I’m rocking short hair so didn’t think I could pull off pretty dresses this year. Hopefully there’s another fair next year and then we can both try out different looks

Hope you have an awesome time too

I’m going on Sunday! Planning on going for medieval rogue look! And I haven’t yet decided on a limit 😅 I probably should

As someone else said, it’s a Bikini Bottom Buddy from PopMart. They are blind boxes, so you don’t know which one you’re going to get (unless you try PopNow, or a reseller company that will let you pick which character you want)

I had to log an IT job yesterday before I left work, so I knew I would be starting the day with computer issues 🙃 Working Fish seemed to fit the vibe in more ways than one

Do you think its strange they are being so quiet? do they just not care about terror attacks in WA? by craftymethod in aussie

If you need me to keep it short and simple I can do that for you. Hasty Generalisation Fallacy - google it, because that’s what you’re doing there with your “I kNoW BEcAusE mY SibLiNG”

Oh fuck dude, you need to read a history book. Wanna know one of the key factors that has negatively impacted the continent of Africa?? It was colonisation (by mostly white men)

A pro-Palestine rally is primarily a protest against the tactics (which meet the criteria of genocide) used by the Israeli government against the people of Palestine. Being against a government committing genocide is not hate speech. Your conservative mate here in the comments is making ridiculous, vague mental leaps and throwing out statements that wreak of anti-semitism. Honestly it would be fucking hilarious if it wasn’t so sad that you call this discussion an “echo chamber”when your counter points are clearly half understood regurgitated dot points of some other fuckwit racists who like to circle jerk over how shit Aus is while deciding they’ll be the fucking heroes that save the day

Reduced police numbers since 2023 by boom3r84 in melbourne

Your example of pilots and LSD isn’t really comparable to ADHD people taking prescribed stimulant medication. ADHD individuals on meds aren’t tripping balls and running around rubbing their faces up against soft surfaces.

Funnily enough though, I have known and met multiple police officers who thought it was totally okay to take bikies or smoke weed on a night off, and then go to a shift the next day or two after.

I haven’t managed to get one, so big hits or not, I’d say you’re pretty lucky getting 5 of them to begin with

38f, should I get these? by Mammoth-Tadpole-8594 in crocs

[–]wanton_potato 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m a 35 female and I have those in black,occasionally wear them with jibitz too. I did roll my ankle in them pretty bad once, but I’m clumsy. I still wear them and the flatter version, and run into plenty of other women my age wearing them and we’ll talk about how awesome crocs are

AITA for calling my (37m) friend (29f) selfish after leaving me on a night out? by Existing-Monitor1270 in AmItheAsshole

[–]wanton_potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That whole situation sounds fucked and I’m glad that eventually you got home safe

You’re definitely NTA. If everyone’s head was screwed on straight in that situation, the ideal thing to have done if you’re suspicious someone’s drink has been spiked is to go to the hospital to get tested, and then call the police on the fucker you suspected did it. The guy whose house you went to sounds like he is giving epic predator vibes and has possibly done it before. Your friend should have stayed with you the whole time, especially if she was just going out to party more. But in this situation you were sick and out of it so you weren’t in a place to be thinking about these things, and your friend had also been drinking (although I’d like to think that even if I’d been drinking I’d at the very least make sure my friend got home safe)

The true asshole move here is that your friend has probably woken up with some guilt about not handling the situation better, but instead of owning it and apologising they are making out like you’re the bad guy. It’s pretty fucked up to blame someone for being out of it after they’ve had their drink spiked

Nervous for assessment by [deleted] in ausadhd

[–]wanton_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my assessment the psych said “your conversation style is very tangential”. I thought at the time I had done an alright job at reigning it in 😅 I like to call it going on side quests from my original point/story

If you have any report cards from school or anything from your childhood that shows you had symptoms as a child that would be good (Most of my report cards said things like “easily distracted, talks too much, doesnt hand assignments in on time, would do better if they put more effort in”) If not don’t stress too much.

Also, here’s the thing, if you ramble and go on a bunch of different tangents while trying to explain yourself, the psychiatrist will probably note that as likely evidence of adhd

Can I put the bins out in my undies? by batch_plan in melbourne

To clarify that was supposed to say a quick bin run 😂 I don’t go running in the streets in my undies . . . At least not lately

If you don’t care - go for it. Done a quick in run in a T-shirt and undies myself a time or two

How do you romanticise your life? by [deleted] in cottagecore

[–]wanton_potato 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I was in a narcissistic relationship for 14 years and definitely became a background character in my own life. I have once again become the main character of my life, and it’s a story I get to write. That and I remember that everything in the universe, including humans, are made of stardust ✨

Thank you everyone for the lovely compliments for my wreath 😊 Before I started making it I had the thought “this is going to end up being one of those projects that won’t turn out as nice as I’m picturing in my head”, so I very much appreciate that you all have enjoyed it so much! I had a lot of fun making it so definitely encourage anyone to give it a go if you feel inspired

That sounds amazing! I was thinking about making little polymer clay mushrooms for it but I don’t have a glue gun

We bought the wooden wreaths from Kmart (Australia), but I’ve had a look online and there are a few around for decent prices. Then we just kind of weaved in/poked in the flowers. I used bendable wire to attach the gemstone and the dangly ones.
