Rain starting in 7 minutes.

These new forecasts are like something out of Back to the Future.

Forecasts used to be for 3 days and were very general.

And yet we survived, we just let weather happen.

I've started watching Pachinko and I have never craved a bowl of pure white rice more. Some of the show might be corny and Jimmi Simpson and his butchering of the Japanese language is totally unnecessary, but it's so beautifully shot and such a compelling story of migration and colonisation. I never thought I'd see such mainstream depiction of Zainichi Koreans marketed to the West.

Can someone explain to me why mullets and mullet like hair styles are all the rage with teenagers? Are they mainly doing it to annoy their parents?

What an upset @Duenan@aussie.zone. The Heat copped a flogging from the Scorchers. Very surprising.

CEO - 11 Duenan - 11

Tonight's match is gonna be good.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah I know. I don’t know what quite happened there, I almost though the Scorchets didn’t score enough until the last over.

To add insult to injury the Heat I think got penalised for not completing a run after crossing over.

Anyway it’s the Melbourne showdown, shame Maxwell is already out.

Should be a good match!

@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone

Good game. Looks like the Renegades came up good tonight, can’t see them losing from here.

CEO - 12 Duenan - 11

Rightfully it should be your pick tomorrow because of the swap we made today.

We got the Thunder Vs the Strikers.

Good luck!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago

Yay we won one.

This one's a hard one but I think I'll stick with the Strikers. Good luck!
