My previous account was @dumblederp@aussie.zone I left it because Rowling has turned out to be a pretty shitty person and I don't want the association.

Mostly I'm just here for idle friendly conversation over shared interests.

I can get caught up in my own stubbornness on some topics.

  • Those of you who cut off all comms with your parents, what would it take to mend things and reestablish contact?

    Jump

  • An apology, acknowledgement of wrongdoings and the $400k dad cost me by ignoring my grandfathers wishes for the inheritance. Writing that out, I'll likely never talk to him again.

  • California is completely free of drought for the first time in 25 years

    Jump

  • G'day. I think the drought has come back down under. We had a good run in Australia but Victorian water reserves are dropping again.

  • Summer festival-goers continue to abandon truckloads of camping gear

    Jump

  • I took a $60 tent to festivals and camping for 10+ years until I wore through the floor. Probably slept in that thing 200+ nights. Lived out of it for six weeks at one point.

  • "The company is going to have to find ways to monetise more aggressively" Would Discord going public be good or bad for its users? We spoke to an expert to find out

    Jump

  • If nitro was $10-15 a year I'd have signed up ages ago. $10 a month is more expensive than my mobile phone plan.

  • Meta blocked nearly 550,000 accounts in first days of Australia’s under-16s social media ban

    Jump

  • Australia should block meta.

  • Anime Questions, Recommendations, and Discussion Thread [2026, Week 03]

    Jump

  • I really enjoyed muishishi, bocci the Rock and Spy x family. I'd appreciate some other modern anime recommendations. Thanks. Edit: Thanks for the suggestions.

  • I spilled the beans on playing D&D and other Tabletops to a new work crew and it didn't go well.

    Jump

  • Rad I'll check it out. I was playing a barbarian, not sophisticated.

  • I spilled the beans on playing D&D and other Tabletops to a new work crew and it didn't go well.

    Jump

  • I just played an Indian themed character and could not bring myself to do the Apu voice. I've even lived in India.

  • I spilled the beans on playing D&D and other Tabletops to a new work crew and it didn't go well.

    Jump

  • I played a discord game during covid with a yank, aussie, german and swiss at the table. Really added a different vibe than a bunch of Aussies like usual.

  • I spilled the beans on playing D&D and other Tabletops to a new work crew and it didn't go well.

    Jump

  • I love dnd with foreigners, they've already got an accent to me.

  • I spilled the beans on playing D&D and other Tabletops to a new work crew and it didn't go well.

    Jump

  • Can you reach out to non work mates in the area? Best revenge would be making a group of friends while away.

    I love gaming, including jiu-jitsu, whenever bullied about dnd I offer bjj as an alternative. Shuts em right up.

  • Australia to form royal commission into antisemitism after Bondi mass shooting

    Jump

  • I feel we barely act on Royal Commissions, they give strong meh vibes.

  • Is this MURDER?

    Jump

  • I've never been happier to live in the Southern Hemisphere.

  • Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

    Jump

  • Idk if its patient but I started Arc Raiders and it's great.

  • Is this MURDER?

    Jump

  • The US court system: no.Everyone else: yes.

  • pamts

    Jump

  • Glad you had a good experience. That's what I bought and they were a total fucking waste of time and money. They wore through in a few months. Fuck Duluth, i feel like they were my first BIFL rip off experience.

    The second being Opinel, the locking collar cracked and the tip snapped off without sketchy use.

  • pamts

    Jump

  • Not fuckin Duluth trading co. Wore out in a few months, being in Australia the warranty is useless too.

    5.11 cargo pants last me ages.

  • Can China Replace an Absent America in the Climate Fight: Beijing never bought the argument that reducing emissions would cause economic harm.

    Jump

  • I'm generally in the fuck China camp, but their embracing of green energy solutions is the best thing I've seen come out of that country in my lifetime. They're not beholden to resource lobbyists who want to keep gas/coal/oil in as much use as possible.

  • Can China Replace an Absent America in the Climate Fight: Beijing never bought the argument that reducing emissions would cause economic harm.

    Jump

  • or Tibetan, or Mongolian, or Taiwanese, or a Honky, or many Aftricans...
