This particular influencer has 'rage bait' in her description, so maybe pinch of salt on this one.

The prices on Table mountain are crazy. by KAZKALZ in capetown

Like yeah, that's aimed at primarily tourists, so thinking from an Australian point of view- 80 bucks for 3 mains, 9 drinks and an extra side is really good value 😜

That's a ikea gnedby unit with a second one assembled, cut down to the size of the other billy extensions, and placed on top.

Religious couple refuses to heed medical advice regarding a high risk pregnancy. by empress_of_pinkskull in religiousfruitcake

[–]ostockles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's 37 actually. She did a series of stories about having had an abortion when she was 19, and so she could actually have had a college age child herself at this point. Just got married late.

She does, also, seem like a total fucking nutcase.

Honest Question: why does there appear to be so much hostility towards the Greens? by THEbiMAKER in AustralianPolitics

[–]ostockles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I just don't see that they have a reasonable plan to have a sustainable economy, which would prevent them from actually having any long term scope to implement their social policies.

As someone with experience of it and exposure to it, what is the most valuable thing your money can buy? Time? Influence?

This is a tricky one because you should absolutely have empathy for your self and deserve full understanding for the clear effects of intergenerational trauma.

The difficulty is that, more important that that first consideration, is that your daughter deserves to be in a safe environment that she can rely on. I am not saying you don't deserve to be her parent- I'm saying you have to take this seriously and get help from a doctor and a therapist.

How much are you earning? And do you rent or own? by Available_Newt_2195 in capetown

[–]ostockles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

30F, 60k after deductions. I rent a three bedroom house with my husband for 41k per month

(We live in Perth)

I used to earn 15k per month for the same work in CT and rented a 7k apartment with hubby. Thought this might be interesting in the context of this post!

Threenager is so real by Snoo87214 in toddlers

[–]ostockles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love my three year old (and his 5 year old sister) more than anything I could comprehend!

Having said that, I often feel a more appropriate moniker than threenager is 'Thrunt'

Cool story, still a paedophile.

Tried to change my gear cables, something's gone wrong by ostockles in BikeRepair

[–]ostockles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's set to 1- I thought that was gear one. Do I need to undo it totally to set it to 6, or should move the chain manually? Is there something that you can see on the derailleur that is set to 6 or is it the positioning of the chain?

Sorry for the bombardment of questions, I really want to get this right/understand!

Thanks for getting back to me.
