Speaking of face masks - does anyone else have an issue with their mask trying to slide up their face into their eyes?

It's 3am and I can still feel the mask I wore all day, even though I took it off about 5 hours ago.

Infinitum posted:A historic and proud day for Collingwood, finally free of Eddie Saw his speech earlier on ABC24 - not a single loving word or thought in it which wasn't about himself. "I was a self-centred arse and people called me out and that hurt my feelings." He even had a bit of a sob as he went on. Nothing about the victims of racial abuse. Nothing about what the club can do moving forward to help and compensate them. Just stood there and played the victim with tears in his eyes. It was disgusting.

Who picks up if they don't know the number? Unless I'm expecting a call from an unknown number, I set my phone to block all incoming calls and messages which aren't in my contacts.

Bill Posters posted:They're intentionally bad. They only want to fool the absolute dumbest people so they don't waste any time grooming people who might figure out the scam later on. They still make bank regardless. I kept getting ones purporting to be from Powercorp and Optus, but I've never used either company so that was pretty fun. Had to install an app to stop them calling because I couldn't do it through Android, probably because of how they spoofed their ID. A co-worker's parents who are well into their 80s and have never owned a computer and still have a landline get constant calls about problems with their Windows installation and internet connection. Never get a landline. The amount to scam calls they apparently get a day is insane. Like, about 30 calls. Most in the evening when they're trying to have tea. Also, a landline apparently cost around $60 a month. For something which only does phone calls. loving scam to rip off the olds. And my condolences to everyone who can't just block all this poo poo.

Carlos Lantana posted:Noone got detention because they were still beating children with sticks. I went to a bunch of different schools growing up in the 70s and 80s and I'll never forget the last one I attended. A teacher broke one of those metre long wooden rulers across the back of a kid's legs for the horrible crime of not paying attention in class. Not making a nuisance, just not staring in rapt attention at the loving psychopath of a teacher. This was the also same school where I got suspended for a week for not being "respectful" and standing for a minute's silence after a student in my class got killed. While he was trying to rape someone.

He tried to pull her off her horse when she was out riding, the horse kicked him in the chest. It was not a nice school (no country schools are) and he was the worst person there. I knew the girl because all the farming families knew each other and very quickly heard what happened. So, when they held a special assembly of the entire school, I really wasn't in the mood. We were all told to stand up for a minute's silence, I said no. I also said why. And the rest is :decorum:

Zazi posted:my new house had drifts of rat poo poo in it. Just pulling up the carpet, pouring piles of rat poo poo onto the floorboards. Rat mess on the walls. Desiccated rat skull poking through the hole the wires to the meters came out. Saw a rat the other day walking two legged carrying a chewed up nectarine. Found a half-eaten fig in the shed, we don't even have a fig tree (do figs come on trees?). I grew in lovely rural hellsville and distinctly remember the mouse plagues in the 80s. Usually in the middle of the night after a stressful day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWVw-j8eYSk&t=33s I'll never forget the time we knocked the door off a silo and a wave of rats came pouring out. The loving stench of mouse piss and poo poo, fermented mouse remains all squished into a heap at the bottom of the silo and tonnes of ruined grain was actually worse than being almost knee deep in a brown tidal wave of vermin.

Lolie posted:The Guardian is reporting that some of the walk in vaccination hubs in Victoria have a 3 hour wait time. I was so lucky when I got my test, less than an hour and a half sitting in the car waiting. Also, after almost a year and a half not getting sick in the slightest because of masks and sanitising*, apparently my immune system has turned to wet tissue paper. I'm currently on day 5 of the worst flu of my life and still sick as a goddamn god. * which was pretty loving nice, gotta say.

McSpergin posted:Fuckin sparkies I was going to get a small A/C for the room where I have the computer set up. I got quotes from both Bunnings and the Good Guys, both were under a grand for the install. Whirlpool is a STEM brained cesspool, but they come in useful for asking questions like that. Their horrible group mind recommended either those companies because they use dedicated installers and make sure they do a decent job and don't overcharge so it doesn't blow back against their image.

Infinitum posted:Me at work unable to see poo poo because my glasses keep fogging up from my mask I modify the poo poo of my masks to get them to stop fogging up. I pull the wire out so I can pull them right up under the nosepieces so the top of the mask is secured. If I leave the wire in, my glasses don't sit right. Then I roll the side down slightly to stop it trying to slide into my eyes and staple it in place. (I mean staple the mask over onto itself, not staple it to my actual face) Then, because that makes the mask shorter, I unstick one of the folds. Takes about three or four minutes but means I barely have to worry about fogging at all during a shift. Yes, it's a nuisance doing it every time. But if you're wearing a mask all day every day, it's well worth the effort.

Great, now I've got that loving song in my head. EDIT: I was going to get vaxxed up, but everywhere near me (literally within 75km) is the blood clot one. Does anyone know when the Pfizer one is going to become available again. I know the risk is low, but I've lost three relatives over the years to clots, so it's not something I take lightly.

This woman has been driven insane trying to buy a new hand held showerhead My cheap ebay showerhead finally broke and I'm trying to find a new one which either has good water pressure or can be modified so it has good pressure. Yes, this is why my cheap one finally broke, I drilled out the "water saving" bit in the handle and put too much pressure through it. But it lasted over a year, which is good enough for something that only set me back $20. Now, I'm on the hunt for a new one and went to Kogan to see what they had. Turns out, what they have is the same showerhead over and over, but with different prices. Someone tell me what the difference is between all of these, beyond their price: $82.79 $51.42 $51.20 $41.93 $49.76 $39.57 $17.28 $16.82

tithin posted:https://twitter.com/PeterDutton_MP/status/1414430137060192256?s=19 I mean Pfizer was always going to say this because they know who pays them. But I'd bet a ball that the Libs contacted them and demanded they release this statement. Now we just wait for Rudd to release a video of him having dinner with the Pfizer execs and one saying, "Thanks Kev, without you we never would have sent those other 10million doses. Australia owes you a huge debt given that the Australian government hasn't made any effort to contact us for months."

Snowglobe of Doom posted:The PM's earlier statement was also worded very very carefully to look like it was completely dismissing Rudd's claims without actually contradicting any of them That's what makes it even funnier. So when the inevitable evidence of Rudd moving things along comes out, the LNP and Mr Potatohead can all try to roll it back and just look like even bigger idiots. It's the big brain political thinking you'd find in a children's show where the baddies are frightening but also very stupid.
