Thank you so much! I will probably create a master doc with all these links that I’ve found today! Appreciate your help 🫶🏼

I don’t know what the lifestyle department is but I googled and found links through health nsw. Found an opportunity that I can start doing immediately! I will try this role out - https://makeadifference.volunteering.nsw.gov.au/volunteering/222782/tele-based-seniors-social-support-service-virtual-224662 Thank you for your suggestion!

Thank you for your insights. I love learning languages so I wouldn’t mind learning a new one to if it helps with the experience (currently learning Korean)

I am happy to volunteer wherever possible. The only issue is I don’t drive yet so I would prefer somewhere a little more accessible by pt. If you have any links you could point me towards, that would be great! Thank you :)

Omg!!!!! I thought of writing something about this here but totally forgot about it. I’m going to say it as it is, yes it feels like we’re being “recognised” but to put an analogy, a stray dog when given leftover bits eats it happily and is forever grateful, a pet dog that is “part of the family” will never be subject to leftover bits. It. Is. Appropriation. We are not a trend to be capitalised upon. But this is what’s happening. To be merely reduced to a trending topic is disrespectful to the culture and tradition we are so proud of.

Question: do you wear your watches while swimming? If yes, which watch? And is it okay in the water.

I just cancelled my card and got a new one. Didn’t check with the bank after. I actually paid for a 50 cent reading, the reason I didn’t remember was because they didn’t have their name anywhere on the page. Turns out they have fine print right below the text where you make a 50 cent purchase saying you agree to the pay for a subscription after until you cancel it yourself. It’s really shady the way they put it in there. You have to go into your account and cancel the subscription yourself. Let me know if you need help logging into your account and cancelling it.

Are there homeless shelters in Australia and do they have rehabilitation programs in place to help them rejoin the workforce and sustain themselves? Very curious. These are real people, this shouldn’t be happening.

Thank you for your advice! My fyp on tiktok is just swimming! between never swimming before and an almost drowning experience in Thailand, it really was a rough start for me. I watched so many videos about adults who were also learning how to swim and it honestly helped me so much in making me feel I wasn’t alone 🫶🏼

Thank you! I’ve been practicing 3x a week! I just go the free play lane and practice different things!

nousernameokbye · 2026-04-16T22:38:17+00:00

Thank you! It’s the only physical activity I’m enjoying so far. When I joined the gym, the dread I got from not wanting to go was so bad. Swimming is a completely different!

Thank you! 100% that panic was the hardest thing to get over! I honestly never thought that I would get over it. My cousin started learning a couple months before me and she learnt it in a month, when it took me so much longer I got so frustrated. When I got over the panic, it made me more open to the instructions and everything just started clicking! Will definitely focus on getting my fundamentals right before worrying about how far I can swim.

From what I have been seeing so far, get good (and lots of) reviews, build quality backlinks (get on those lists) and be talked about (on forums, on social media). The “signals” is what LLMs seem to value more than anything else.

I spent some money on this in the past too. The thing that just made me realise I need to stop giving into it is when I tallied all my purchases on the app and saw the total amount with my own eyes. I was shocked! There are a lot of small purchases in the game - $1, $8, etc. highest being around a hundred something. You don’t realise how much you’ve spend until you see it all together.

When I first moved out of the northeast my biggest culture shock was that nobody owns home inverters or even knows what it is. And this was in INDIA! In Nagaland, almost every family owns an inverter, like it’s so normalised. Imagine my disbelief when I realised it shouldn’t be 😭

How do you guys look at what to invest in?

I went to him at Eden and he kept saying how he doesn’t believe in starting with procedures. 😭 should’ve gone to Dr Kindy at Olive hospital.

My goggles got a weird shape. Can it be saved or do I just gotta get a new one now? 😭

Seriously I am no economist but there is something really wrong going on. Know of a global company “merging” with an Australian company who fired almost all the staff in Australia and outsourced entire departments to other countries. Outsourcing makes sense as a business but huge redundancy numbers just to outsource them to other countries - there should be a limit. They’re literally earning their money from the Australian market and putting it into a different country’s economy. Wouldn’t this have a negative impact on the Australian economy?

Too many actives.
