I feel like it doesn't get said enough so I need to reiterate this to the universe but the lanes on Bell St west of Sydney Rd are TOO DAMN NARROW

I have now spent way too long learning to do captions for YouTube videos. Then I discovered that the default position for them blocks the video of what I am doing. After much investigation I have discovered that you can drag the subtitles where you want them when you watch, unless you are using the app. Which of coarse automatically opens when you watch a video. I have now disabled the app, as I apparently can't delete it, and now videos are opening in the browser. It is frustrating how many companies put out apps with extremely limited features and then push everything to open in them. If I wanted to use the blasted app I wouldn't be in my browser.

I finally booked in for an eye appointment. I hope I don't need new glasses, but I hope I can get my new ones cleaned up or something (though I might need to pay for new glass because I think one lens has a scratch).

Looks like the oil leak is an defective oil filter.

The notification bell not clearing properly is making me irrationally irritated.

I came away with this at Aldi today. I’ll go and pick up the kipper tomorrow from Colesworth but I thought I’d give this a shot just because.

Pizza dough had been made. I was originally planning a stir-fry, but today seems much more suited to pizza.

For anyone still using Reddit, are you getting a weird thing with the Popular feed where you click on a post and it ‘opens’ two or three posts and then to get back to the Popular feed you have to go back 2-3 times?

It's not stressful driving into the office (in Sydney) during school holidays. Even better if I were WFH. Oh well.
