completed the cycle all good without breaking down with error codes. now doing a second dish batch.

if its still good by the time i can get the new part in two weeks time, i aint gonna bother. $9.80 for glue, sounds a lot better than $56 for the actual part + delivery charge on top whatever that is.

Funny thing is the maintenance call out fee and costs every 15 minutes were that insane i thought id diagnose it myself, as the error doesn't kick in until at least 30 mins or such, so yeah ka-ching.

Another JOATMON moment :P

had a shiit week and my dishwasher has been on the fritz. took me a few days of troubleshooting and found the issue. the brands warehouse is currently in location transition and theres a two week delay on part required. The dishes are stacked in the sink so i went to local hardware store and got dishwasher safe super glue. applied it waited the recommended three minutes to set. popped it in and doing first batch right now. if it pops open again ima reapply glue and cure it for 12-24 hours but so far so good.

The other thing is i havent had my medicinal cannabis for three weeks now. Its coming from a different Chemist this time and its due for delivery any minute now.

Stoked.

I come to find with being an Atheist, science and logic compliment it. No rules. Just facts. And old facts get replaced with better new facts.


There's a comfortable trust and ease there. I could read the short science article (or delve deep) and accept it knowing full well that people have rigorously peer reviewed it and can replicate it, and at this stage in time, it is the valid answer for that topic, until we improve it with better science.


Being brought up with religion, i am still trying to shake the foundations of some stuff like ghosts, spirituality, superstitions and such and just trying to reassure myself now that unless it is validated through science, i shouldn't live with the uncertainty by frying my noggin with it. Leave it to the experts. Let it be proven or ignore it.

WW iii is inevitable. Do I care? Nope. Why? It's a dirty business certain people will profit from at the expense of innocent lives. And if you challenge that establishment, you're gonna get locked up. Quite pathetic really. #freeAssange

So i was on a date with this fine lass. She didnt finish her entire meal as she was into that portion control stuff. i thought that was neat. we payed for the meal and then the waiter came back to our table, looked at her plate and said would you like a box for that meal? She said nah, but i will wrestle you for it. keeper.

my netflix original joke: during covid, i ordered chinese takeaway over the phone. the delivery guy turned up and knocked on my door. i opened it standing real close without a mask on. he got all frantic and started yelling isolate, isolate! i said relax bro i only ordered it half an hour ago.

Dave that's a tragic outlook. Maybe go be a Tibetan Monk or something.

My mum has a sister that got knocked up as a young adult, the prick also knocked up another lady at the same time and also married her. My aunt gave the kid away for adoption, worked her whole life and never got married, and it was purely out of shame.

Same level of tragedy.

I value and respect old traditions and values but some things bare no logic. One life.

i had a major sporting injury in my teens, with the flow on effect of developing chronic insomnias in my young adult years. i went to many of these spiritual and religious charlatans, and apart from one it always included parting ways with lots of money. nothing worked and i eventually got around it with man-made science / organic medicine.

having said that, i sometimes get omens in dreams, not all the time but usually when there is an upcoming heightened crisis in my personal life, sometimes what i see in the dream happens verbatim 9 months later. its pretty random though. not everything and i havent had one for years now. i dont see it as supernatural or from spirits when you zone in. i see it as a heads up from the universe or maybe my brain processing fuzzy stuff and reaching an outcome and telling me.

i believe the brain is a powerful organ though. sometimes id be coding something and hacking at it for many hours getting nowhere. id go to sleep. wake up the next day, and blitz it in 5 minutes. the brain never shuts down and its always working on something for you in the background.

one time as a kid i was going to bed and had a thought come to me that im gonna wake up at exactly 6am. all that was was a weighted guess. or one time during university i wanted to hear a specifc song, it wasnt a current pop song, turned car radio on and there it was. all it was was a good guess and i would never be able to repeat it.

youngest was supposed to be sleeping over here again as its the easter long weekend. her mom said no on thurs after their trip to syd then drama class, so i didnt bother pursuing it. got a call from kid earlier, said she was at our favourite beach with her mum and sis and told me to get there.

ten mins later im there and we're in the ocean, i guess.

as we walking into the water im like i understand your mom cant go in for company, but why didn you go with mons? your good now. she said its more fun with you. hehe.

her mum cant swim and hasnt even been in deeper salt water than her ankles. and she has this fear of the ocean which doesnt help neither when its me with the kids in there as they were growing up.

ive taught all three girls how to body surf (little one also likes body board, middle one has learnt to use a surf board at school and wants to borrow my board) and to always respect the ocean and take it seriously as anything can happen like being caught in a rip, massive waves, etc and if **** hits the fan to signal the patrolling life guards for help.

little one said she leaving with me and im like okay and thought adolf must have approved it earlier. cool.

unplug the network cable or disable wifi, take a screenshot of apps installed, backup your data to external hdd, reformat windows, manually copy data back, reinstall all apps again, stop clicking on dumb emails or porn ads. repeat in a few months?

or just install a free Linux Desktop (Zorin OS/Linux Mint are good) and learn to use a real Desktop Environment even though steep learning curve if you delve deeper, but nothing like three decades ago.

nothing wrong with that. older women need a good thing too. she'll probably cook you a good meal and the conversation will be priceless.

some just wanna go that solo route and experience that motherhood thing. good on them, thankfully i have morals and dont contribute to this farce.

and old friend was telling me about how his brother had a child with this chick. apparently she moves around our regions and gets knocked up on intentionally. kid number four with four different blokes.

cool thing is she is a professional nurse and saved a kids life right in front of my mate. you get all sorts.

i got full membership yesterday - i like the effort they put into using beautiful yet fake photos of other women and shutting them down with wit is kinda therapeutic.

im 52 and on the flipside had some like 76 year old secretly like me, she looks quite nice for a GILF.
