    I’ve managed to lose a pair of sunglasses and it’s really, really annoying me. It’s like they vanished into thin air.

    I have a whole rant and I feel stupid posting it but BAH… inconsequential bullshit taking up my brain, but also why did Lisa release a song named Tarantino that specifically mentions hanging her feet out the Camino? Like, girl, WHERE IS YOUR TEAM. And if this your team, fire them and start again 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮

      I read through the lyrics and I’m inclined to think that was the feet line was the inspiration for the song. Like she thought of the camino/Tarantino joke and built the rest around it.

      She references Hollywood and Kill Bill a few times but it feels like they’re just there to keep the theme (as opposed to like… making a song about his filmography)

        It just reeks of desperation. The clip is even worse. It could have been a super cool bad ass MV if it didn’t feature her having a letter begging to be his muse.

    Alright. I published a demo on Bandcamp. It’s a start. I’ve been making industrial music for like, 3 years and never really did anything with it.

    Knew I wasn’t going to sleep well last night, so stayed up too late reading a shitty book, then spent too long being grumpy about how shitty the book was. So I guess it gave me some form of entertainment.

    I am so over small country towns

    if not for the gold rush money they would be very ordinary

    scrub that, they would be awesome if the houses still cost $200,000 and not $1,000,000

      Having grown up around small country towns, I appreciate seeing that so many of them are trying to do their own thing and stand out in a bleak landscape. However, I would never opt to live in one again.

      Same price pressures in most country towns as everywhere else. Population growth, construction costs skyrocketing, holiday homes and short term accomodation growth. Only the really isolated places are still cheap.

    Ordered a bunch of sensor lights of aliexpress for Kris kringle this year.

    I was thinking of getting one of those microwavable heat packs to watch all the women of a certain age fight over it, but a lot of those women have left now

          I know a few people in the area. The behind the scenes vibe reminds me of Nimbin, where easy going hippies didn’t handle a bunch of sketchy addicts moving into the area.

            It very much reminds me of Nimbin.

            first the poor hippies moved in, then the people who want to be artists and think they need to live in an arty bohemian community, now the upper class professionals have moved in

            the professionals buy the art and antiques and exclusive designer clothes

            judging by housing and the shops there is no longer any middle or working class

            also, weird, we had six cops board the train at kyneton and they checked everyone’s tickets , that’s 2 cops per carriage

            on a tiny country train 🤷‍♀️

      They do. A curry pie from the shop next to the post office please. Actually any flavour as they’re all good. That is, if the shop is still there as it’s been a while since I visited.

    I need to call ASIC in the next couple of days. Turns out the business was created an exact year earlier than the kids, so the two (three? since the kids are twins) entities share a birthday.

    For the last couple of years I’ve gotten the first reminder letter from ASIC where they bump up the price for registration. And I’m like, ‘excuse me? I never received the first notice?’ So I need to call and figure out how this shit works.

      I’m dealing with this shit all the time.

      Fees are updated each year on 30th June. Info on ASIC website - link

      DM for more details if needed

        I think I’ve got it sorted now. Just need to find my corporate key so I can get my invoices actually emailed to me. Had the longest 2 minute hold of my life, good thing I did it during work.

          Only 2 mins? Dear holy god you were lucky. The normal hold time is over 30 mins and can be hours. Corporate key will be on last year’s annual company statement - top right hand corner. If you really can’t find it, go to the ASIC website and order a new one which will be mailed to the company’s registered office.
