I love when you meet a masseuse who take it personally and see you as their personal project. Like a mother who eyes your dirty kitchen, roll up their sleeves, and make it their mission to right the wrongs. They just get to work, they don't nag about how you've hunched your shoulders too much and get your muscles all tense, they just tell you through the pain they inflict on you as if saying "you see this? rrright there? yeahhhh" and you're thinking to yourself "will I make it outta here? is this where I die?"

Do you make inappropriate noises too? I can't help it.

God, I am feeling... dead. I wish to take today off but I also want a long weekend, so I'll just have to grin it and bare it until Friday.

I can hear a singer playing an acoustic version of Faith by George Michael. Such a lovely evening 💜

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Nice! That, and Tracey Chapman's 'Fast Car', is the go to for every solo acoustic singer on a Sunday arvo at the pub.

I wish I could knit and play Baldur's Gate at the same time...

Edit: I feel like I could. It'd just be during cut scenes and combat. But sometimes they're so quick I won't be able to do the knitting.

You know what chatGPT is good for...? Coming up with inane responses for a PDP.

I really hate that when I try to study, I fall asleep. Holy shit, so inconvenient. Any suggestions for how to ease it?

Anyone here have recommendations for a good yoga youtube channel for a beginner with very low flexibility, dodgy knees and a lot of fat?

I know this has been discussed in the Daily thread previously but I forgot to save it.

Yoga with Adrienne is pretty nice. But be sure to find a beginner routine and not jump into the mid point of the advanced planche series like a friend did.

So we've switched over to a better Internet provider than Optus. But for some reason some websites work and some don't. Like YouTube is fine, but Mastodon just doesn't want to work. Twitter kind of works, but like other streaming services don't work. It's very weird. I'm getting better downloads and uploads than I have previously, but this is so weird

I'm making bread from scratch. I'm scared and excited all at the same time.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oooo you can do it! It's one of my favourite foods to make! Plus your house will smell like baked bread 🤤

Also, take a huge whiff of the dough after proofing; it smells like beer 🍺
