Milo is growing up. Only 90% of his day is spent on cuddling, and he feels this is not enough
Why is bro giving me the sideeye
He has doubts about future availability of cuddling
Winston (neighbours’ dog) has found a new way to jump the fence:
Just jumps over, barks at trees, the air, rolls around then goes home.
Winston is a good boi.
I have had a very rough week and I appreciate this content.

OK. Let’s see if I sleep another 13 hours. goodnight everyone 🛌
Did you sleep 13 hours? I got 8 hours and 37 minutes, but feel like I need 13 hours
Thankfully only 10. Which is better.
Was so weird yesterday to be up for 4 hours then it’s dark.
Heading down the bellarine today with the heavy af studio subwoofer that I put through a wall getting it down stairs the other day. Finally will be reunited with the main speakers.
Let’s see if I can put it through 2 walls. I like my chances.
What brand if I may ask?
Behringer 2092
https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=0316-AAD
To be paired with event opals.
A lot of people sort of up their nose at behringer, but all the behringer stuff I have (headphone amp, sub and 2 BCF2000’s) all still work fine years later.
Behringer is pretty good, but I know what you mean about the snobiness.
I’ve got a few stomp boxes of theirs and they’re pretty good sounding.
I wouldn’t mind a BCF but they’re hard to find these days.
Those Opals look amazing!
I’m still surprised the motors on these BCFs still work.
It’s hilarious when you’ve aggressively automated and assigned a bunch of stuff and the faders move like they’re possessed.
Opals are probably one of better decisions I’ve made. There are probably better more honest sounding ones these days for the same $ or less, but they’re still going strong after 14-ish yrs.
Dude I have a digidesign 003 console with flying faders and its hilarious when they’re going hard lol
Are you a producer/sound engineer?
digidesign 003
Ooh nice. People still swear by those.
Yea I just make (not very good sounding) DnB / halftime for fun in spare time.
Nice one! If you feel like sharing anything, would love to hear it!
Do you use a DAW or just hardware?
Second weekend in a row of being stuck in bed due to health condition being flared up due to working in the office the day before.
Not happy. The employer changed their wfh arrangements after I’d started work with them ☹️
Looking forward to having money to go out on weekends.
For now, making music and hassling the cat.
Meet me for lunch when you are ready! I know all the lunch places
Can I come too?
Yes you can
Omg yay!
Can I come too but please make it Sundays because on Saturdays I work to support the Food Truck 🥺
Deal!
Check Ur DMs 😮
Watching an Attenborough thing with the p’s tonight.
My old man is a conservative (staunchly votes libs nats he’s a doc, man of science)… was basically about climate / ecological collapse, shit is grim (and it didn’t hit the sides).
"Bottom, you should get the word out, your generation needs to do this’.
Pointed out he’d been voting for cunts bringing coal into parliament…
It. did. not. end. well.
I am just going to leave the room next time a bit more quietly with less colourful language when these issues come up.
I could hear your dad’s statement in that exact Kew grandpa voice. I would also advise quietly leaving next time…
I’ve stopped worrying about climate change, or at least stopped arguing.
When stuff needs to happen for national security reasons the government will force change, and when too much money is lost to disaster payouts insurance companies will force change.
It might not happen soon enough but it will happen.
Smashy smashy render yesterday, smashy smashy concrete today, smashy smashy bank acct at ikea and keg king tomorrow
Keg king Springvale isn’t open Sunday AFAIK.
Well that’s gonna put a potato up the tailpipe
Keg land round the corner might be.
Gratitude thread!
It’s the weekend :)
Yesterday, I took migraine meds at the start of a migraine and they actually worked. It went away. This doesn’t happen often. It may yet return, but I’m taking the win.
Partner and kids get back today. House is clean, and ready for the chaos. Can’t wait.
Grateful for a nice day
Fluffball
And stress relief from finding work
Thankful for coffee. Coffee! It’s so delicious and warm and yummy.
Unexpected sunshine!!!
The existence of hot jam doughnuts.
another beautiful sunny day .🌞
Just 1 errand to run today and that’s it.
Was hoping to put it off to tomorrow, but the store isnt open on Sundays sadly.
Anti-gratitude.
I cannot, for the life of me, wake up early. Missed three morning gym classes this week.
I was so tired I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. Didn’t take my phone out of my pocket, and didn’t turn my lamp off (although it was only on dim). Even though I evidently needed it, my quality of sleep is quite noticeably worse if I don’t turn the light off before sleeping.
Also the other kid left the house in a bit of a state which I haven’t resolved, and I can’t fucking find anything, so I think I need to do housework today
Also also: I ordered a pack of my favourite rice crackers from Amazon last night and I swear they promised me they’d be delivered today, but now it’s saying they’ll be delivered tomorrow :/
I am ungrateful for the cats kicking litter everywhere when I just finished sweeping!
I woke up at 10 today. Still not early enough. Need to get back to 6:30am!
I hear you. That’s my whole week next week.
I am ungrateful for the poor plumbing in this apartment
I am also ungrateful for my pickled beetroot having gone off. Burgers will be lacking 😾
Also I wish Aldi had a website that showed the stuff they sold. Would make it easier.
Okay, the two g&ts from yesterday are hitting differently now… Should’ve hydrated more…
Have one with brunch.
The only way to keep going is keep drinking!
I am actually going out for brunch, though not the bottomless kind. I’m going to try out this Dutch cafe someone recommended in this thread a while back… nursing a lemon and honey at the moment.
💜
👌 gin and tonic is actually more hydrating than water. MythBusters confirmed this one
