Israeli occupation has arrested all the journalists and started storming the al-Shifa hospital 😬

Goblin didn’t eat his whole midnight snack.

Have some morning tea 😺 a wedge of maple brownie

I promised my daughter I'd help her with with her art project which is lino cutting and printing. I have a piece of lino 2" by 3 1/2" (double sided) that I need to engrave and I have one shot at it. I do not have the tools for this. I need a huge coffee. I have a headache already. Any tips would be welcome.

Good luck, and for goodness’ sake be careful using any Stanley knife on it.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Thanks. I'm pretty good with a Stanley knife.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

This probably also goes without saying but I remember from my old art class you also use a greylead pencil and to make an outline or lines of what you're going to cut out of the lino with whatever tool you're going to use.

How do you reduce the vibration intensity on an iPhone? I feel the vibration is too strong and anxiety inducing...

Thanks mate. I tried setting it to 0 to compare but it doesn't seem to be working 😒

I just finished watching Last Stop Larrimah. If ever there was a bunch of ragtag misfits, it would be the residents of Larrimah. Jfc.

They all hate each other, but no-ones seems want to to leave

Cake is in oven. Estimated cooking finish time 1620hrs. The oven won't let me put in a time longer than 2 hours. Even technology has a short attention span these days.

Edit: Cake is now out of the oven, has been brushed with brandy and is cooling down under a foil cover. Next step involves more brandy and a thorough wrapping before putting it away to mature. A good rich fruit cake is a preserve, not a dessert. I will probably start eating this one in the latter half of next year.

I just attempted to book a cab from near one end of the CBD to the other and was quoted near $50 due to peak time.

You can bet I cancelled that.

bloody hell filament sellers are taking the piss. Here's hoping the ebay mob I found just around the corner have decent stuff.
