I hope that one day someone slams their car door too hard and it falls off then word gets around and everyone stops doing it.

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

if I slam my car door too hard it'll either fix the car, or the engine will explode. Probably more likely the latter.

Today was a rest day from exercises but I ended up doing some anyway because I wanted to. Especially after a weekend of donuts and ribs.. I think I needed it! Started sorting out my herbs and spices but haven't finished, as I'm dithering about which ones I'll put in the new storage carousel thingy and which ones I'll put in other jars. The Minipeelers have been missing me today I think, and were eager to help with my laundry and meal related tasks. They're learning fast and growing faster!

The biggest advantage of ADHD is that if I wait long enough before rewatching a series, it's like watching a whole new series again. I'm watching Charmed and it's like watching a whole new series again, obviously I remember significant parts, but sometimes I can't place them and I feel the emotions all over again.

I have this Dangerfield pinafore that I love to wear, but for some reason the zipper sucks. It's not that like there isn't elastic because there is, and it's not like the zipper is broken. It's just super happy to unzip itself for some reason and I don't know what to do with it? Like the teeth aren't broken, the zip isn't broken. I'm just so confused lmfao

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Make sure the zip handle is facing down flat, that is supposed to stop it unzipping.

Also I wish a very merry anal prolapse upon all NAS manufacturers who do a firmware change so fucking fundamental we not only need to completely rewrite our docker images, but also the goddamn documentation for basic setup.

This probably won’t mean much to most people but I’ve been inspired to continue with a game called 23 Sentinels: Aegis Rim a sci fi story with a unique storytelling technique from famed Vanillaware, known for their gorgeous artwork and 2d animation and sprites in games.

All this was inspired from a recent announcement of their new game called Unicorn Overlord and it looks absolutely beautiful with how animated and detailed their artwork and animation that was showcased.
