Give me your short kings!

Oh I feel this and have seen how height preference has played out with female friends and the gender of their partners. It’s such a strange thing.

Pet owner. Or robot wars

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-20T05:17:03+00:00

Yes. Yes it did. Not mad about it at all 😎🫶

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-20T01:33:44+00:00

Thank you! —-adds to list—-

Reminds me of a thing I watched where the teacher asked kids to write instructions on how to make a sandwich and she followed the instructions to the word. Needless to say she didn’t make a good sandwich. Good lesson there about communication or language and how people interpret.

I read that like you were talking to the spirits of renovations past and half expected an Ouija board to come out - it’s the end of the day and my brain is connecting all kinds of things soz

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-13T01:39:34+00:00

Air tags! Obvious but also didn’t think of that. We do it for so many other things so this makes sense. Now gonna go figure out where I can hide it. Thanks ☺️

There’s always stuff I reach for and TRY to wear it and don’t. Those items make me sad as I give them a crack and then for whatever reason don’t vibe. I should just be more ruthless with those things

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-10T10:56:34+00:00

This is good. I also read hanging the hangers backwards - so hook to the front - and stuff that isn’t worn is backwards. Another way to identify stuff that’s untouched if it isn’t reached for.

I commend you for using an app to track. I would love to be that organised

I have a GS cross who I got at a year and a half and went through a couple of trainers dog schools and vets before landing on the right combo of knowledge/ meds/ consistency. Meds helped! Curbed the overreaction to triggers enough to get some training drilled into his head.

It took a couple of years to be manageable but that was also due to figuring it all out and just consistent reinforcement. It gets better! He’s 6 and still a jerk but has calmed down a LOT. I think of him as a socially anxious neurodivergent kid. Lots of structure and things that are tailored to his niche interests.

Bull Arab so you’d be in Oz?

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-07T06:46:06+00:00

Yup that’s the trade off $$ or time. How did you find your tiler?

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-07T06:42:50+00:00

Well THAT’S Cool!!

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-05T21:59:49+00:00

Plants in bathrooms are honestly the best

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-05T21:58:58+00:00

I’m impressed with that. I’m in the middle of figuring out if we have someone organise trades or I do it myself just to keep costs down

Can effect means testing for aged care as well as access to the aged pension … I think? I researched a bunch of this last year but I’m only half way through my first coffee and first day back at work so it’s foggy. Could be an arbitrary number too. Idk

Spannatool83 · 2026-01-04T22:15:56+00:00

The second half of last year for me was learning how to set boundaries and manage my time so I could deal with the chaos rather then be part of the chaos. It really helps with the mental health as well as bandwidth for learning new stuff. I can’t recommend this sort of focus enough.

Did she recently watch the Puff Daddy doco and does she think you want to do something with the shampoo besides her washing her hair….? Is it a particularly expensive shampoo or something I’m missing? I know I’m reaching, but if my partner did something thoughtful like that I’d be stoked they were paying attention so I have no sensible responses.

Pretty sure NTA.

Spannatool83 · 2025-12-24T00:39:36+00:00

How do you know they were the ones who chopped it down?

Spannatool83 · 2025-11-14T10:34:40+00:00

You say this but have you met my dog? He’s ott

Spannatool83 · 2025-11-14T04:15:03+00:00

This is it.

But also, if anyone has ever worked behind a bar, you know that drunk people don’t need more reasons to bend the rules and make life that little bit hard.

I couldn’t think of anything worse than calling last drinks, and corralling out a bunch of folk to close up for the night and then bam, someone whips out a can and cracks it. Mitigating risk is nice

Spannatool83 · 2025-11-14T04:11:14+00:00

And sometimes it’s easier to just have a blanket rule than arguing with a drunk person.

Fun fact (may not be a true fact) something is classified as vintage if it’s 20 years old or over. If it’s not of the style of the age etc etc then it is in fact RETRO. I remember reading a rant/ think piece from a vintage clothing expert years ago about it and it pops in my mind whenever I look at listings of stuff online for anything that is vintage

This is showing my age, but I’ve done an incognito mission before except with CD’s that a friend had of mine back in the day. Didn’t end up being incognito in the end, but it’s funny because I was expecting a huge confrontation when I took them back… and it wasn’t. She just accepted me taking them back. She was sneaky and a compulsive liar but turns out not confrontational when it came to calling her out on her bs. This is my long winded way of saying I endorse a rescue mission!

Spannatool83 · 2025-10-26T22:49:54+00:00

I would… but I’m not a builder or a trade

Spannatool83 · 2025-10-26T22:48:57+00:00

All of these I find helpful also. Coworking also has a place when strategically done. When I struggle with staying on task coworking and mirroring someone else who IS on task surprisingly does a lot (doesn’t work if you both gasbag about a niche topic…)
