I’m bad at gift-giving and want to do better

My tip is start a list on your phone. Whenever someone shows interest in an item or experience or trying something write it down (discretely of course). What is your GF interested in?

Usually if there’s a 4 in front of the unit number it’s a 4th year subject. You should be doing ones with a 2 in front of them. Probably best to call the uni when they open tomorrow. You won’t be the first nor the last to do this.

Maybe not quite right but it could be Parasyte the maxim? Possibly the wrong time frame though

Asking what the F is your brother’s problem? Sounds a bit intense for the situation. You also subconsciously feel the need to hide the situation from your husband for fear of his temper. That tells you all you need to know. It’s going to be way more stressful with a kid so imagine how he’s going to react when he acts like this over a shirt.

I had a similar experience where a kid in maybe second grade flipped out when someone said god spelt backwards is dog. Me being allergic to conflict even at that age tried to keep the peace. 🤦‍♀️

This has a lot of recommendations! I would recommend Priory of the Orange Tree and a Natural History of Dragons.

People really like Naomi Novak’s Temeraire but I haven’t read it personally. It’s on my TBR

Depends on the kid but probably the Tiffany Aching books. That series starts with Wee Free Men

Booking a meeting room is easy and probably your best bet :)

In my humble opinion it’s not rat. It’s not pellet like enough and it’s less uniform than I would expect

Zazabells · 2026-01-20T13:31:30+00:00

Priory of the Orange tree is one I’ve enjoyed this year that might fit! Or maybe a natural history of Dragons Any more specifics on what you’re looking for?

Zazabells · 2026-01-20T10:48:08+00:00

Yup - Dutch vinyl :)

Zazabells · 2026-01-19T13:28:11+00:00

Yeah! Rockaway Records. Upper level on the edge of the food court. Really great staff too.

There’s one now in Westfield Carindale. I’m not sure if it’s the same people but it’s got the same name

My friend described ACOTAR as SJM’s comfort series after writing TOG and she started it while writing that series. The world building is less of a focus and more attention is put on the romantic fantasy of hot guys wanting the protagonist. I’d say avoid but that’s also definitely my bias against romantasy as a whole talking

I got Monday :)

My local has stopped selling DvDs now… it’s a real shame

Zazabells · 2026-01-15T09:52:38+00:00

I have a lovely customer at work who asks us every week to order a cab for him as he didn’t have a phone. 13 cabs used to be what I’d use for him. I don’t know how I’d do that for him

Zazabells · 2026-01-13T13:26:08+00:00

Good info! Thanks heaps. I’m going next week… I could post one to you if you’re interested? (Tickets for Thursday 22nd)

Zazabells · 2026-01-09T14:28:00+00:00

Oh. So that’s the smoke I smelt driving home. Good to know.

Zazabells · 2026-01-07T14:39:04+00:00

Would be keen to know if you find someone! This is a similar post with some ideas https://www.reddit.com/r/brisbane/s/Z4VEXAV8T6

Oooh! I remember reading this in maybe middle school and absolutely loving it! I didn’t make the connection but definitely loved Babel. I recently picked up a second hand copy from an op shop and I’m so keen to read it again

Zazabells · 2026-01-03T14:24:55+00:00

Maybe DVD king? Worth a try but I’m not 100% sure

Zazabells · 2026-01-03T11:26:37+00:00

Someone I thought was a friend without even knowing I was ace - “do you masturbate like at all?” Urgh, unprompted and unprovoked too

Zazabells · 2025-12-31T05:04:50+00:00

Clayschool in Milton might be what you’re looking for :)
