I wander around. Firmly against genAI.
I bought myself an accordion at the flea market. I don't know anything about accordions, and the funny thing is, because I'm coming from playing a hurdy gurdy, I thought the fact that it made a continous sound without any keys being pressed meant that it wasn't broken XD

Neighbour gave me a plank of lindenwood they had lying around, and now I am obsessed

I saw Shrek months early, special test viewing. It was 2001, remember, no youtube, flip phones, low bandwith internet, barely any social media, spoilers don't exist. No one had any idea what to expect.
I have to this day never seen an audience laugh so hard and so earnestly, it was such a high.
i watched the first live-action transformers movie at a premiere showing with hundreds of other transformers fans at botcon 2007

s'only reason "on your left" from avengers endgame doesn't win this for me
Got me thinking.. What's the strongest reaction you've seen an audience member have to a scene in a cinema?

During the birthday party scene in SIGNS I saw a whole row of young women literally throw their popcorn in the air like a cartoon.

I'm editing and the website I subscribe to for royalty free music just zonked out and reverted me to a free account. ARGH! I WAS IN THE ZONE! >:(

The mountain gave me its best as it always does. I found a sacred place to rest at for a while.

Um, anyone else having issues logging into their tumblr or even seeing their main?

Sometimes the cheapest hotel is a tacky roadside terror with furniture and fixtures from the 90s. Sometimes, at the same price, it's an early 18th century wattle and daub baroque building.

At the beach yesterday. found a bit of driftwood to whittle. Alas, back inland now, though Kurpie is just as pretty as Kaszuby.

I arrived at the hostel five minutes before check in closed and blamed it on traffic, but the real reason is that I had to make a detour and see some 11th century kurgans.

Chilling on the beach with a book about the harsh life of 16th-18th century peasants feels very decadent. Especially since I have snacks and I'm on a chapter about perpetual malnourishment.

Brel, La Valse a Mille Temps. I got it right exactly once after several hours of practice on a road trip, and lost it immediately after.
Opera. I just think it would be cool to just bust out some Pavarotti in between Chappel Roan and The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
okay what’s everyone’s most delusionally aspirational karaoke selection

like if you knew you could not fail, what’s the biggest / weirdest swing you would take

mine might be Nick Cave’s “Red Right Hand”

Is there some sort of Australian special day going on? The embassy a few blocks over is having a firework party.

Four different jobs paid me all in the same day so I am struggling against the urge to buy myself something fancy. That's gas and food money.

Getting out my atlas and duffel bag and opening my travel drawer where the camping accessories are stashed, today is finally Plan The Summer Workcation Road Trip Day.

Left engine mount is bad and the back shocks leaked out, mechanic will fix it by tomorrow. I wish my dad had been a car guy, I would have loved to learn how to repair a car. I can change my bulbs and put the spare on and that's about it.
Oh, sure, car, sure, start making a rattling noise three days before I have to take a work trip. You JUST had a checkup, that better be the loose fender and nothing more.
