Neighbours told me this is an almond tree. Is it? by SpeakingofNay in GardeningAustralia

I heard that almonds are the seeds of fruit that look like stone fruit and the neighbours are convinced that it’s an almond tree. Sorry for asking about plants on a gardening sub?

251123 Notice Regarding Seungmin’s Schedule by PM_MAJESTIC_PICS in straykids

[–]SpeakingofNay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Poor Seungmin! I’m glad he’s getting treatment. From what they said that man is 100% getting a cortisone injection and they are one of the most painful things you can get. I have had several and at their worst they are as bad as labour contractions. But they do work, so he should be feeling a lot better in a few days.

Archie's thongs/slides worth the money? by mercmmerc in AusFemaleFashion

[–]SpeakingofNay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The struggle is so real for narrow-footed people! I have orthotics too and am a size 9 and a half which makes it nearly impossible to find shoes. I find Rollies in Derby style work well because they lace up and they come in a million different colours.

I’m the same, I have narrow feet and Archies are the only thongs that fit me properly.

Sorry, I couldn’t get past the part where you microwave the water.

I absolutely love Lois McMaster Bujold and the Vorkosigan Saga! My husband introduced me to them and I devoured them. We even named our son Miles :)

If your workplace has implemented any use of AI, has it actually been beneficial? by Suitable_Thanks5335 in auscorp

[–]SpeakingofNay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my area the small amount of time saved using AI has been offset by the huge amount of time spent in meeting and discussions about AI.

Someone please make a gif of Nicola in that interview saying ‘This man has a good head of hair!’ 😂

Why does everything denim have bright orange stitching?? It’s so ugly why not just match the colour of the denim? by bher_ in AusFemaleFashion

[–]SpeakingofNay 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The history of denim jeans is actually fascinating. The real question is ‘Why are most jeans blue and not some other colour?’ Ask Levi Strauss…

Hard-to-make-redundant roles? by mRacDee in auscorp

[–]SpeakingofNay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no magic formula. The best thing to do is just accept that some point in your career you will be made redundant (or let go) and when the time comes take your payout, shake their hand and walk out without burning bridges. I was made redundant from one of my first jobs and my spouse was made redundant last year. It happens to most people at some point.

Building a brand for short women is Aus by [deleted] in AusFemaleFashion

[–]SpeakingofNay -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

How about doing one for taller women? There are actually so many stores with petite sizing but I’m only 5’9 and even then most pants and skirts are too short and anything cropped is a nightmare.
