A photo of a white femme-ish non-binary person with dyed black hair and wearing all black clothing, in the middle of playing a bass guitar.

First bass lesson with the seventeen year-old!

A photo of a field with sheep grazing in it, and behind them are two three-storey unit blocks, and beyond that in the distance a bunch of regular suburban houses.

We're off to Parramatta for Mamak with @rfernandez, and it's SUCH a glorious day that we walked to the train station. Nice to see the sheep still around, for the moment at least.

A photo of a round table with Magic the Gathering cards all over it (it's a four-player game).

A photo of a bowl of chilli con carne with rice, veggies, and a big dollop of sour cream.

I'm in the office today for ALL OF THE THINGS. First up, playing Magic the Gathering at lunch with the usual pre-COVID crew. 😁 They changed caterers for the hot food a few months ago and man, they're doing a bang-up job. Day was chilli con carne and it was delicious.

A photo of several different pieces of gothic-looking yet somewhat futuristic ruins of varying sizes sitting on my painting table.

Right, that's the terrain assembled and undercoated! Next stop, attempting to replicate @[email protected]'s method with minimal effort via the magic of drybrushing.

A photo of an electric guitar with a white body, black pick guard, and a maple fretboard and headstock. It's VERY handsome.

A photo of an electronic drum kit sitting in a corner, with a mesh snare and three mesh tom pads on it, and three black cymbals. Two of the cymbals are noticeably larger (and also cleaner) than the third one, and they're the new ones.

New gear day! 🎉 A Fender Player II Stratocaster, and upgraded cymbals for my drum kit (CY-16RT ride cymbal and CY-14CT crash cymbal, both Roland). Mannys only had one of the crash cymbals in stock so I'm still waiting on the second to arrive, as well as a Boss ME-90B bass guitar multi-effects pedal. I haven't had a chance to play with the Strat yet, but MAN the new cymbals are nice, they have a far better feel to them than the stock ones, and the new ride cymbal has three trigger zones on it, so you get the bell sound in the very middle too. I'm currently trying to see if I can fit another cymbal mount on there to use with the last input on my drum module so I can make use of one of the now-spare CY-8 cymbals as a third crash... 🤔

A photo taken from my seat looking down the length of the plane, we've only just started boarding so there aren't many people on it yet.

We are on a plane! Off to Perth to see @burgerdrome and some other non-fedi friends.

A screenshot of my Cyberpunk 2077 character. She's a Black woman with purple hair pulled up behind her head and the sides shaved, a bunch of piercings, and she's standing there with her arms crossed and a slight smirk on her face. In the background is an empty street curving away to the left.

Having forgotten about Cyberpunk 2077, and also having forgotten how to play it, I decided to start a new character and maybe actually play more than a couple of hours this time. Unfortunately the lack of being able to use a Southpaw control scheme means I'm absolutely ATROCIOUS at aiming at anything, so I'm playing on easy difficulty and will be primarily leaning on not actually shooting at stuff for this playthrough, hopefully it's not too frustrating — I have an extremely low tolerance for frustration at video games these days. (I can swap the control sticks around at the Xbox controller level, but that fucks things up in a bunch of other ways like navigating through menus, so I'm going to just have to see how it goes. For the love of $DEITY, game devs, JUST LET ME REMAP CONTROLS!)

A photo looking down Sydney's George St, with tram tracks in the middle, some trees just starting to come back into their greenery, tall buildings, and people walking around with umbrellas. The sky is grey and it's actively raining.

I'm in the city today for a doctor's appointment and also post-work jam session, and jesus CHRIST is it miserable.

A screenshot of the iOS Alarms app with an alarm set for 4:50am.

@yayKM's mum is visiting for two weeks and her plane gets in at arse o'clock tomorrow morning, so our alarms are set so we can go pick her up from the airport. 😫 This is going to be a shock.
