My personal life is a bit of a trainwreck TBH, but I thought we were discussing careers.
Mine is somewhat of a trainwreck, I suppose its all relative.

my personal life is fairly blighted too but i don't consider them too inseparable from careers. you can't have one without the other and they are pretty interdependent. one sort of defines or delimits the other, no? gotta find a balance dilbs.

do you wanna get a house together in melbourne?

I'm somewhat fixed in Adelaide, but Melbourne is good to visit.

Are you moving to Melbourne?

there's a girl i know who works in publishing there and we're sorta half in love but without really ever intending to solidly make anything of it

i would move to melbourne if i could find a decent publishing job.

not going to stat a PhD until my brother passes and i've breathed that sigh of relief.

If I had to pick a city to live in in Aus it would be Melbourne, the job thing is key.
Adelaide suits me better for various reasons ATM, although it could end up like Detroit in 10 years the way its going.

Don't buy an apartment, the building quality is fucked up in all kinds of ways.

everyone says melbourne is the most cosmopolitan and 'european', if you will, of the aussie cities. plus it does have all the publishing and media jobs. but i don't know that much about it except that a bunch of cool people i know live there.

i wouldn't be buying any property as my life situation is too fluid and changing at the moment.

You two should move to America. People will think you are really smart because of your accents.

Melbourne probably is the most European, its a funny place, everyone seems dour and in a terrible rush to be somewhere, apart from the tourists and the students who are all asian. There are also a hell of a lot of middle-eastern looking immigrants and vagrants.
That and seeing people grinding through nose-to tail traffic in supercars is a bit weird.
But hotel and restaurant standards are pretty high, plus there are things to do and there's a bit more history than in other places.
From my perspective the biggest feature is now the casino, its fun to watch sullen Chinese throwing their money away.

Something is wrong in my lower back. It hurts to sit sometimes. Walking and standing is no issue.

First World problem: opium tea and medicinal marijuana are both highly illegal.

Found out I have iron deficient anemia, so now I am on iron pills for the foreseeable future, and get to have a camera run up my colon and down my throat. (hopefully not the same one, or if it is, they go down my throat first)

Dunno if that really qualifies as a fwp. Things like kidney stones and gallbladder stones can cause fatal infections and create pain I've heard was far greater than childbirth. Having went through gallbladder nonsense, I'm not eager to try out my kidneys.

Maybe they have the procedure workflow streamlined for economic reasons and use the same camera for multiple patients.
At the same time.
Human centipede style.

Yeah, that's just gross. Sad fact is though, once they put you under, there is no telling what the hell they are doing to you, is there...

It would be really cool if Amazon offered a one day shipping Prime without the Prime video and other stuff attached. I would even pay a little more for it.

Got an .edu email? You can get the shipping side of prime with none of the video stuff. $50 a year instead of $100, but only lasts 4 years from the moment you start it.

Just found out that the wedding I'm going to for my cousin next week has both of my siblings and all of my favorite cousins at one table.  And then I have to be at the same table as my mom, her boyfriend, my grandparents who will ask me about my shitty job or fixing their computers again, and my similarly-aged cousin that I never talk to because we don't have shit in common.

The dinner shouldn't that long, and should be filled with boring speeches. Eventually everyone will get up to dance and if you don't want to do that you can chat with the family you like who isn't dancing.

Bring the bride and groom a conservative gift certificate.
