I dug out what I thought was a combination DVD and VHS player and plugged it into the TV, turns out it was just a really big DVD player. I couldn’t get it working with the RCA inputs into the receiver so I’ve just hooked up the other DVD player for the moment. The current DVD player also has RCA output and that didn’t work either, so it could be the cable.
I put on some DVDs for the kids and it was so much better. You know what you’re in for, the shows have a proper start and end, and they can pick out a DVD like they do books when they’re ready
Late Night Club Sign-In
Spud - ✅
I’m on night watch, stoking the fire and looking out for danger
Late night patrol on duty!
Aye aye käpitan!
What are you up?
Being grossly drunk, full of leftovers -on-pita-bread-pizza , and about to conk out after making sure my alarms are set for class tomorrow (today).
What about you? :)
Slaying filthy Xenos as a Space Marine
Glory to the Emperor!
Gory
Purge the Heretics!!
HR dumped this on a random desk in my office to show their gratitude for all we do. Starts off with “Hi team”. There’s two people who work in this area, me and someone else and we aren’t in the same team, not even in the same site technically.
Dunno why they couldn’t be honest and just say they found this at the back of their cupboard when doing a clean out. It would have been less insulting.
Probably done with the “best of intentions”, trouble is best of intentions really don’t mean shit when acting on behalf of the company.
Check the use by dates.
Can’t see any on them. Lol.
Someone in HR has children that no longer likes these snacks so has empty their pantry on your desk.
Exactly my thoughts, lol.
Comes on the same day the site I work at was in the news because someone went whistle blowing to the media about conditions.
Very Homer Simpson “Inanimate? I’ll show you inanimate” vibes.
😂
You have to let it be known that a gift card would be more appreciated next time.
You’re still gonna eat some though I bet
Nah. I have a weird thing about packet food from strangers so I won’t touch it.
In that case, perhaps we can go trick or treating together on Halloween ?😀
Dan does the tricks, God gets the treats. Seems fair 🤷🏼♀️
Haha like a lolly pimp 😎
The only legit type of pimp
Leave it all openly placed in your desk bin?
They’re down in Hobart. They’ll never see it. Was basically a dump and run.
Mail it back (on the company dime of course)
Gosh that is tempting.
Drank last night, drinking tonight (because I forgot my FIL was coming over from Perth, and always goes to the turf bar lol), prolly drinking tomorrow (races that FIL must do when he comes to Melbs).
If I end up depression-posting, remind me I’ve been drinking for three days straight please
I’m not gonna tell you about the perils of drinking but make sure you’ve got something in ya guts before ya start boozing ok.
I had a big feast of fish and chips just before lol thank you! I shall try to remember to remain hydrated!!
👍
My poor LittleOne, he’s scared enough to abandon dinner 😿
Why? Did you chase him around with a knife and fork?
You don’t have sky BOOMs?
Oh his dinner not yours. Got it.
Yeah. I feed my dog snacks during the boom booms but little pussy-cats are different. I hope he’s ok soon.
Noooo the T20 Women’s team got knocked out :(
We lost to South Africa.
Just ate a toastie that when I saw it I thought “hmm, it doesn’t look great, but slim pickings, so whatever”… how wrong I was proven. Mushrooms, cheese, pesto, perfectly salty and heavenly and happiness!
As a fundraiser, the school sent us to a website where you can view some art your kid has done and then order it as a pillow, tote bag, calendar or a bunch of other options. Only this website lets you look at every piece of art that every kid in the school has done and pick any art any kid at the school has done. You just say I want this kid’s art on my $15 tote bag, thanks.
My dilemma is my kid is not the greatest artist in the school.
You go the cheapest option available with your own child’s artwork and you will love it because it’s the best artwork ever.
Ps. Can you please approve Seagoon’s new login details.
There are no new account requests waiting for approval.
Well, there was one, but it was some spam about roof repairs in Canberra and I rejected that one. Now, there are none waiting.I’ve sent a message to her.
I’m not sure what the dilemma is? You afraid nobody will buy their artwork?
@Duenan has hit the issue right on the head. 😆
Oh right, I thought that was a given that you would buy one. Shit, I’ll buy one
who cares? its made with love. trumps any kind of artistic talent any day of the week.
Sounds like a copyright nightmare. Did you sign some sort of release?
As a parent you’re obligated to get your own kid’s art.
Without a doubt!
Yeah, we will of course. His artwork is even pretty good - particularly for him.
Maybe if you want you can ask him if he wants to pick one out as well.
If you want to send a message to encourage art improvement, get another kids art on a tote or framed lol
“This could be you one day. But for now, it’s little Tommy in your class.”
Damn some lowlife has put a cigarette lighter to every single intercom camera on the apartment buildings along my street. Some people really fucking suck
I’ve ordered 2 pizzas. Guess what they are?
Aussie and meat lover ?
None of those
hawaiian and pepperoni?
One of them
I order a half and half for dinner tonight. It’s what has kept me going today.
Mystery pizza of course
😂
No I definitely picked these toppings.
I think it’s an Aussie with an egg
Luxury
No.
Hawaiian and supreme W anchovies
I’ll give that to you
Hawaiian and the lot. 🏆
Too easy
Dammit. That was going to be my next guess.
probably one with anchovies.
I have extra bin space btw free of charge.
I eat anchovies. I’m not a wuss.
I normally die on hills but this is not one of them.
Hawaiian?
You’re meant to pick two.
Meat lovers as the 2nd one.
One of them is correct
capricossa or however you spell it?
I do love a capricciosa but no.
Hey so you all know my body is giving me an extremely hard time with eating/food and I’m still in a very long process of finding out why.
Would it be weird if I kept contributing to the Tucker Time thread/wherever with things I’ve had in the past or look good?
I’m trying to get the Aussie corner of Lemmy more active
No it’s not weird and I’d love you to contribute.
Sweet, I’ma check if chicken is still cheap (I know there’s a limit on eggs) and post a nice simple chicken doner I saw
Finally got food into me.
Not feeling too great today. Was out grocery shopping and felt a wave of dizziness and, ears felt blocked and I came down with major sweats.
If I didn’t have a wall or trolley with me I would have needed to sit down right then and there.
Anyway I did manage to do my shopping and I am home now.
Going to maybe get another sandwich and coffee and sit down for awhile.
Maybe grab some cold and flu tablets just in case
Ill take some panadol and nutafen for the moment just incase since that’s all I have.
I’ve literally sat here doing nothing except the laundry ever since I got home.
I had about 3 hours sleep last night, so that sounds like a great day lol
Not really to be honest. Feeling a bit rubbish after my episode today.
How come you couldn’t sleep last night? Too wired from last night?
Way too wired. Just feeling real positive and in a good mood! I’m not saying I’m unhappy a lot, but it’s a nice change from the norm.
Honk Honk 🚢

Thanks again for coming along last night, was awesome to meet you :)
You were awesome!!
Been getting into baseball this year, with the playoffs going on right now and there is nothing so satisfying as the sound the ball makes off the bat when they crush a home run.
Today’s Yankees/Guardians game was crazy.
Seagoon update: login issues and she is waiting for her new account to be approved
Wait, what? There’s no accounts waiting for approval?
Awesome ❤️
I’m glad to hear she is not Seagone. The unexpected absence was concerning.
Can I pre-order a fancy big cake for a welcome back celebration?
I’m glad to hear she is not Seagone.
😂
Yes. Complete with marzipan art brushes and a fluffy meringue pair of cats on the top.
We have begun preparations
WE WANT SEAGOON, WE WANT SEAGOON, WE WANT SEAGOON!
We have no power here
