I need to find a new band. I'm writing all this music and I really want to perform it.

Like live? I'd definitely go to listen to that.
do every part yourself!!
Mogwai is playing tonight, loudest and best concert I'd been to in the past. Take ear plugs.
I'm honestly surprised Navalny stayed alive for as long as he did.
he was waiting until the right time, ie, when Trump and the GOP had to be scared into submission again
Mostly pain free now, just so very tired still. Still hurts a bit to walk.
Reading testimonials from sciatica sufferers I am surprised most are really young.
maybe all the old people have already had spine operations. π₯Ί
Watching a video on the history of floppy disks and some comment says kids would probably be asking "why is this man pulling out weird DVDs from a 3D-printed Save icon"
In ten years time even that wouldn't make sense any more...
I was there 3000 years ago.
When we used cassette tapes
reel to reel tapes.
punch cards
I don't think anyone who used punch cards professionally is still working. we had to do a cobol assignment in the early 90's with cards, and even then they were ancient history. I doubt anyone was still using cards after about the mid-80's.
Do not recommend. But they really do give you an appreciation for a keyboard and monitor. Kids these days honestly take them for granted.

Dude! That's insane. I gather you aren't within the metro area?
Up in the Dandenongs, with Puffing Billy, which hasnβt been running either.
Jesus Christ that must suck. Sorry you're having such a shit time dude.
That's tough. Although at this point I'd be hoping it stays off until after midnight so you can get your $1920.
Fingers crossed for you that it won't be too much longer.
I can't help thinking you should be paid a daily rate.
Thanks RustyRaven. A friend has lent me a generator so I can get some work done during the day. And grab a hot shower. The things we take for grantedβ¦until they are taken away.
Back down the bellarine. excellent swim.
water is warm as it gets. Don't even have to get used to it.
Now it is time for a shitty mcains supreme pizza.
Why do people get on trains as slowly as possible? Fucks sake.
It is very important to step over the gap slowly and deliberately to make sure you don't accidentally stumble and get trapped between the train and platform. Once you have ascertained you are safely aboard it is then necessary to survey all available seating and standing options in order to select the most advantageous position. It is only once the selection has been made and the most direct route to that location has been calculated that it is appropriate to move further into the carriage.
Lol I can do all that in about 4 seconds. Just sayin π
There is much to be said, for reading in bed. A cat asleep by your feet.
Almost a poem
There is much to be said,
For reading in bed;
A cat asleep by your feet,
The coolness of the sheets.
Like the phloem
Kitty transporting the goods.
Stopping the brood
Sleuthing the feet
No attempt to be discreet
First fully caffeine free day. I am feeling very flat and lethargic. Miss Meow considers this to be a good thing as it leads to more lap time.
@RustyRaven @CEOofmyhouse56 I'm 49 and heavily addicted to caffeine but take a few months break every 12-18 months. My time from decaf to more energized is 5 weeks.
When I have cut out caffeine in the past I've done it with a much longer time tapering down, but this time I'm doing it much quicker and the impact today is quite noticeable. Hopefully tomorrow won't be quite as bad, I feel tired enough to go to bed already.
I learnt how to mirror things from my phone to the tv using Smart view. π yep I'm moving up in this world. There's still buttons I need to learn though.
I'm doing science! Linguine in pumpkin soup with cracked black pepper.
Nothing wrong with that! I do the same thing sometimes with mushroom soup and spaghetti!
I mean, a pumpkin risotto is basically the same thing, no? Just a couple of pieces of roasted pumpkin with it.
This is uncanny. Yesterday I had one the dry-style spicy ramens served in pumpkin soup!! It was actually really good
A couple of chillis in there and π
It did seem like it needed something. Maybe chillis is the answer. Still, not bad!
Hear me out - a squeeze of lime or lemon maybe to cut through the pumpkin?
You've gone crazy. GUYS KITTEN HAS GONE CRAZY.
Yeah nah. No lemon needed
