Went out to dinner tonight.
You could see everyone's, social battery run out at 8:30 on the dot. One guy literally got up and left.
I know we're all of a certain age, but still...

Sometimes I like to leave myself little notes in my notepad on my phone when I have a brainwave, here's an example of a recent one.

Rectangle Kookas taste better than circle Kookas.

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

Over The Garden Wall was removed from the Internet Archive and got pulled from some streaming services and reinstated on one… now is a great time to watch it if you still have access.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 6 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I hate that every fucking media company/distributor thinks they need their own fucking streaming service.

I remember when Netflix was actually amazing, so many movies and shows, docos, and now they have all been moved and Netflix is a piece of shit company funding some asshole making true crime a dramatic untrue retelling (Menendez brothers, and others).

And now shits being removed from the net. Enshittification ugh

Does anyone here watch MKR?

Shut up Lawrence. Just shut the fuck up. Your sour grape mansplaining is making me angry.

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Couldnt pay me to. Only Free to air I watch is Gogglebox and Thank God you're here. And if gogglebox is watching any reality stuff I just play with my phone till they stop. So i basically watch less than half of gogglebox I guess.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
