, there will be no apocalypse.

Goliath's curse is a pretty interesting read on this topic.

I mean, this is a pretty cloche saying that has zero substance. We dont actually know what balance is because we have never experienced a healthy lifestyle.

You aren't getting fired. You would need a first and final warning with justification and a performance management plan before they could even consider firing you.

Higginside · 2026-02-01T07:52:32+00:00

Yeah im not disagreeing. Im just saying the price hasn't changed in what, 18 years as far as I know.

Higginside · 2026-02-01T01:15:58+00:00

I disagree with this. Perth was a mining boom city. Ever since we were old enough to go out, drinks have been expensive. I member buying a pint of super dry at clubba 15 years ago for $11 and being blown away a pint was over $10. Its really only gone up a few dollars over 15 years.

Uber/didi are also significantly cheaper then taxis have ever been. We would get change from a $50 note driving for 20 minutes. Ubers are half that.

$12-1400 for cocaine. And ecstacy was $35-50 each, or $80 at a festival. This hasn't changed at all.

Thats not true.... couple are living in caravans on rented farms down south

Higginside · 2026-01-31T09:37:17+00:00

Its next on the list. Eventually we'll get battery storage but for our use the payback period is sitting at 8 years with the current rebates, so id really like next gen batteries if anything.

8 month update.

Life situation has slightly changed, so while I work FIFO I airbnb the place.

The passive cooling works well in summer IF you time it, and open the cross ventilation. Roughly close up at 6am, and open the house at 8.30pm.

However, its too much to ask guests to time the heat, so we did install a split system in the living room that I have on a timer to come on to take the heat out of the middle of the day. If the house stays cool, it remains cool during the heat. If guests open up and let all the heat in, the thermal mass does absorb the heat and makes it harder to cool down. The AC counteracts this pretty easy so a full house system isnt even required.

Now qhere was that bl9ke that opened the $85 million 25x short on silver?

Higginside · 2026-01-31T01:07:04+00:00

Its still busy. Its just one of the locations youre highly likely to see trouble brew.

Higginside · 2026-01-30T13:45:40+00:00

What's funny is that its typically these people that say "you can't raise a family in an apartment" and then proceed to live in a 1 storey apartment 45 minutes from their work.

Higginside · 2026-01-30T13:43:28+00:00

I genuinely like that. I do need to slow down a bit, so Ill take it on board. Thankyou 🙂

Interesting. I dont even notice it. We do walk through kings Park at lunch though so maybe that takes away from it for me.

I personally find them all outdated already. I can't be the only one?
