if art should be thought provoking, this piece is a success. Most of the thoughts it's provoking are visceral and negative this is horrifying artgallery.wa.gov.au/whats-on/exh...

It's supposed to be built with a normal promicro but this one has pi nanos, which meant I couldn't flash my custom firmware 🫠 I've spent more than the cost of the keyboard on tools like a solder sucker (yeah, sunk costs) and I still can't get the nano off. This is so frustrating on my "vacation"

I bought a keyboard that's the same as mine to have one to leave at the office and reduce the amount I have to carry (especially since I have to go in every day for a week soon) I found out that the guy I bought it from built it in a nonstandard way that I can't use and have been trying to fix it 🫠

Pros of meeting someone in front of a pay phone booth: it's not crowded because nobody uses it, it's easy to spot Cons: some people don't know what a pay phone is or looks like

A big crowd just got on the train and a non-Japanese woman sat next to me. The crowd reminded me that I forgot to put on my mask (which I did) but now I'm anxious that this woman thinks I did it because of her 😂🫠

I absolutely don't need a mini fridge in my upstairs living room/dog room/office, but knowing summer is coming makes me really want one for cold water or ice 😅

Every (rare) time I need a solder sucker and only have my plain one, I wish I'd bought an electric one, but after the need passes I convince myself it's not worth having an electric one 😂

I made a silent puppet film about Godzilla vs. Paul Bunyan. (thank you to @iamchubbybunny.bsky.social for Japanese translations and @okaywolf.ink for clanky piano!!)

I'm still mildly annoyed about this, I wanted a fun word game

So tired lately; I can't wait for Golden Week. I made two lunch plans and I think that's my limit

I finally succumbed and grabbed Two Words, then was disappointed to see that the only way to get rid of the obnoxious ads was a *subscription*

I'm watching The Imagineering Story and some of the subtitles, especially on episode five, are SO bad -- eggcorns and misplaced apostrophes galore. This is really sad to see in what should be a flagship documentary. It feels like they had an AI tool make subtitles and didn't bother proofing it. 😬🫠

Just saw a reel on IG with someone spending $12 on and going wild praising an imported block of standard Japanese butter that costs about $3 here... someone's making a killing off the love of "exotic" imports

There's a certain book buried on my shelf that annoys me every time I see it; it's inscribed, but that author is now persona non grata to me and the happy memory is now shadowed; I can never quite bring myself to throw out a book, so it just sits there buried on its side

Just watched someone house a plate of spaghetti, three baconators, and two chicken sandwiches in something like ten minutes 😮

There is a man on this train who looks absolutely terrified; he's sitting but is also clenching the bag rack over his head with both hands 😬

@tvaziri.com one of my favorite details in AotC is when Grievous faces Obi-Wan and ignites his four lightsabers; the force of each ignition pushes the corresponding hand down a bit! Do you know who did that?

@davidleavitt.bsky.social I'm not sure why or if anyone else has told you, but apparently bsky moderation (@moderation.bsky.app) has labeled your account as spam, so everything is being hidden 🫠

I was looking for a Taskmaster clip I wanted to share and just realized how good Taskmaster's crew is at getting B-roll -- I never fully appreciated it til now
