The music part of this might interest you, it’s absolutely captivated me.

A game called Expedition 33 will release tomorrow and it’s come out to glowing reviews and its bits of soundtracks has been released by the developers.

Sent to my symphonic metal loving friend, thanks for sharing!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm a symphonic metal fan though that has nothing to do how I came across these tracks.

The music interests us greatly also.

oh cool, thank you. I love soundtracks. 🙂

I’m listening to the first song linked, got headphones on and I’m just drowning in the audio experience.

I've been watching YTs from the US of people shopping in op shops and yard sales

it's an amazing view of small town life and everyday people .

nice people

But I have never seen a single Asian, Hispanic or Black person. I don't think they avoid, they just live in different circles.

Man, this behemoth of a laptop has really chewed into my luggage allowance. Can't take my work laptop, will have to deal with accessing work stuff from SharePoint on my personal laptop instead.

I've been in a mad rush trying to clear out the fridge and tidy things up before tomorrow... Plus side is I made a kickass fried rice with all the leftover rice, enough for brunch tomorrow before the flight and for the freezer as an excellent meal for when I get back.

Once again I cannot be grateful enough for my dishwasher. Takes so much out of the chaos. My mind is in a million places... But I'm almost through my Anxiety List!

I've been here at the beach house about a month now

nearly all settled in, still a lot of work but the chaos is receding 🙂

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Wow, that time has flown! Glad things are settling down now - moving is such a big deal

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I think I've spent half the time just resting my mind after the anxiety of inner city living living

there aren't people screaming at night

my letter box and garage doesn't get broken into

no porch pirates

no nasty neighbours

it's just quieter

Why do I need to turn the volume up to read the subtitles?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Ha! I turn the volume up for subtitles too. It helps to understand them better or something

I don't suppose anyone here is going to see This Will Destroy You Saturday night?

Nooo… Melbcat has been feeling stressed lately and licking her little tummy raw.

spoiler

She’s still been getting her calming Zylkene and I’ve been neglecting the garden to avoid leaving her inside by herself. But she is overdue for her Solensia (thanks health dramas and 4 days of public holidays). Maybe she’ll come good when I sort that.

Otherwise maybe I can put her in a baby’s bodysuit (with the bottom snaps left open) as a way of protecting her skin. This however… would not help her stress.

this one looks great, it has velcro for easy putting on and it covers her tummy 🙂

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

That’s so cute. I will be murdered in my sleep but the photos would be worth it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

You can buy cat t-shirts from k-mart.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

I can’t see them but Kmart now sells a pet stroller 😲

Edit: Found them but they only seem to have dog ones. And they leave the lower belly uncovered

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Damn. Maybe try a new born singlet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

Yeah. That’s a great idea.

I have a bodysuit but it’s a little tight and the singy would be more comfortable

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

More stretchy to help get on too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I am so going to wake up one day to find she’s pooped in my shoes

You just reminded me to watch season 1 which I forgot to over the break.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago
