I'm currently rejoicing over the fact that I finally solved my issue with the computer speakers playing, along with taking a good rest from my graduation!

Three hours of community radio broadcasting from home, then maybe finish cleaning the caravan, put some washing on while the sun is hitting the solar panels, maybe a trip to bunnings to get some root killer for the sewer, and drop a dead dishwasher to the recycling place.
Business, always business
watched a bunch of shows. finished black mirror. vacuumed the floor and thinking of how to make an analytics newsletter
Trying to figure out how to stain the maple cabinets I built. It's been harder than anticipated... But progress is progress. One step at a time and all that.
Gotta finish planning the D&D session I'm running on Sunday
Going to try to get to the forge and do some blacksmithing
Going to a concert tomorrow night, and then reading and spending some time with my newborn. Should be a good rainy weekend.
Get high. Drink vodka. Watch The Office. Laugh uncontrollably. In no particular order, and all with my amazing wife. That's just tonight tho. Tomorrow we have to clean the house. I'll be high for that too because cleaning sucks.
Convincing myself to get going on a TTRPG I've been wanting to write T_T. Motivation is hard.
If it helps there are some interesting papers on the idea that motivation comes from seeing the results of your own actions, and not before.
So that means you are supposed to feel this lack of motivation, and once you start writing and the feedback loop kicks in, the motivation will come on its own.
Feel free to ignore me if that doesn't help but here's a link to some more information on the idea: https://www.entrepreneur.com/living/dont-wait-for-motivation-do-this-instead/232349
Picked up FF16 so I'll be playing through that, hanging out at the [small] local coffee shop we do every Saturday and celebrating one of the patron's birthday's, and doing a final walkthrough on a house we just closed on. Exciting things!
I want FF16 so bad! Unfortunately the other day someone tried to use my bank info to buy some stuff. The bank caught it, but that means they had to cancel my debit card. So now I have to wait till my new card comes in.
@HipHoboHarold
Aw, bummer. Hopefully you can recover anything they stole and can get it sorted properly though!

I’ve had a very tiring past 3 weeks so I’m taking it easy this weekend. So far today I’ve done my first decent calisthenics workout in a long time, and geeked around some with my Emacs org mode GTD setup.
Our weather has been all over the place, so If it cools off probably a long bike ride with my wife. It it gets hot again then hopefully planting our butts in one of the glacial runoff rivers to stay cool.
Halfway through finishing my basement, running electric tomorrow, then if I finish in time got tickets to a show.
Saturday afternoon where I am. But last night I went out for dinner and drinks with a few friends, tonight I have a 30th birthday party to attend, and tomorrow I'm playing dungeons and dragons
There’s an art festival I’m planning to go to tomorrow. It’s horror, occult, and oddities type of stuff, so it should be fun. Then maybe hanging out with a friend visiting from out of town.
May check out some vinyl bars around me! I'd just read about these recently and am curious to check them out
fucking working ಠ ೧ ಠ
DM'd my 2nd ever Dungeons and Dragons game online with Foundry Friday night, then Saturday is some cleaning and fixing my back porch followed by some beer and Mexican food for dinner, and probably a nighttime Pokemon go walk.
might go to the gym tomorrow, but honestly hoping i don't unless i feel significantly better. past 2.5 weeks have been rough on my mind and body; feeling super scarily depressed and drained and exhausted, had a massive breakdown this morning. just hoping i can relax as much as possible and be gentle with myself. i know some may say the gym is good for mental health and all that, but for me it can be draining, especially if i'm already feeling low. and with my current level of dysregulation, i might feel more socially anxious/paranoid. if i do feel well enough, though, it'll be good to get back on track with that.
if any linux users would like to try and make me feel better - whyyyyyyyyyyy won't debian 12 boot, grub keeps whining about like 14 failed sectors????? but my ssd should be okay, it's only a year old and macos (mid-2012 macbook pro) is running fine on the other partition???????? i keep reinstalling linux and it just does not care, i tried update-grub and it does not caaaarrreeeeeeeeee
Rough times come and rough times go. Sometimes it seems all times are rough and in hindsight, some weren't. Sometimes, everything sucks in hindsight.
Go to the gym every time you are able and congratulate yourself for pulling it off. Don't go when you are not able and congratulate yourself for being good to you. It's not always easy, but if both outcomes can eventually feel like a win, then you get some wins in the list, make sense?
Self-hosting projects! Excited to dig more into docker and portainer. Today was a database, knowledgebase, and dashboard. Tomorrow who the fuck knows but I'm psyched.
Unfortunately I work on the weekends. I got Mon and Tues off. My boyfriend also works the night shift on Thur, Fri, and Sat night.
But tomorrow night I'll probably take my dog for a walk, and when I get back have a beer or two and mod my PS3. Been thinking about it for awhile. Started busting out my PS2 and was thinking about updating it since I modded it awhile ago, then realized I never got around to doing the PS3. Unfortunately I eventually need to get an external hdd for the games, so it's just gonna be the basics of modding it.
Two TTRPG sessions (Dungeons & Dragons in person, Call of Cthulhu online), going swimming at the public pool, working some more on my translations of German folk tales.
Midsummer festivals to celebrate the Solstice have all been scheduled for this weekend in my city :D very excited to go with my family
Got home kat was looking for this cricket that was chirping in my rose bush...didn't find it so will try again tomorrow...
What am I doing? Anything but pooping. But seriously, apparently I'm going to be eating a lot of protein and minimal fiber...
I'm going to go play DDR!
