Replaced the chairs that were holding the monitors up in the studio with a few hundred kgs of limestone lol.
I really hope the MDF it’s on holds.
Unintentionally the light above seems to hit it quite nicely.

Friends of ours are going away for 10 days. It took a lot of convincing from his partner to allow YL to look after their tiny old delicate dog. Tittles has an extensive routine. Tittles is their baby. PLEASE DON’T LET TITTLES DIE ON YL’S WATCH.
*Tittles is not her real name.
**Also means 10 days of partying plus YL has a 2 week job following. I love part time daughter.

In a world of One Uppers and Talk Overers, thank you for this being a safe to share my weird stories. Sorry if I don’t talk too much IRL, it’s conditioning. May we all have an excellent Friday and a bangin’ weekend!!

Wrestling with 150 32kg+ rolls of fabric today have resulted in a long, long shower and snacky plate for dinner. Cocktail onions are so underrated!!

Do ya think we could use something like /c/tellhimhesdreamin or /c/dalesbargains where we can post good deals that aren’t for us? Anyone near Carrum need a food processor? There’s a Magimix (same model as mine) for $65 on marketplace. Today’s equivalent model - the 5200 - is $1100.

But how much are the jousting sticks?
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Love the idea!! Everyone’s looking for a bargain in this day!

I think I made a new friend through my retail course :3 she’s lovely
We both found we’re both queer, and she asked if she could come over to charge her phone. But we ended up just having some beers and chatting about retro games lol.
She left her fam in nsw due to them being transphobic, and her and her partner seem to have found it a tad hard to find nice, safe friends. I’m chuffed she saw me as safe :3 young trans women have it so hard 😭 she’s so sweet and cool and goth 😍 she didn’t judge at all that my place is a total bomb looool
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Huzzah for new friends!! And you are awesome, so glad she recognised that!

Went to a networking event tonight. Was pretty casual and fun. Spoke to a bunch of recent graduates who are just massively struggling to find work though. And smart, funny people … it’s feeling a tad recessiony out there. I am so glad I’m not at that job hunting stage right now.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Part of the reason I’m stepping into the role I am at work is because I fear it’s crazy tough out there job hunting and this is just a kind of side step for me. The easy option.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I remember it was hard being a graduate looking for work back in my day too. Employers only want people with experience so they don’t have to invest in providing training, and it’s getting worse. Where do the next batch of people with experience come from if no one is hiring graduates? I also wonder if AI has something to do with it. With lower level type office jobs being absorbed into AI activities, therefore less and less entry level positions.

fell asleep after dinner , up now
Pilk@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I will be hopping on the Sleeping Duck train as of this weekend. Choo choo!
Pilk@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Also a friend has left me a bunch of toiletries (long story) and encouraged me to use them. I am scented today with Fleur de Peau and it is absolutely exquisite.

Listening to music by opening VLC, going “Add Directory”, and choosing a bunch of albums to queue up. There might be better ways but this is what I’m used to and nothing beats it.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I used to use VLC to make my minidiscs
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 week ago
It can do it all. I was even using it to convert videos recently when I was having compatibility issues with video editors. It wasn’t perfectly consistent though
mertn22@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Check out Navidrome (server) and Feishin (client). It remembers how many times you have played things and you can also rate the tracks or favorite them then later just play favorites or let it auto DJ. Supports playlists too. Between them they find cover art so you can pick by album cover rather than rummaging about for file names in weirdly named folders. They also find the lyrics and display to help you singalong. VLC is great though for consuming media in odd formats - it will play anything.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I’ll look into it. VLC is very straighforward and it’s more force of habit. I want to go back to listening to the actual music files I have so anything that makes that easier is appreciated.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 week ago
vlc is the best , luv it still , I used it to play very old dvds and cds
and I have sent the guy payment!
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 week ago
The classic adage that “If VLC can’t open it, you’re screwed” still holds true. I haven’t sent them any money but I wonder if they have a marketing team I could become part of, I’d love to help get the word out more
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Fuck you shoulder. I don’t want to go to the gym tonight.
Yet here I am.
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I have spent the entire day under the impression it was Friday. Er…
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 week ago
you have a free extra day! 😊

Saw a Lamy fountain pen is on sale. Are fountain pens worth it for left-handers with bad handwriting?
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Not sure but you can get left-handed nibs …com.au/…/lamy-fountain-pen-nib-left-hand. I love my lamy pen
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I already get ink on my fingers from writing, I was wondering if a fountain pen would be worse. I didn’t even know left handed nibs would be a thing, shows how little I know about fountain pens
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 week ago
You can potentially train a straight nib to be left handed if you never share it. Applies to boring old biros too. A ‘calligraphy’ nib you will need to get a directional one.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Martin Tyler’s just makes it. I always wished him and Les Murray were in the same box and not on different networks.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Well deserved after all the attacking play, but goddamnit
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 week ago
My thoughts exactly
