The alarm to get ready for work went off and I woke to a text asking if I would like AL today. Hell yeah I do! Back to sleep for me.
Awake at 6am on a Sunday. Why can’t I sleep in any more? The curse of getting older
shall we tell 🤭
I can't remember so many crickets so late in the season . It's good, it's a natural thing in the city. 😊
Hello Melbourneians? Melbourneites? Person from almost the other side of the world here.
How come this community is so active on Lemmy? I haven't seen any other city pop up on my feed as often as yours. You regularly get more than a hundred comments each day in these discussion threads.
I serve breakfast daily, as compensation for the end of donut (zero covid) days
We were a pretty active community back on Reddit,. especially during COVID.
Many of us migrated here last year during the Reddit boycott/fuckery.
We share random mundane shit and talk shit with each other.
Most of my posts are me being annoyed with me neighbours mowing their lawn twice a week or watering the same lawn when it's raining.
Feel free to join us. You don't have to live here to talk shit 😊
Cat photos and the job hunt from me.
Many of us are Reddit blackout immigrants.
Because we're actually a cult and everyone's welcome to join. Even you. Sign up with a picture of a pet. We're open 24/7.
We’re just that cool!
Really tho? I’d guess because of the dynamics of Australia, whereas else where people are more spread out we all live largely in 2-5 cities.
Melbourne is over 5 million people and the largest city in Australia. We can all gather and talk about the same place and things.
We also speak English so others internationally can engage more easily with our community.
Oh and both work, but we generally use Melbournians.
Because ithe internet is made of cats & boobs, and we have cute cats 😝
I have neither of these things. 😞
Poor deprived bubba
My cat is indeed cute. My boobs however, not so much.
It's often 300+ on a Friday.
We're coming at you from the future just now because daylight savings time ended overnight.
It's an active community because it's an active community. Any community with 50+ daily commenters could be as active.
I didn't think DST was that big of a difference from real time

Only for 40 hours.
Omg it's 7pm not 7am
Lol I used to have this am pm shift happening when I did rotating day/night shift. I'd wake up in a darkened room with an analogue clock and no idea whether it was say 2am or 2pm. Very disorientating!
