Not this weekend but next weekend (but I wanna talk about it now lol) I'm going to see my favourite tenor who I have a MASSIVE crush on sing in an opera in Toronto. I am beyond excited because he's such a great singer and also makes my panties magically fly off. I just love him.

I still have laryngitis and am still fucking off from work for a couple more weeks and it feels great to do that. I talked to my therapist last night and we agreed that some of this comes from burnout from my job, which is a whole other story, and that I need some downtime and deserve it. Even if everything is going to hell in my absence, that is my manager's problem and not mine. I have to take care of me first.

My very sweet friend found the body of a suicide victim in the woods while hiking yesterday which is just horrifying. He's kind of in a gullible place in his life where he's obsessed with religion and I think this is a bad thing to happen to him in this moment in his life. I am already ever so gently trying to dissuade him from believing in disinformation campaigns in general as the kind and loving friend I wish to be.

Oh nice, you are on a new Swiss instance! Do you guys have a local Schweiz community?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Feddit.ch shut down about 1.5 months ago and i wanted to stay on a .ch domain and found this instance. Since all or most switzerland communities were in the feddit instance, they are gone now an i can‘t seem to find a replacement that is at least somewhat active.

I hope to do some work on my personal website this weekend. It's also supposed to be rainy and gross where I live, which will mean cozy Stardew Valley with the wife.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Show us the website! (If you feel comfortable, ofc)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

My personal website is still in the works, but I'll show you my dumb little one-off, that I'm also currently re-writing. It's super primitive and my literal first website, I'm still very new to this stuff 😅

Thank you for the kind words 😊

The same thing I do every weekend Pinky: contemplate whether to contact my father for the first time in over 20 years. Or my half brother that I have never spoken to.

Lego store for May the 4th.

Weeding the volunteer moss garden that started in my front walkway along with tending the other gardens in the yard.

Finish using the pallet of limestone to line gardens.

Continue working on getting the pool ready for the kids to swim as soon as it's warm/they're brave enough.

Building some of the aforementioned Lego sets.

Helldivers 2 and Manor Lords on Steam.

which lego sets are you planning on getting?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago
  • Boarding the Tantive IV diorama
  • Mos Espa Podrace diorama -Micro scale Tantive IV, which along with the new diorama and the minifig scale Tantive IV, will make an awesome display with all 3 together.
  • UCS Droideka
  • Micro scale Invisible hand

I might swap some older sets for the new ones if any I want might be getting retired soon.

Happy birthday (in advance?)

Working, sleeping, throwing people

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

I have a kid’s birthday party to attend. Beyond that, I’m hoping to find a little time to tidy up the house and relax a bit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago
