I did my research last night for where I'd go for breakfast in Bright, walked up to it in the chilled morning drizzle eager for some (reviewer described) fluffy yellow eggs and coffee only to find, to my horror, that a sign on the door said "We are closed for annual leave until June 26, sorry we missed you"
I was so disappointed I left town immediately. I drove without a specific destination, in search of a place of fluffy yellow eggs and delicious coffee.
I find myself now in Wangaratta, sat inside a cafe I spotted as I drove through the city centre. Eggs ordered, sipping my coffee and listening to my audiobook through my headphones. The sun is shining.
I feel like turning rules-based ideas like "don't dox people" into positive values-based statements is a very healthy experience. I need to do this in more areas of my life 🙂
Good morning! This is your Chef speaking. For ingredients purchase purpose I have made a roll call spreadsheet. Please check that your name is there, and add those who are missing / you've messaged. There are a couple of people whom we can't remember the names of. Would be great if you know their names. Much appreciated.
It has an official list of what they actually represent (which is what is read out when using text to voice software) and shows you what they actually look like on different platforms. You can paste an emoji into the search bar to look up what it means. Very handy if you are like me and spend way too much time wondering if that little face is actually smiling or grimacing.
What would you guys' love to see added to Lemmy? Personally, I kinda miss the Reddit trophies, how am I going to feel superior to all of you who signed up 4 days ago if I can't flex ending up in the x year club 2 days earlier???
Good news, I got some pants at the market and they're really good pants too, I've had them on my wishlist for a while.
Bad news, my dad and stepmum believed for a good moment of that hoax where school students identifying as cats that started in America. So... That was fun. They're not like cookers, but I can see why it's easy to believe that stuff. But man...
waiting at my desk for 10 whole minutes
for my oven to ding telling me it's done with it
In the distance I hear parties and pounding bass tracks
but I'm at home, warm and toasty, baking my midnight snacks
warm shortbread cookies with a caramel filling
cut shapes in the tops if you're able and willing
a delicious treat made with butter and dreams
and the magic of premade caramel creme
How would you all feel about me sending an invite to the folks at r/melbournementalhealth? I've noticed that their sub is still open and there might be a few people on there we know who don't know about us yet or know where to find us. Just an idea.
Engaging in the masochistic activity of looking at apartments and imagine what it would like to live alone. It really really fkn irks me that someone on my salary in their late 20s can't afford a half decent apartment.
Kiddo is too big for size 000 but a little too small for 00. 00 has little grippy things on the feet, but says it’s 3 -6 months. Surely he’s not needing grip in the next couple of months?!
Decided to take a punt on a dirty spice chai. Yeah nah… won’t be doing that again. I’ll drink it don’t get me wrong, but it’s neither a coffee nor a spiced chai. And therefore it’s the worst of both worlds.
Air fryer owners. What is the cleaning situation like? I have not joined the air fryer revolution yet. It’s seems like they might be good, but is the time saved in cooking negated by time spent in cleaning? I’m thinking compared to using normal oven, which does not need cleaning every use and baking sheet is easy to wash or put in dishwasher.
Watching a new to me movie everyday, not just lotr & hobbit 😏
Today was Good Will Hunting. I had been putting off watching this for decades because ... "reasons"
Yes, it hit as hard as I thought it would. But I'm older now and can see that movie was written by kids, genius kids but kids. 😉
It's true, easy work is relaxing, it leaves the mind free.
Luck is more important than most people know.
Choices in life aren't usually dichotomous, you don't have to choose between a person/people and opportunity. If you can, choose both.
Still shits me that society thinks smart people have a duty to self actualise and serve society. If there is duty the duty goes both ways. You want what brains can give, then give brains some support and respect their freedom of choice.
don't know much about history, don't know much biology,...... nor countries in Central Asia ending with stan
to explain the graphic, the squares are attempts at naming a country based on shape, green gives geographic proximity, blue direction, the stars and little building are for capital city, flag, population and currency
Decided to start that sci-fi tv series Silo and the reviews mostly being about Rebecca Ferguson's accent kinda shit me. It doesn't detract from her acting or the show so I don't get what the big deal is. Like are people really upset she doesn't have that generic American accent and think that constitutes "bad acting".
Wait so the reddit CEO is now going after mods? My dude, you can disagree with them all you like, but don’t piss off the folks who keep your site from becoming bloody Twitter when they do it for free!
Oh and he praised Elon…. Whilst Twitter are getting evicted from one of their offices for not paying rent.
Get comfortable gang! Looks like we’re not going home any time soon. And even if it were, suspect it’d be temporary!
Just had a flashback to a highschool cringe moment.
I wrote a poem and drew a rose all pretty for one of my first girlfriends. She framed it and put it above her bed.
The poem was basically about how the rose is really beautiful but you have to be careful to not get too close because it also has thorns and it will hurt you...
spent the day gardening at the community garden. plucked out a lot of weeds, more weeds to tackle at home as well as the community garden. went to bunnings bought supplies to reframe one plot for pea and beans. Monday involves a lot of calling and harassing of people. yea long week ahead
This one has more comments so I vote it the winner..damn, bots can be helpful lol. I wonder if the old mods are still hanging around Reddit twiddling their thumbs or whatever
At the p's place helping them get a few things ready for our trip to bro's wedding in JK. To say things get tense is an understatement before trips. Been a while seens I've been with them but same ol..
Old man bought some 'tiles' the find stuff airtag type things for their luggage. I set them up all good to go. Work great.
I leave them on the table next to the passports and he freaks out saying I need to put them in an envelope so they can find them before we leave...
Ok I dunno if anyone else is experiencing this but it’s the second time it’s happened to me.
On Mlem or the web browser (on my phone, iPad or computer) I can’t see it access any content that was posted since last night. If I log out, I can see all of it, but the second I log back in it’s all gone.
On the Melbourne page I was able to sort by new posts and find the one Raven posted here and click on the thread. I can see that it exists and see that there are 40 comments but I can’t see any of them. Not even sure if posting will work.
When I try to change the sort order of the Melbourne page or view the posts, I can only see the stuff made by mods. Last time it fixed itself the next day but idk 🤷♀️
Any hot tips on how to put a smoke alarm back after changing batteries? The Bunnings lady makes it look like child's play but the top came right off (rather than being attached via a flat cord) and I'm struggling to align the top back to the body and slot it back in :(
G'day again DT peeps! So, the steam "summer" sales are coming up at the end of the month (AKA the time I can spend a shitton of money on games and not feel bad). My Steam library feels a little lacking, does anyone have any suggestions? My only thing is I'm not big into shooters or survival type games. But I'd love some reccos!
I got quoted 520 to 580$ to do a pink ombre on virgin hair (pretty short, just below chin length) and I know they use Olaplex etc, but that feels excessive? Am I wrong?
