Jolanta replies on Dec 8, 2021:

Well, China is punishing Australia and has put tariffs on a lot of imports, like wine. Our prime minister and his party have managed to upset China many times now. The latest is not to send any delegates from the government for the winter olympics. Not that I do like what the Chinese government are up to but the way our government is doing this is not good for us, there are other ways.

Maybe that was a bit harsh of me to say but I have found that when I was visiting the US on several occasions if one discussed anything with others there they got very angry and aggressive if you did not agree with them.

@Budgie, @PBuck0145 Oh, how ignorant you are about Australia.

What sort of mental illness or religious insanity would cause something like this?

Jolanta replies on Oct 1, 2021:

@Budgie Hi, I to live in Australia and totally agree with you on all that, except the fact that you call the woman a bitch. After all nobody knows what goes on in a relationship, I am sure that he added to the troubles. And yes a lot of people get angry and use the kids as a weapon, that happens too, but for all that we don't know what really happed inside that relationship calling her a bitch and him a very nice man is not on.

Dead possum getting out of its house.

AnneWimsey comments on Sep 29, 2021:

Looks like a koala. Possums here are basically albinos, with much more pointy noses. Also burrowers, NEVER in trees

Jolanta replies on Sep 30, 2021:

Possums here live in trees, and also in roofs. They get into roofs and make a terrible racket at night. They ruin the roof with all the piddling they do.

glennlab comments on Sep 29, 2021:

Is it dead? stuck? or just a good shot?

Jolanta replies on Sep 29, 2021:

It is definitely dead. I got really close and it did not move, flies were in its eyes too.

Sometimes it is ok to take a step back and admit you are being completely ridiculous.

K9Kohle789 comments on Sep 26, 2021:

What do you think about life in general that is NOT ridiculous?

Jolanta replies on Sep 26, 2021:

Well, some things are but my life is pretty good if I may say so myself, even while I am here sitting in lockdown week six.

I notice this image being thrown around on social media.

Jolanta comments on Sep 24, 2021:

China is doing it with trade. Killing all other competition with cheep goods while also lending money to poor nations and when those nations cannot pay it back they take over industries and land. China is a formidable enemy.

Jolanta replies on Sep 25, 2021:

@FrayedBear Well, I am not so sure about the enemy bit. I have travelled extensively in Asia and every place I have been to China is building bases there. The people do not like it but you know the government has approved it as they get money in their own pockets for it. Just like they are buying up land in Australia not to mention the Darwin harbour.

I love laughing gas. Wish it was readily available.

Mcflewster comments on Sep 23, 2021:

The only time I have taken laughing gas was my visit to a dental hospital where the students that day were practicing extractions . i did laugh all the time when I was in the toilet afterwards. However subsequently I feel that I did not need to lose that tooth. It bled a lot afterwards and lost me a...

Jolanta replies on Sep 24, 2021:

@Mcflewster Ok, I don't know how it is when you go to the dentist is UK but here in Australia they discuss what to be done before the gas is given.

So, you think that if you did not have the gas you would still have the tooth?

Properly placed a good leech might also be helpful in treating ED. Attach him at the taint nightly. :)

ED?

Miserable people focus on what they hate about life.

LenHazell53 comments on Sep 20, 2021:

Effective people focus on changing the things they hate about life, including opening the eyes of dumb people to the truth that they are not really happy just willfully ignorant of reality.

Jolanta replies on Sep 21, 2021:

Oh, aren't you ever such a positive soul.

Miserable people focus on what they hate about life.

Julie808 comments on Sep 21, 2021:

While that might be true, it sounds a bit woo. My feeling is that when you're miserable, all you can think about is what is making you miserable, since it's consuming you. When you're happy, your focus is on what makes you happy. Simple as that. Pretending you're not in a miserable situation, ...

Jolanta replies on Sep 21, 2021:

You are right, when one is depressed nothing els matters, however in that hole one has to stop digging.

Miserable people focus on what they hate about life.

Word comments on Sep 21, 2021:

I find my "focus" is not because I am miserable but I find the things I hate to be the causation for my misery. It's not easy being optimistic when you are beaten down by a mob of people that cannot be well enough defended against.

Jolanta replies on Sep 21, 2021:

You can always walk away. Close your ears and eyes to those people.

Miserable people focus on what they hate about life.

Paul4747 comments on Sep 20, 2021:

Speaking as a miserable person, sayings like this are why we hate happy people. Happy people just aren't paying enough attention to how miserable life really is. :D

Wow, life in prison, sounds a bit excessive to me. Like people being deported to Australia for stealing bread somehow.

Jolanta replies on Sep 18, 2021:

He did eventually turn up. Did a bit of work and left early. Coming back tomorrow morning, so he said.

Climbed Horse Lake Mountain today and tried out a new hiking partner.

How long did that take?

Jolanta replies on Sep 17, 2021:

@LiterateHiker Did you have to go to bed at once after all that work?
