Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
DAY 30 COMPLETED! 🎉🎊 The first time in my whole life I have stuck to a daily exercise regimen! I’m feeling pretty chuffed right now. The only question for me now is what to do next! Should I move on to the intermediate level? Do something different? Decisions decisions!
Yoo that’s amazing peeler! You did it! Personally, I’d stick at the current level for maybe a few days to a week, but that’s just me. Perhaps you might be one of the people that needs an ever increasing (but doable) challenge to stay engaged?
I’m no expert on this, maybe if you feel ok work up a little to the next level but in incremental steps.
Anyway congratulations! Keep up the good work!
You’re honestly an inspiration given everything else you need to wrangle in your life!! I envy being able to stick to a regimen. What does the intermediate level vs Something Different look like?
Thanks for the encouragement! The intermediate level has some exercises I’m not really sure are that good for the back, so I’m a little sceptical of my ability to do it. I’d be more interested in some good low impact cardio. Or making my own routine based on the ones I’ve been doing.
Smashing it!!! You should be so proud of yourself! Love it and loving your journey! 💜😍
Awesome! Proud of you sis. You’ve helped me maintain my routine as well. 10k will be walked today, I did nearly 5 at work so it’s just another hour.
My advice is to keep doing what you can make into a habit but you do you.
Thankyou! I can safely say that I am totally in the habit of going for that 10 or so minutes of exercise before work in the morning. I actually look forward to it! It’s me time for self improvement and I’m still enjoying it! I’m thinking of making up a 10 minute routine based on the ones I’ve been doing but with some of the exercises swapped out for ones I enjoy doing more. Unless I find some good low impact cardio routine I’d like to try… I’ll have another look tonight.
Old mate next door (he has a few screws loose) is cutting his lawn on his knees with hand shears again.
I’ve tried to lend him a mower but it’s his thing.
If it sparks joy then who am I to say anything.
Just a bit unnerving to see/hear someone do that for a few hours when it’d take 5 mins max with manual push mower.
He must be drowning in painkillers for his knees and back to keep tolerating that
Shit, housemates cat has cognitive heart failure… I feel so sad for them, we got our cats at the same time and we’ve shared since they were kittens so it’s heart break all round.
Today’s ride to work is in a Tesla! It’s a fancy car but I still hate Musk.
@landsharkkidd @bot001 for what? Freedom of speech and academic, professionalism?
Freedom of speech as long as you don’t criticise him or disagree with him. Not exactly freedom is it now?
And hard to apply professionalism to him, as he’s essentially a rich toddler throwing tantrums.
Not sure what his contribution to academia is to be honest.
If he were racist he’d have been cancelled long ago. But cos he’s a transphobe and exploits his workers it’s considered freedom of speech and business as usual. I imagine his money doesn’t reflect his thoughts when it’s just him and his pillow trying to sleep.
Freedom of speech doesn’t have to stop people from hating you. Enabling transphobia is worthy of all of our hatred. Opinions on trans people are invalid. We just are who we are. Fuck him and his dirty money. My old boss had a tesla. I called it the big ipod on wheels. He wasn’t impressed.
I guess the Musk bots are out in full force.
Not even going to humble you with a response. Go back to licking his boot.
@landsharkkidd lick or bite his boot, up to you [laugh]
Meetings at 4pm are bad enough, but you know what’s worse?
When some fuckwit actually says ‘Hey can everyone please turn their cameras on so we can see you all’. They said it with waaay too much enthusiasm for a 4 pm meeting, or any meeting for that matter.
My workplace forgot to issue me a camera and I haven’t bothered to push the issue. Maybe it’s time for your camera to break and for IT to drag their heels on a replacement.
I’d activate my avatar (this is in Teams, not sure if other apps have similar)
