    Just beat Bayle in the Elden Ring DLC. I’ve found a lot of the boss fights since Dark Souls 3 felt like cheap and tedious slogs, but I really liked this one.

    The NPC quest line leading up to the fight was great too, as well as seeing where you fight him before the showdown.

    I think Elden Ring has the best NPC questlines since the first Dark Souls and the DLC just keeps that going

    Went to the zoo with the kids for the dinos alive event. The zoo is much better with kids than I expected. They could run around safely to get them out of the pram and there’s a great kid’s room near the entry.

    My boy is still a bit scared of dinosaurs when they move and make noise but they still had a good time overall

    Winston (neighbours’ dog) has found a new way to jump the fence:

    Just jumps over, barks at trees, the air, rolls around then goes home.

    Winston is a good boi.

    Heading down the bellarine today with the heavy af studio subwoofer that I put through a wall getting it down stairs the other day. Finally will be reunited with the main speakers.

    Let’s see if I can put it through 2 walls. I like my chances.

          Behringer is pretty good, but I know what you mean about the snobiness.

          I’ve got a few stomp boxes of theirs and they’re pretty good sounding.

          I wouldn’t mind a BCF but they’re hard to find these days.

          Those Opals look amazing!

            I’m still surprised the motors on these BCFs still work.

            It’s hilarious when you’ve aggressively automated and assigned a bunch of stuff and the faders move like they’re possessed.

            Opals are probably one of better decisions I’ve made. There are probably better more honest sounding ones these days for the same $ or less, but they’re still going strong after 14-ish yrs.

    The subwoofer is in! Didn’t damage anything (more).

    I wasn’t able to really use it back home because it was too much.

    Forgot how loud it was. Which brings us to yet another rave choooon

    Bit of a Balancing Act moving it around so happy that’s over. All I need to do now is sand and paint the filled bit of wall I fucked and all will be okay.

      Hang a picture over it. Shit plaster looks way better behind a picture.

    My head is still in pain after having coffee and food and lots of water. Have attempted the Nurofen. Going out for dinner and hope this clears soon.

    … Actually I can think of one reason why my headache didn’t improve, I had to navigate Sydney Rd traffic and find parking. That can go get absolutely fucked

    I really curse this radial transport network that requires me to go into town to head out again, because I would’ve gladly gone on a tram if it didn’t take over an hour in total each way

    I got a pamphlet thingy from my local councillor where she’s whinging about proposed high density housing. She included a link to a (state) government consultation page on it. But their consultation and public opinion process closed 3 months ago. This pamphlet was most certainly not in there on Wednesday, so it can’t be an old one.

    Also, what’s with the photos ministers and councillors put on their propaganda/advertising material? Why do they always look like robots trying to be humans? I don’t think anytime I’ve ever received their photos they actually looked like normal people. Reminds me of zuckerburg. It’s uncanny.

    The last bit of healing from the breakup is self-forgiveness. The relationship ended and he blocked me everywhere because I sent him a message that was childish and kind of rude l. In hindsight, I was anxiously attached and codependent, and even the tiniest bit of distance sent me on a worry frenzy. That was combined with things in the relationship that made me feel like he didn’t care, like telling me I should be sending good quality memes when I sent him virtual flowers lol.

    I obviously know better now and vow to never act batshit crazy again, but the embarrassment and shame just cause me to spiral a bit when I’m feeling down. I just dwell on shit a bit too much.

      These feelings will eventually diminish down into a light cringe moment. We all have acted ridiculous at times, and I can vouch I have acted batshit insane before. And the memories hurt because, we’re not really like that, and it triggers other memories and feelings and events. But it will eventually become another faded memory to make you cringe in the night and giggle about to friends at brunch.

      We get silly and serious and we fall in and out of love, fickle and fully invested. We send memes and lovey gifs, we profess our love and ask for reciprocation. We’re just human, and we’ve been batshit crazy since we were messing around the fertile crescent. Cringe, but take solace in the knowledge that you are an amazing human doing amazing things. Put to rest any feelings of shame. You are beautiful and are doing great!

      I got home a bit late and am hoping I can get even just 30 minutes of my towels drying outside. Not much chance of doing it next week so today was my best shot, it’s probably the one thing it would be nice to have a dryer for.

    Did a big clean out of shed and garage. Lots of old stuff stored there that is ready for rubbish. Bin full so some will have to wait for next week. Feels very satisfying. I’m feeling dusty and cold so time for a shower and then relax in front of tv with show or movie.
