I despise the wasteful commercial aspect of xmas & refused the trading of meaningless crap with others for a while now.

The festive season is also peak drought & fire season in Oz so I make donations to places that help the injured wildlife or deliver water to farmers.

The best way to let people know would be to tell them you’ll be making a…[Read more]

F Is For Family on Netflix.

Cartoon by Bill Burr set in 70’s. If you like his comedy you’ll like this.

They showed up 2hrs early because the vax was gonna reach it’s “too long outta deep freeze” or something. I was in bed still.

2nd shot knocked me round a bit for 24hrs. Worth it but, now I get awesome 5G and Bill Gates talks to me in my sleep.

Guys with MD I played sport with 15+ years ago used gel like pouches they’d snap to release heat & you could boil them or something to re-use.

I found a chemist a couple years ago that had these little tea bag like things you rub in your hands & they get hot for 50cents each. I brought em all. They helped warm my right hand to help my left hand…[Read more]

Yep totally get you.

Especially “It hasn’t clicked that if they put the cup in a specific spot now it means they won’t have to get me something to drink down the road.”

Take an extra minute now to get it right & you won’t have me complaining later. Simples!

As Blake says they’re being paid too. Sometimes its hard not to raise your voice & say…[Read more]

I headbutted my family doctor when I was like 8 in an attempt to stop him taking a blood test while my mum & grandfather held me down. My veins have always been hard to hit too so never was a quick or easy process. They’d make me push my manual chair around the car park for ages beforehand to try get the veins pumped up & easier to find.

Jab in…[Read more]

I told my needle giver “I’m gonna look over here & continue rambling & you just stick me without any warn-” and she says “all done!”

I have an irrational phobia of needles. Anyone describing how far its going in etc. would have to chase me down the street! I had 3 beers, some weed & meditated before they got here to calm the nerves lol

This sounds like an absolute clusterfu … umm, schamozzle. Like no one who should know knows anything or are just passing the buck hoping you shut up & go away.

In situations like this I hit the phones & break balls until I get answers. If I don’t like the answer I become a pain in their bosses arse. Threaten things like going to the media,…[Read more]

I’m in a whole different country so I have zero knowledge in regards to your particular situation.

Personally I’d take the place and tackle the other BS if/when that crops up. You’ve already done a lot of working & waiting to get this far, I wouldn’t flush all that too easily. Right now you got no unit & a potential problem – you could have that…[Read more]

I figure I’m toast if I get C19, that’s almost certain to happen without the vax. The vax like anything has risks too but the odds are much better. I’m more likely to die in a road accident on my way home.

I’m interested to know what “I did my own research” involves for people who say that. Like, you been slaving away in the laboratory utilizing…[Read more]

Ketchup every day – 3 times daily even is preferred over hitting dog crap once! Ketchup doesn’t smoosh into the tread of your tires and need to be picked out with a stick. Ketchup will rinse away under the hose. The smell might linger but I’ll happily sniff & even eat ketchup, I’m not going near dog poo.

Bit like Alyssa, never been stung so dunno if I’m allergic. My grandfather was highly allergic to bees.

Neither a bee or spider will hurt you if you do nothing but while both would make me squeal I’d prefer the bee.

Spider will look for somewhere dark & warm & can only run. It’ll likely crawl into my shirt. If a bee lands on me its taking a…[Read more]

My room is a sauna. Rest of the house do whatever temp ya want just don’t expect me there.

I’d rather be warm & alone than cold & social.

Absolutely. Like I’m good for a chat, argue a point whatever but I’m at a distinct disadvantage having just woken up & you’re discussing something that happened while I slept. I realised these people aren’t interested in conversation, just like having their opinion heard.

1 dude was awesome at his job but couldn’t stop with US politics. It’s…[Read more]

People asking my mum what I thought or how I felt when I was sitting right there drove her up the wall.

I got a pretty sharp tongue & quick with a joke so I’d back myself to make the baby talker look like the dickhead they were.

Probably nothing angers me more than being ignored. Or seeing people ignored.

I hate conflict but I’d rather the opportunity to engage & fight than be ignored altogether.

I’m the same. I’ve gotten rid of 2 support workers in the last 8mths because they couldn’t shut the *cough* up.

Just put me in the sling, hose me down in the shower & pump me full of coffee. Then we can say “good morning”.

I don’t think that is unreasonable; most people get up & shower before interacting with others.

I remember when I was 11 or 12 I sorta reasoned with myself that OK I’ll be physically weak but I’ll always be mentally strong.

I fell way short of that and fell into deep depression for years after some big things didn’t go well. I just didn’t care. Now I’m not as depressed and do care a bit so anxiety & regret has taken over.

Personally I…[Read more]

Great post, Losmi.

I get it mate. Absolutely. I’ve always been my harshest critic but have eased up a bit. Every time I can’t do something but drives me mad and I usually wind up frustrated swearing at myself. If my body kept up with my personality it’d be great. It doesn’t. Overall I’d hate myself more than I loved me.
