Low Poly Animal

Boy got me a (thank u i love you) used 2021 Macbook Pro (M1 Pro) so I can escape Windows, convert my desktop to Linux while still having a computer that can run Ableton, and host my external audio gear properly. This is such a fancy device. Wow! I'm not used to such luxury.

Fuck the UCP btw.

Today’s Depression Score is pretty high. gosh dang.

Got a bone blank and made a new nut for my JM! Did it need a new nut? No. But I figured I should learn how to do nut work, and the crappy plastic nut on the JM was worth upgrading anyway.

Ugh, my boy and I stayed up slightly too late watching 70s-80s game shows and I am super tired this morning but also it was so fun…

I need to learn how to do that love yourself thing people talk about all the time.

Vyvanse really do be like: Sit down to play Rogue Trader at 11am. Look at the clock, 5pm. Oh no.

Making a [GENRE] Song - [Band Not In This Genre, Band You've Never Heard, Band Not In This Genre]

Fun touys. :3c

This lyft driver is playing the most generic boring christian rock music ever possibly written. I don’t even understand why these bands exist outside of worship services because every single song sounds the exact same and the lyrics only vary ever so slightly.

Well, he may be going home for a little bit, but theres good news at least. @snownel.com and I are engaged! Weee! His return will fill me with so many wonderful emotional fuzzies.

My Day Collar has been locked on for over a year now. Just thought that was pretty neat.

I don’t have a thing against chewing noises… unless your mouth is open, smacking lips, heavy breathing, exaggerated noises. Why are so many people incapable of chewing with their mouths closed at work.

A while ago I got one of those guitar foot stands typically used for classical guitar and it is honestly just way more comfortable to use it.

Actually I’m on my phone more than I should be because it is distracting me from my leg pain thanks.

I have an intake assessment for bottom surgery on Tuesday. This is exciting.

I've been using a desktop-mounted mic arm I got from IKEA for the last 3 years and the mount just falls into parts at least once at month and I have to find all the parts and reassemble it. So I just said fuck it and got a nicer/overbuilt mic arm and yeah, this this worth it.

My obsession for KGLW is enhancing with their new IDM synth track.

My favourite experience of modern mobile browsing is when I’m reading an article and have to fight the page constantly jittering up and down as ads load and fill the page. I love having to scroll constantly just to look at a single line of text. I don’t actually. Modern websites are just terrible.

I got a tattoo. It is my first. Wow! Lynx skull.

Found this MiJ early 1980s Epiphone 12-string at a pawn shop for $50. It was pretty bad-off. Caked in grime and covered in cracks in various places. Took it home, cleaned it, repaired it, did a setup, and it’s playing pretty decent now! Pretty proud that I could get it to this point.

Some lynx photos I took that I am quite proud of.

New guy at work. He's very obviously queer. I notice he goes by a different name on the posted schedule than the name he goes by with other coworkers. So I ask him which of those he prefers, he tells me, thanks me for even asking, and he seemed happy someone cared. It doesn't take a whole lot.

Today is my compensation meeting at work. They want to keep me. I want to stay. But the warehouse moving 2 hours away necessitates a pay raise so I can afford to move closer. I’m asking for a 12K raise and not taking less than 10K. So let’s see.

Point and laugh at a man who thinks we should be constantly exposed to people who make it abundantly clear they want us dead.

AI isn’t being adopted by most people and we -still- need this many data centres? Imagine how many we’d need if people -did- adopt it. My point being; we can’t adopt it.

Am I the only person that thinks CAGED is basically useless and actually learning how scales are constructed is infinitely more useful.

I don't really have any friends that know anything about music stuff, I mostly mean the making music and not the listening music. So I end up spending a lot of time at the instrument store talking to a handful of the workers about all my music nerd stuff when I go there. Depressing? Yeah.

Sinful take: I like the Tomodachi formula more than the Animal Crossing formula.

One of the many sucky things about these 13-day-straight work weeks is me waking up on a Sat/Sun seeing my guitar on its stand as I leave knowing I could be playing that instead of working.

Saw an article asking whether Fender or Gibson headstocks are better and the spice is Gibson headstocks are terrible. Ugly, and poor function. Break easily, bad string angles at the nut. There’s a reason most headstocks mimic Fender.

I think one major draw for me to (analogue) synthesizers, guitars, traditional amps, etc, is they’re unbound by toxic tech culture. Modellers are cool but you’re gonna get trapped in ecosystems.

Hey FA users. Can you stop tagging maw shots as vore? I have vore blacklisted but I still like maw shots. Thank you.

Went to Korean BBQ for birthday dinner and saw one of my favorite things in the world: inexplicable signage

INFERNO. 18 TRACKS. 70 MINUTES. 2xLP, CD, DIGITAL. 29 MAY 2026. boardsofcanada.com

Well I weighed myself for the first time in a long time yesterday. I have lost about 10lb since I started vyvanse. So I’m back on getting my calories up with mass gainer shakes. Wee.

Reading guitar/bass tabs of songs reminds me constantly that I do not in fact need to make hyper complicated music in order to make good music but I cant help but feel anything simple is not enough. I really need to have music friends who I can work with / bounce off of to get me in a groove.

I keep getting ads for the new astrology feature of Tinder. First, I don’t use dating apps. Why am I getting these. I love my boy. Second, they spent a lot of money on an ad campaign for a feature not a lot of people will care about.

I did that meme.

In my journey of cutting caffeine, I swapped my coffee pods I bring to work to decaf and I drink just as much coffee. Bitches never believe when someone says they just like coffee, and it’s not just the caffeine.

I’ve been wondering if my chronic leg pain is RLS so I’ve been following all of the recommendations to aid in it and it does help a bit. Sadly that means I need to heavily cut down caffeine and all of the drinks I like to drink and relax with have caffeine.
