In theory, yes.

Next up- making all prison labor protections optional.

I let my email fill up and now my outgoing msg is "if you need to reach me, it's best to text".

Yeah. It's a thing but I'm not sure how much it really helps. I'll do it because if it makes people feel better, it's easy, but I honestly think folks is fine. The person I do this for specificly is cis, has cis kids, has a cis husband, is a member of a community that is largely not only cis, but white and female. To me it comes across as preformitve. But it makes dealing with her, and a few others, easier. If there were a real movement to adopt folx, I'm in but like I say, it seems like our effort could be better spent elsewhere.

Sorry, habbit from writting emails recently to someone that is, enthusiastic, about inclusion.

I'd spend way more time worrying about if I actually wanted to be married to a dude named Addison.

I'm a Star Wars fan. Tell me about it.

I quit smoking pot and no longer enjoy the Spin Doctors. Well, that's half true. I heard them straight one day and decided if that's the kind of thing I like when I'm high, I should quit.

The net brings us together but it also brings the haters and drama. I knew I knew this dude from something.

This is the case. Check out the old Re:Search zines/books. Each is about some wired niche thing and has a bunch of contributions from different people. Folx have always been into strange things, and folx have always found kindred spirits, the internet makes it easier to find, abd troll, them.

Yeah. It's funny, my cousin is a few years younger than me but has no memory of the world pre-net. I told him the story of how we used to have to do things and it blew his mind.

Ex. Cowboy Bebop. Me and a buddy heard a thing on Terry Gross about the soundtrack one day driving home from work. They played a few seconds of Tank! Man, we were hooked instantly. So we changed directions and went to, where? Where do you go? Blockbuster? FYE? Game store? Comicbook store! They'll have it! So we went to every comic shop in the area (we knew them all because we would get MtG cards every payday). A couple had a DVD or two. How many episodes were there? How many seasons? How long would our search take? It was a treasure hunt. Calling game stores, calling small video stores. Finding one DVD at a time but not in order. It was like that for everything. And honestly, I think it gave things a greater value.

I love being able to answer almost any question instantly. When I'm listening to an audiobook, if there's a word I'm not sure of, I can pause, get a definition, and go back to my book without even looking at my screen or touching my phone. But there's deff a sense of flippancy to everything now that wasn't there before. Bad or good, I don't know, it is what it is. But I do miss the hunt for new stuff.

Yeah. I'm not sure it's better this way though.

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)

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.
