First Turntable

I went with a Technics SL-5300 purchased from someone who restores and services vintage audio nearish to me. Amazing condition, sounds beautiful, very excited.

Replaced our TV with vintage audio

We moved our TV out of our living room to our bedroom upstairs as we wanted to have a screen free family room/playroom for our toddler. We really want to listen music more often and have been interested in vinyl. I did some research and decided to buy from someone who does restoration in my area. Picked out a Technics SL-5300 turntable, Pioneer ES-2000, NAD 523 for CDs and a pair of Pioneer CS-66 speakers. It all sounds and looks so beautiful and I'm super excited to be able to share music and fun adventures hunting for vinyls and CDs with kiddo. I had a Philips AZ-2750 as a teen and have such fond memories of it, hoping to recreate that for him.

Tumble Leaf is Glorifying Climate Change

Tumble Leaf is clearly post climate apocalypse, as evidenced by the fact that they are walking distance to hot sandy beaches, ice caves, snowy mountains, rainforests, hot springs, swamps etc. They are trying to convince kids the post apocalypse world will be all fun and finding cool things, who cares if you're being raised by chickens!

Looking for Premium Tix for week of Aug 10-13

It's our 5th anniversary in August and I want to surprise my partner with tickets in one of the Premium areas for a special date night. Terrace looks cool, but open to options but we definitely want to have seats. Flexible on game, would prefer August 10, 11, 12 or 13 but open to others.

There's something funny about...

Jonathan complaining in exit press that he played the better game and deserved to win.

Aubry's whole narrative was that she complained that she deserved to win her season because she played the better game and then reflected, learned and won 50 after realizing her social game had been terrible on 32. Jonathan lost specifically because his social game on 50 was terrible.

He doesn't really seem capable of that level of self reflection and change though so I don't think we will see him win in 10 years.

I'm 37, diagnosed earlier this year and on medication for 6 weeks. For the first time I can remember I didn't have a meltdown over something I normally would. Extreme emotional dysregulation has always been one of my most challenging symptoms and this is life changing for me after decades. I would often be unable to control my emotions over small things. I would breakdown. I would tell my mom and my partner I don't know why I'm like this, I can't control it.

Yesterday I planned to grill burgers and my partner was supposed to bring the bag of buns from our house to my parents. She forgot them so we had none. As usual my mom said she'd run to the store and get some. In the past this would always set me off, I'd become really upset and shut down and even often say I'm not even going to cook anymore. I started to get irritated but I was able to just take a deep breath and move on. This is huge for me and I just need to celebrate. I still feel weird and shame sharing something like this with friends or other people because I have always felt like I'm an adult I shouldn't react like this. Just knowing all I needed was a proper diagnosis and some help is a game changer.
