Still riding high from venturing into the city yesterday. Can't wait to move closer to civilisation. Soon. Very soon.

Been using the back room as a (metaphorical) crap catcher while Operation Sort Shit has been going on; it's taken me the better part of two hours to clear and clean the floor. Oops.
Now having a breather before I clear and clean the rest.

On the phone in bed.

6kg worth of cat jumped a 2m gap onto the most sensitive part of me.

Cats.

I once received a clawed paw somewhere there shouldn't be one and I'm still annoyed by it months later

Something exciting with helicopters hereโ€ฆ

I thought it was 4 horses to signal the apocalypse. What does it mean if thereโ€™s a fifth one?

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

You have to add Pollution to the canonical four. Or possibly E Musk esq.

If anyone is looking for an oddball movie to watch, I recommend Hundreds of Beavers.

Black and white, silent slapstick movie. The seven seas be yer friend for searching this one up.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

searching the seven seas for hundreds of beavers sounds very, very dangerous

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (2 children)

The more reputable websites will not lead you astray. And if they do....hey...beaver is beaver, no?

Right. Morning work complete.

Iโ€™ve seen the same few minutes of several Dawn Services this morning. Youโ€™d be amazed how much more people like your friendly neighbourhood trumpet player on Anzac Day ๐ŸŽบ

Bored, so I decided to have a look at my old Reddit comments. Hard to believe it's almost been a year since rexxit.

It also made me remember how damn negative Reddit is. So many of my comments are either at 0, negative, or have a little controversial icon next to them. And the ones that aren't (outside of the DT at least) are mostly just upvoted because I was being a dick to people who were getting downvoted.

Maybe I was just aligning myself with bad crowds, but that feels like it was a common theme on Reddit, I noticed it almost everywhere. Also their new web UI is disgusting and clunky and I don't understand how anybody is able to use it

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (4 children)

The place reeks of negativity. Even when I go there to browse these days, I feel myself getting sucked into the void of shittiness.

I slept like a log last night, from having finally released so much stress. Now I can start tackling other parts of my life...

Part of me wants someone to just come and do it for me tho ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Wouldn't life be so much easier if I could just hire a bloke on Fiverr to fix it?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You can, it's called a personal assistant, it just takes more money than a fiver

Pretty moon out tonight, if you need something to howl at.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Did you know the gap between us and the moon, is roughly the size of 30 earths? That blew me away when I heard it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I love how the moon looks when itโ€™s low on the horizon. Unfortunately living in built up area, canโ€™t see it this way. Itโ€™s a rare treat when Iโ€™ve been on holiday and had the opportunity for an uninterrupted view, and happen to get the timing right and remember to look at the sky. Urban living sure has itโ€™s advantages, but the downside is loss of connection to nature.

The clear nights have been lovely if a little cold :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Very cold. Gotta love old houses with no insulation ๐Ÿ™ƒ
