Movies are wayyy to damn loud now
- getting oldpango
- This is true ... but I will say that the last one I went to see was Oppenheimer and the sound design during that Trinity test scene was 100% spectacular.Ramanisky2
- Most of Oppenheimer was unbearably loud and I dispute this being about age. Movies didn't sound like this in the past.CyBrainX

... you look at listings for Music Festivals and don't know who the fuck 99% of the bands are.

Birks n socks
I resisted but they are too comfortable..
- Oh, slappy. What have you done?!Continuity
- you didn't wear loud colorful socks with birks in high school? no way that was anomalous to our geographyimbecile
- It’s a slippery slope, started wearing birks to the beach, then it got cold, now I don’t even recognise myself.slappy
- There's still time to find your way back, slappy.Continuity
- But if you swap out the Birks for sandals with velcro straps and still wear socks in them, we can't help you.Continuity
- Why not just go straight to the end of the plank and get some Crocs?formed
- I find a nice pair of slides (i have HOKA’s) and some wool socks does the trick for Canadian Fall.ideaist
- Why does this happen? There are an infinite number of comfortable footwear options that aren't horrible. You're one or two steps from wearing Crocs now.CyBrainX
- I too know the pleasures of Birkwithsocks...usuall... just around the yard. Last year I bought some $4 crocs knockoffs from the dollar store, just for the yard...monNom
- There are some clothing articles that you shouldn't wear, even to paint a garage.CyBrainX

I'm in my 50's...still haven't grown up. Working on a startup for the past couple of years with very little income as a result FFS...I'm too old for this shit! If it doesn't work out, I'm pretty farked.
Good times!

got glasses.
office progressive. need to get used to them.- I've had progressives for 3 years, still can't get used to them. Need to take them off to draw, sew or read my phone.palimpsest
- Got used to my varifocals in 20 minutes. Get your prescription rechecked.comicsans
- I work with glasses, when I need to check something near on paper, I take off them, and voilá!
The only advantage of being myopic ;)OBBTKN - What you sewing pamp?garbage
- Just mending nowadays, Santa never brough me the sewing machine. Started making zipper pouches with my MIL's machine and doing sashiko on them a few years ago.palimpsest
- Nice. I'm embarrassed, but not too proud to admit it took me too long to realize MIL's wasn't a brand. My mom quilts, it was a family thing.garbage
- I have a tattered-ass quilt that's literally from the Civil War era, and it need some work. Think my great great gran made it?garbage
- It's literally a museum piece, and it's currently.. protecting the screen of a spare flatscreen in my closet.garbage
- Eventually I'm going to make a frame for it. My mom went apeshit when she found out I was actually using it.garbage
- Yeah, protecting a screen was a bit too much. I think having it over you bed would have gone down better. But you're making up for it with the frame!palimpsest
- I loved tattered fabric, that's why I'm practicing sashiko. My sewing is still wobbly but my goal is to build a boro jacket from my own tattered clothes.palimpsest

I also work with a bunch of graphic designers, 20-30YO. Their skills range, some are very good. Excellent, even.
Working on some substantial brochures/catalogs with lots of information to convey. Decent budget with high-end finishes, etc. It's a really legit & fun opportunity. I find out NONE of them give 2 shits about grid systems.
I pull out books by Joseph Muller Brockmann, Wim Crouwel etc. for a bit of inspiration/educational time. NO ONE has even heard of them. They go on paging through the books with looks of subtle amusement, then set them down and go on their way designing without ANY fucking grids.
Makes me wonder what the fuck I'm even doing anymore
- you should do the grid system and let them fill stuff in :-)
Did you ever notice that Brockmann published a manual for industry users on how to use grids.uan - it's like a template. layout thinking boiled down to some rules, with solutions for common problems.uan
- Like no standard columns or margins?! WTFmonospaced
- Not only as a designer, also as a consumer, I find grid systems very pleasing. So, I don't understand the young designers.SimonFFM
- grid systems don't let me express my feelings through art thodoesnotexist

I just signed up to Jiu-jitsu,
not for self defense, but to tire myself out enough so I can finally get some god-damn good sleep.
- If you do that in the evenings you'll be waking yourself up.7am ~ 11am is the best time to do exercise if you want to sleep well.shapesalad
- Watch A hubermans podcast episode on sleep.shapesalad

when you realise 1992 was 30 yeas ago.. or when you speak with your colleague at work about something that happened in 1998 and they are like "oh, I wasn't born yet"
