Tobias, have you been flogging Simpsons prop replicas on the internet again?

in ten years a pack of smokes will be 90 bucks.

Apparently they stopped making Champion Ruby 40g as well so in the span of a year I've gone from buying whatever 25g used to be to dropping $100 on 50g without really thinking about it. Two bucks a gram isn't bad for tobacco, but I bet the change in pouch size is just to see how high they can push the single purchase ceiling, if everyone balked and switched to 20g or whatever it is now they'd have to shake it up again.

NVJ was actually my parachute account, now that Bort's dead I can let that shameful secret out. When anyone asks who hand-chamfered the ride-on mower blades at Cox Industries Acacia Ridge, who was the assistant alfoil-wrap technician at the Mullumbimby Guzman Y Gomez, who was the best welding wire fetcher boy at the Kuraby railyards, it was I. My name is Non-Violent J, 2ic of 2ics. Look upon my jobs, ye mighty and despair!

Thanks for the recommendations! Seal Rocks looks nice and I've never been there before so it's currently at the top of the list. Wollombi/Broke are lovely, I've spent a lot of time out there already though. I'll get to looking up some of the other suggestions. Hopefully soon before we all have to hermitise again, yeech

When I quit smoking, my prime motivator was that durries were too expensive and I couldn't afford them. I was newly redundant thanks to the GFC, my ex had just left me in a shitload of credit card debt, a packet of Peter Jackson extra mild 30's cost $34 and I was so stressed that I was going through a packet a day.

I thought it was expensive to smoke back then, it's flat out insane what it costs now.

I never played DoomRL and am tempted to give Jupiter Hell a go but I agree $35.95 is a bit much for something like that.

Best roguelike ever made was never finished unfortunately, Iter Vehemens ad Necem or 'IVAN', translating to Violent Way to Death.

Pleasantly surprised to learn that the community has continued working on it, even releasing a v0.58 this year https://attnam.com/index.php

I remember one day we were all watching the stream of someone in Mackay during the cyclones and the windchimes just kept chiming the whole time.


Also the power went out so he had to use the alternator from his motorcycle to power the livestream or something.

I remember watching that stream holy poo poo it was freaky. Had an ex who was determined to be in a cyclone one day but also didn't want to be one of those tornado chasers it had to be natural. I could never figure out the logistics with ending up in that situation unless he was gonna go north for a "holiday" and hope one hits. Hope he achieves that dream one day.

I purchased some Radox bath salts and had a hot bath (drunk & stoned of course). Soaked for maybe 45 mins, draining water via the plug and topping up with hot water. Then scrubbed my skin and removed the epidermis with a pumice stone.

Did not play music. Just silence.

gently caress me I feel clean. My skin is like silk.

Growing up in North West WA we went through a few which were quite bad, then I moved to the east coast and thought I was safe. Then I got stuck in Fiji over last Christmas due to one for a few extra days and well that was actually really good.

The island didn't have power for much of it but they did really well and we all just kind of had a school camp with the cool staff who couldn't go home, we shared extra toiletries and cloths and just made the most of it.

I was up at Airlie Beach a few years ago when a cyclone hit. Think it was 'only' a Cat 2-3 from memory, but it was fun enough.
Knocked the power out, and all my ex's family could think about was making sure they could watch a live stream of some Chinese New Year TV special, so out into the storm I went and got absolutely loving drenched looking for dinner.

Found the only takeaway in town that still had power because they installed a generator a few years before. Had a yarn to the owner while waiting, and it had apparently paid for itself the number of times the power got cut due to a storm.
Old mate triple bagged all the orders so they didn't rip in the wind while I was carrying them back to the motel. Onya mate.

Going out the day after and surveying the damage was fun. A good 2-3 boats in the harbour ripped from their anchors and just obliterated themselves against the shore.
