I’m back with pizza!

Looks like pineapple and some green capsicum and something leafy.

The banana is hiding underneath.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 1 day ago

Yuck! Banana should never be within 5km of a pizza!

🤮

Well, the crust looks pretty nice. And the cheese

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 1 day ago

All in all it was pretty nice.

I was happy with it all things considered.

Did you know one third of the risk of developing GAD (generalised anxiety disorder) is genetic? Yet another reason for me to not reproduce.

[-] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 8 points 1 day ago

But, 0% chance of passing on any disorders to a cat. And fluffy friends definitely make the world better.

[-] wscholermann@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

Brilliant observation!

[-] wscholermann@aussie.zone 9 points 1 day ago

Grappling with extreme anxiety attacks lately. Just taking it day by day and trying to arrest the doom spiralling and catastrophizing.

Great way to lose weight though.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 8 points 1 day ago

Hang in there mate. I've had a shit time recently too. Day at a time is the way to go. As banal as it sounds, recognising the doom spiralling and catastrophising is an important step towards trending back to a stable state. You got this

[-] wscholermann@aussie.zone 8 points 1 day ago

Thank you, appreciate that.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be normal and well adjusted. Truly envy people like this.

[-] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago

I’m sorry bro. Right there with you

Linux sysadmin horror story

I did the thing....the rm -rf * thing in the wrong directory

😱

Did not take out the server but did take out one of those legacy Cron jobs that's been running for years but no-one quite remembers how it works and it turns out it was not being backed up (that was a fun additional realisation) and kinda sorta really important.

Eek.

Just spent the last few hours surgically reinstating the code from and out of date backup.

Fingers crossed.

It's my birthday in a month.

It's rare that I'm excited for it, but for the moment, Im looking forward to it.

Also, tuna pasta sauce doesn't last as long as I thought, as I found out today...

I'm trying to update my bank account details on my work's payroll software and it's not letting me do it. So I sent an email to payroll, and almost signed it off with "Retards" instead of "Regards". Just one of those days.

[-] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 9 points 1 day ago

I dug (another) hole!

This one will be dedicated to potat and only potat. Should be twice as big hopefully by the end.

Was also about to start the chillo patch on the left there (which looks awful for now). Not stressed have a month to sort that. Disconnected the water but apparently I left it on and it went off just as my head was right near the drip line was aimed at my face.
I sounded like this

Wanted to import the discussion about this address from the other place.

https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-toorak-146320444

It's super nice but no way it's worth $50M+ right? It's not even in the part of the Yarra where you could go for a swim.

[-] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 4 points 1 day ago

In the description...

"a wonderful sense of understated opulence". Err that's not understated.

Whilst I like to see what crazy houses bigly huge money can get you.. you'd need an army of people for the upkeep with something like that.

[-] LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago

That doesn't look like a home to me.

Earlier I was going to go out to buy some coffee on half price.

Walked out the door dressed up and gave up and went back in.

Having of those days today.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

Nearly called it a mental health day from the shower this morning. It’s deffo going around!

I can't wait to move back to the inner city. It's so isolating here. Like, I'm the only person here in a weird way.

I don't see anyone often except for the train in the morning. Or the supermarket.

So lifeless.

I have to wait if/until I pass probation.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 6 points 1 day ago

Make sure you've had a look at the rental prices in the inner city while you're at it...

It's actually only slightly more expensive than what I pay here. I'm in a house, and happy to move to an apartment.

[-] LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Laneway Festival ticket acquired. Friend and her friends got some too! So now we are going together as a big group and I have something to look forward to :)

When Mickey is dozing on my chair he is always in the mood for kisses. He starts purring like a tractor when I kiss his belly, and he starts rolling over more to make sure I kiss it all. It's the only time I can touch his tummy without losing an appendage; hands and arms are absolutely no go, only face!

Pic of him rolled over after I kissed his whoooole tummy, I stop when he stops purring 👀 I'm not gonna push him with my eyes so close to his claws lol

fluffy belly boi

A dude just got on the train with a 6 pack of beer and a huge pizza. Tempted to offer a trade for an iPhone 13, the smell is incredible!!

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Second big thing done for the week, finishing up at one job. While I know it was the best choice for everyone there is certainly a feeling of sadness/loss. I'm going to try walk some of it off and let it flow through.

After uni tomorrow my next biggest things for the week are (a) ramping up the rental search, (b) massive cleaning on weekend

E: walk done, sweat exuded, shower and OMITB and dinner and early sleep tonight I think. Uni library first thing tomorra

Ok I’m tracking now. It’s like the minutes of last meeting in the title. The mystery pizza.

There must be at least couple common ingredients that they always have leftover, but then it depends on the pizza joint as well and the longevity of the ingredients. Hmm tricky.

Although anchovies probably aren’t regularly requested, they do keep well so I’m guessing they won’t be a topping.

I can’t think of any pizza I would turn my nose up at though.

Cried for like the first 1.5 hours of my work day. Awesome.

I planned on a nice relaxing day today but the man is here and it's hard to relax with the energizer bunny hopping around asking if there's anything I'd like him to do. Yes, go outside and don't come back for a really long time. I know that's mean and I know I'm lucky but he's been bopping around since 8 am and I'm tired watching him now.

Little peace accords between species this morning. Someone hangs out a seed mix that's the neighbourhood buffet breakfast
