At least we can read.

"Time flies, time crawls You're a prisoner trapped between its claws Life sucks, sometimes You gotta learn to live between the lines"

Pretty much as written. Time marches forward no matter how I feel about it. My best friend died, people still sat in traffic on the way to work. My wife said she wanted a divorce, the mailman still brought me bills. I made the best chilli I've ever tasted and my neighbors cat disappeared. You gotta learn to just accept that life is fleeting and carve out your own space. Find your own joy. Bring your own good time. Because life doesn't owe you anything and moaning about it won't make things better.

I hear you. But it's not about getting the money. The sense of relief that would come with it would be the goal. Imagine just thinking, wow, I can afford all the basic shit now and I'll have extra to have the fun too. Not even a huge pay off, just a few 10s of Ks.

That weeks winnings lotto numbers. It would amount to nothing but I'd be happy forever.

Bruh, it's almost March.

How long till we send troops into Ukraine? I don't mean as allies. Reagan is spinning in his grave. (Don't get me wrong, a grave is where he belongs, but he'd be pretty burned about this)

Ah. Yes, thinking about it like you say it makes way more sense. Thanks.

First letter to the back. Then add ay.

Yeah, and it turns out the guy that cut me off and brake checked me was in the wrong too. But much like that, it only matters if there's consequences.

I'm really more a SFF and Speculative Ficton guy but last year I read Sister, Maiden, Monster by Lucy A. Snyder. It was great. In one word, viceral.

Frankenstein by Mary Shelly is kind of a must read imo. It's credited as the first sci-fi book but is horror in its roots I think.

And Island of Dr. Moreau is pretty scary if you can sort of put yourself in the context. I'd suggest reading The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garca after that to have fun with an old story but told by not a colonizing white dude.

Bullshit. I'm at lunch thankyouverymuch, and I have been for 12 minutes. It's a good thing I didn't see this when I was browsing lemmy 20 minutes ago.

 

Got my Lydia new shoes the other day. No rubbing, minimal tire noise, smooth ride over train tracks and potholes.

Escape From New York? (self.boardgames)
submitted 4 months ago by ZagamTheVile to c/boardgames
 

So a million years ago, back in the 1980's, we used to play Escape on rainy days when we couldn't skate. I went looking for an old copy so I could force my kids to watch the movie and play the game with me when I discovered there's a new version. Does anyone here know if the two versions are similar?

My take on the JRockett 45. It's a Malcolm Young tribute. Now I just have to learn to play like him.

Big Cheese clone. (lemmy.world)
submitted 9 months ago by ZagamTheVile to c/guitarpedals
 

Big Cheese by Lovetone clone. I added a blend knob so it'll be a little more bass friendly. Waterside decal. And a uv led.

 

I discovered Joy Division through an old skate video I had on VHS. I also discovered Jane's Addiction on the same tape. This was before they hit radio with Been Caught Stealing. I can't hear Disorder or Had a Dad without thinking of the other. I also found Tenor Saw through the same tape. Alva Backyard Annihilation for those that are interested.

 

Finally got to try etching. The pattern is the pcb layout of a classic Pi. Bonus point to anyone that can name the typeface, or at least where it came from. Man, I love these big Boss style knobs. I got a 10 pack and I'm almost out already. Next diy project is a Lovepedal Cheese clone with a dry blend add on.

 

I know in my last post I said I was going to do an etching on a Big Muff next, but I didn't have the right photo paper. So I tried doing a print on water slide for my GGG Brassmaster. I can say this is my second favorite fuzz but the build is not for the faint of heart.
