All I really do is power surges. My profession is madness no matter how many drugs claim to divert my sensibilities on the packaging. I'm one of those people who don't mind whole office blocks screaming at us past their water coolers.

Well, I never use a heater, don't have air con, use solar lighting, use gas or wood fire for cooking, hardly watch TV, charge devices on solar, turn off Wifi when not used...
Ordered a new fridge, will see if that makes a difference.
I have a 40 year old freezer, but the motor hardly runs.
Electric hot water, but that uses only $60.
Not sure where I'm using it.

they graduate highschool, leave state and anne changes her name again to astra taylor.

Ours is because of the huge cost of disasters, they tell us.
And it's not like we can switch companies, cos there is no other.


This months bill was $530

8O Lordy, lordy!
Mine was $400, but got an $80 rebate.


Yeah and that was only one person using a heater. However we are now having a heat pump installed next month which apparently costs a max of $100 a month if left on for 24/7

So yeah, $530 a month plus $100 a month for firewood for top floor lounge, plus $100 for internet +++++
So am rather screwed at the moment and am now having to cover my room plus two other rooms for rent on top as finding new flatmates this time of year is a nightmare... Could own a million dollar surf break property for the rent im paying here in this expensive tent at the moment!


I work with too many immaterial facts to use hard currency.

Semi-off-topic: I read Anne Frank's diary like 100 times from when I was 9 to when I was 14. Loved it; could relate to the youthful problems she had. This was before my autism diagnosis when I still felt kinda normal.

I haven't read her diaries yet but what i do know of her saddens me...

Sorry to hear you have had a rough time being on the spectrum! Quite a common occurrence unfortunately!

I just felt so stigmatized by my label because people thought I was/did/say/thought/felt or wasn't/didn't do/didn't say/didn't think/didn't feel certain things-- just because I was labeled as on the spectrum. Cummon everybody, tell your stories now! Show me your hands, lift them up to the skies, if you feel or felt STIGMATIZED!! !

Honestly it's a good read. Very collected style. Way more sad from the outside.

It shows the nonexistent logic in stigmatic belief without removing it from anyone.
