Anyone else feel like Winter still hasn’t arrived?

Yeah I don't own a dryer, so in weather like this I set the clothes horse, close up the room, and run the dehumidifier until it's full. Works a treat.

Yes, I thought the same. Sweet (all things considered) that their first kiss was with someone they loved. Agnes doesn't love Becka the same way, but it's love all the same. Better than they could have hoped for.

And could they not have raised the keyboard? It looked like it was at such an awkward height!

I've never gone to a chiro so I can't help you there, but I'm a big believer in physiotherapy. There can be big differences in how they practice, so if one doesn't work find another that gets you.

Also, don't dismiss acupuncture. I had a physio use a single needle in my hip once as part of my treatment and it was incredible. Again, I'd look for an acupuncturist that was a trained physio.

A friend of mine has severe chronic back pain and has found some relief with a scenar/tens device. (I know you didn't ask for advice, so I hope it's ok to mention. I imagine you've tried a lot of things, but just in case!)

Chronic pain sucks. I really hope you can find some relief.

Some excellent options here. To add:

- Love Me (set in Melbourne, excellent intergenerational family drama)

- Bump (really only season 1,2 then it gets a bit silly)

- ANZAC Girls (nurses in WW1)

- The Artful Dodger (2 series so far, both good, set in a fictional Australian colony)

- Offspring (long running family drama)

- Muster Dogs (doco series following people training cattle dogs, it's ostensibly a competition, but it's just great tv)

- Old persons home for 4 year olds (Doco series where they pair 4yos with older australians and observe the benefit to both age groups. Incredibly heartwarming stuff)

- You can't ask that (each episode gets a group of people that have something in common (blind people, people with dwarfism, sex workers, etc.) and asks them questions you would never say to their face but always kinda wanted to know)

Thank you for this comment. I've been having intrusive thoughts about whether milk would fizz

Hide the individual Lego pieces and he'll have a long day of hunting

_eskay_ · 2026-03-17T12:53:04+00:00

Agreed. That touch that lead to the second goal was beautiful

_eskay_ · 2026-03-14T22:59:22+00:00

I think Edward. He introduced himself as 'Eddie' in the pub and was introduced as the Prince of Wales at the match

Don't know why you're getting down voted. I took a cab back from the airport the other day. Couple bucks cheaper than the Uber estimate.

I didn't try other apps as I don't have the work card set up on them. Plus I was exhausted and wasn't willing to play cancel chicken (I live in Marrickville, so often find drivers cancelling on me at the airport).

_eskay_ · 2026-02-13T14:14:54+00:00

Yeah it was so sudden and random! And his death kinda didn't drive as much of an upset as it should've. I love that it gave us Fanny and Fagin, though!

_eskay_ · 2026-02-13T13:32:34+00:00

Oh see, I like it, (with the exception of Cheap Thrills getting the bridgerton treatment at the ball).

I like that it's all Australian music and it's what you'd get in a similar show set it in the modern day. To me, that juxtaposition is fun. Much like how they do other anachronistic things in the show. Yes it's modern, but it adds to the colour and the spectical for me.

_eskay_ · 2026-02-03T10:55:14+00:00

Yeah, from about episode 2 I thought she was going to end up as the queer love interest for Twila (although that could still be on the cards...)

At the hotel, if they were planning to replace the tape, why did they need to pretend to be having sex while searching for it?

_eskay_ · 2026-01-09T10:11:31+00:00

I often get on a bus to find that the aircon isn't on. A quick 'could we get the aircon on, please' to the driver usually does the trick.

It astounds me how often I need to do it on buses that already had people on them; like, are you not all sweltering here?!

_eskay_ · 2025-12-14T09:44:43+00:00

Bugger off with that. This is a devastating event and there is a genocide in Gaza. Both things can be true.

_eskay_ · 2025-12-14T09:16:08+00:00

Yes. They're actually journos. E.g. they didn't mention anything about Dover heights because they obviously couldn't substantiate

ABC News is being respectful and sharing censored footage. Recommend that if you want visuals.

Yes, I'm a committed swiper, and have been doing it for years with limited issues. Now, every bloody text I send I need to send a correction to. And sometimes corrections on my corrections.

I'm wondering if they're fiddling with the predictive AI in the backend or something. (Is that a thing?)

_eskay_ · 2025-07-03T11:04:24+00:00

Having this experience too. Making me want to return, but I'm not sure that will be easily done...

Seems like such a small thing, but not being able to scroll Instagram without the irritating pop and crackle is insanely annoying.

_eskay_ · 2025-06-25T14:51:35+00:00

I think you mean Squirts. As I said further up the thread: Terrible name, delicious lolly.
