What kind of person lights off fireworks at 7:57 am? I'm not even mad, just baffled.

@mcSlibinas @scrottie @jstevenyork Millecento means 1100

mille = 1000 (like millennium)
cento = 100 (like cent)

A friend of my parents gave them a whole box of pieces of glass for doing stained glass, and they don't want it, so I grabbed a few pieces and I am grinding them up in my rock tumbler to try an experiment for ceramics class.

The rock tumbler is pleasantly quiet when full of glass versus when it's full of rocks

A new seafood place called Sole Invictus just opened in town.

The reviews say the flounder can't be beat.

Getting married is romantic, but being married is not, so there should be something like the Renaissance Faire, but for weddings.

Everyone can go and cosplay getting married for half a day. I bet people would enjoy that

@NanoRaptor Trimming things on the wheel is my favorite step because the tool marks you leave (if you choose to leave them) are so pleasant to look at and so nice, tactile-ly once the piece is fired.

Too many interactions online are like:

Me: Wow, hammering all these nails in is such hard work. My arm is really tired.

Reply-person 1: Well, yes, many woods are quite tough. They are difficult to nail into for that reason.

Reply-person 2: I'm sooo sorry you are dealing with this. Just know that there are many of us who are here to support you through this difficult time. Stay strong :(

@phil People are all worrying about AI filling the internet with fake interactions, but so many people on the internet already act the way people fear AI will!

Shopping for memory foam mattress toppers is an exercise in sorting through dozens of products that appear to be almost exactly the same, and each one has reviews saying it's way too hard and uncomfortable right alongside reviews saying it's way too soft and you sink into it too much.

@ducksauz The problem really is online retail. I just want to walk into a store and try a bunch of things before I buy one, but we can't do that anymore

@rose_alibi There are so many things I own that I like that I wish I had bought five of at the time, because they are no longer made, or they are somehow worse, or they just aren't available for purchase online. And now I'm faced with this situation trying to replace them
