Dear #fediverse friends, please help me make another completely insignificant choice.

My corded drill died so I'm finally allowed to buy a new cordless one. 🥳 Problem is that I found 3 identical drills:

1. Bosch: https://www.gamma.nl/assortiment/bosch-18v-accuboormachine-universaldrill-systeembox-met-241-accessoires-incl-2-accu-s-1-5ah-lader/p/B162059
2. Makita: https://www.gamma.nl/assortiment/makita-18v-accuboormachine-df488daex1-70-delige-accessoireset/p/B185462
   3: Black&Decker: https://www.gamma.nl/assortiment/black-decker-accuklopboormachine-bdchd18s2ka-qw-18v-104-delige-boren-en-bitset/p/B139587

Please help or I'll just sit in front of my screen and not get anything done today 💀 #choiceparalysis #halp #diy

"Nah I'm not buying Ikea, I'm sure I can make something custom for much cheaper."

"...maybe I should buy a €300 table saw.." 💸💸 #diy #woodworking

Goodmorning lovely #fediverse friends. After having had my morning coffee and a few client calls I finally have time to say 2 things about last nights discussion on multilingualism:

1. why I personally don't see an issue with an English speaking server, but understand why it's important for others
2. more importantly, that this discussion highlights the need for a community governance initiative

I'm typing this out while at work so toots might take a while.

On today's episode of ✨️ Gina's Unnecessary #DIY Projects ✨️ We're building a kitchen island from wood scraps! Yaaay.

I need to get rid of these old boards and tiles in my shed, and my friend needs a kitchen island. Win win, right? 🔥

Current status: after some advanced maths I realized I don't have enough wood, so now the challenge is to find beams for the legs that look sort of similar to the rest of the wood. Aka "such a fun and cheap project wait how did this still cost me €100?" 💸💸💸

The table top (still had to be cut to size here)
The inspo ✨️
The kitchen that will be blessed by this beautiful island

Sigh.. our latest challenge in building a cabinet is buying a table saw. Recommendations are appreciated! 💸💸

🇫🇷 Frenchies of the #fediverse, quick question!! 🇫🇷

What is up with the region of Languedoc-Roussillon and why do I see entire wine estates for the price of a parking spot in Amsterdam for sale?!

It's been 3 weeks in #TheNetherlands, so for mental health reasons I'm flying to #Madrid next week. 🥳

Now dear #fediverse friends, after Madrid what should the next destination be? 🚄🚢✈️

Ugh I have a very intense work deadline today and I kept on waiting for the 'right moment' and 'nooo I first have to do xyz before I start otherwise it won't work' knowing full well I just need to force myself to do SOMETHING and after 8 hrs of staring at my laptop like a hypnotized potato and googling spanish villas I'll now have to work until the early morning to get this stuff done.

Anyone else suffer from dumb brain syndrome?

Literally all my issues would be solved if I could find a remote job.

Not gonna lie, this might be the ugliest thing I've ever built 😭#DIY #DIYgonewrong

Had a chance to sneak into my friends house today to put the kitchen island together and tile the top. The whole time I was like "trust the process" but yall THE PROCESS IS ALMOST DONE AND IT'S STILL UGLY 😭😭

Uuugh
It's so big and bulky 😭 I thought it would match the other wood tones in his house but it doesn't 😢
