I'm cooking curried sausages to celebrate this cold weather and the smell is making me so fucking hungry that dinner time is going to be early tonight.

My Facebook feed keeps on showing my AI generated images of kitchens and houses. I end up spending way too much time trying to spot the errors. My favourites so far are electric lights hanging directly from glass roof panels, three faucets with no tap, and cupboards with hinges on both sides of the doors and the handle in the middle.

Anyone know where I can get a chauffeurs hat on short notice? I'm picking up my mother in law at the airport on the weekend and I heard she was a bit jealous that when my FIL went overseas the extended family sent a driver for him, sign and all so i thought I'd put on a show for her. (watching her either piss herself laughing or die of embarrassment is just icing on the cake).

Lombards? They have lots of costume hats.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Google corporate cars. You should be able to get a quote or they often have fixed price for airport pickups. Last time I did that it was actually cheaper than a taxi, but it's been a while.

Edit: oh, re-read and realised you are just after a hat. ๐Ÿคฃ I can't help there. Unless you want to set up an elaborate scheme luring out a car to a remote location to steal their hat, but that seems to be be going a bit too far.

I didn't pay attention to what mouthwash I was buying and accidentally bought the alcohol one. Bloody hell I have no doubts it's killing all sorts of germs and bacteria in my mouth, because it feels like it's almost going to kill me

There's this one about answering questions at home and pays $1.5k per week. Looks scammy.

be sure to wear the g string on the outside of your yoga pants

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

Hm. The g string has a dog chain so you can keep your hands free. Interesting.

Went to bed at 8pm last night cause i was wrecked. I had the electric blanket on low, kid was asleep and it was raining. Probably the most content I've felt in ages. Woke up today with nearly 12 hours sleep feeling a million bucks, just need my stomach to settle.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I wish I had your level of sleep. Woken up very early this morning by one of my smoke alarms making a low battery warning sound. I swear that anytime this happens with any of the alarms, it's always in the middle of the night. Then took ages to get back to sleep. Alarm was neighbour's dog barking, the next door house is doing some sort of the renovation work and as soon as the trades turn up in the morning, the dog starts going off. Just a terrible night of sleep really.

Was holding the cat while my partner got ready for work, cat was all cuddles and kisses. I made a joke and said "you're going to work Mickey! We're gonna get you ready to go!" And Mickey full on freaked out, pushed off me and ran to the other side of the room away from the front door ๐Ÿ˜‚

I was like "I'm joking oh my god!" While my partner was just cackling about how the cat knows English.

The cat is too clever but has no sense of human humour haha

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

smh kits these days

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

Don't shirk the work Mickey. Peeps need to eat.

Even though we didn't get to see the NH eclipse we still deserve an early rave tune because our retinas are intact: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VtwlyaYohs&list=RD5VtwlyaYohs&start_radio=1&rv=rALVOFwYZvg

I don't wanna breathe, the sun and moon between me and you โ™ซ

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

It's a wondrous event and I hope our American cousins enjoy it and find some new connection to the natural world . ๐Ÿ’–

also, I'm loving all these rave tunes

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Unfortunaterly all my friends at Texas eclipse festival were evacuated before the eclipse as there was a severe weather warning and possible tornados

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I hope they did too.. I have not been fortunate to see one yet :( The pics on the astro sub on the place that will not be named are amazing

I am jealous :)
