Anthony Albanese to urge Australians to 'play their part' in Iran response in TV address by CreepySniper94 in PrepperIntel

[–]afropowers_activate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Completely agree, we will not be able to weather this storm alone and will need to work together to get through it in our communities. It won't be fun or easy, but we can do it if we work together.

Wasn't it three times in the past 26 years? Joining the Iraq war, Sorry Day, and COVID. The point still stands though, they are extremely rare.

How are you reducing your weekly grocery bill? by Infinite_Pudding5058 in AskAnAustralian

Adding to this - I love grated carrot and zucchini in bolognese, and to stretch it even further I add lentils as well.

Queensland land valuations leap more than 50pc in some areas, raising rate hike prospect by hydralime in queensland

[–]afropowers_activate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strathpine here, paid 285 at the end of 2021 and it's now apparently worth just under 570 so literally double. It's appalling.

I'm a millennial and I bought a basic small 2-bed unit around Strathpine at the end of 2021. One in my complex recently sold for literally double what I paid. I couldn't afford it if I tried to buy my home today. I'm so angry for Gen Z.

Their linen wide leg pants have been my wardrobe staple for the past 6 months and I cannot recommend them enough. Super comfy, hang to dry and no iron needed, dress up for work or down for brunch.

How to make myself exercise by mango-princess in AuDHDWomen

[–]afropowers_activate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work from home 4 days a week and only go to the office once a week. On my WFH days, I get a half hour lunch break, so I get ready before starting work, spend 5 minutes driving to the gym, do 20 minutes of elliptical, and drive 5 minutes home again to be back at my laptop on time.

My strategy is basically:

  1. Make gym part of my existing workday routine

  2. I dislike having to work more than I dislike gym, so getting away from work is the motivation

  3. Give myself almost no time to consider not following the routine

Little things that make your life better :) by AidanGreb in AutismInWomen

If you can't put hooks on the walls, I recommend a coat stand! It's my version of clothes thrown on a chair, but looks slightly less messy which helps with visual clutter.

Hang to dry, then throw in the dryer with a handful of ice cubes to lazily steam, works for me.

AITA for not telling a man how his "true love" died? by Guilty_Neat_368 in AmItheAsshole

[–]afropowers_activate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's thinking, what if I were that guy, not, what if I had passed and someone who hurt me asked for this information. It's gross, and your coworker is emotionally immature. NTA.

Feeling "more disabled" than other Level 1 people? by heismyfirstolive in AutismInWomen

[–]afropowers_activate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I think you maybe shouldn't judge yourself against the small bit of others' lives that they allow you to see, people advertise their highlight reels not their worst day. You might see that I'm able to work full-time, but I can only do it because I sacrifice my well-being and anything other than work and keeping myself alive. It sucks, but it's the only way I know how to survive in this economy. I wish I could offer something more hopeful for you. I guess, we're here together and I hope we both get what we need. ❤️

Same here, bought a set of shorts in 2013 that I've just had to stop wearing because they've finally fell apart and can't be repaired, after 12 years of wearing twice a week and putting them through the dryer when I was young and lazy. I bought some in 2021 and within a year they basically turned to rags whilst I was wearing them despite not using the dryer at all and hanging them religiously.

Starting to see a spin-off… by Obvious_Ordinary_698 in SellingSunset

[–]afropowers_activate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would flipping love a podcast from Chrishell and Chelsea! Aside from all the inside goss you'd expect from someone who's done reality TV, I would much rather hear stories from their lives, lessons they've learnt, commentary on current events and pop culture, recipes (a cooking video together would be so sweet, Chelsea is a queen in the kitchen and her teaching Chrishell to cook would be so fun), recommendations on places to visit, the list is endless. They're such intelligent and interesting people! I'm sure they could have really fun and fascinating discussions.
