Melbourne

So we're all here because of a change in circumstances that none of us expected. I'm in my early 50s and a creature of habit, I don't cope well with change. I used to enjoy Twitter, but it's gone to shit, every third tweet is an irrelevant ad for something I've never expressed any interest in (crypto etc.). It's pretty much unusable now. I used to subscribe to The Age, hard copy, home delivered. But then Nine took it over and it started to go down hill, to the point where it's now the Herald Sun but for people who can read big words and long sentences. Pre-CoVid my favourite local bar was open five days a week, from at 5pm. I was usually the first in the door, and Fridays and Saturdays we'd be a big group handing a fair amount of money over the bar. Post-CoVid restrictions, the owners changed it to Fri/Sat only, late opening, and more of a club vibe to attract the younger crowd, so that killed it for me. I could go on, but this is turning into a bit of a rant, so I'll just finish by saying that because of the way my brain is wired, I need routine and predictability, and I'm really over shit changing around me in every aspect of my life and having no say in it. How do you guys cope with change?
