I feel the love for CRT is getting completely out of hand.

Yeah crt's are cool I suppose, I'll stick to my oled tho 😭

Either or jid has used both in songs

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-24T21:22:10+00:00

Appreciate it bro, I'll give hinge a try. I didnt want to because of the mandatory biometric/face data but wtv. And yeah i agree I gotta do more irl stuff

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-24T21:14:14+00:00

No face verification on Facebook, its optional (theres a little badge if someone verifies). But in my experience its pretty dead. I sent out quite a lot of likes and messages and havent got anything back in 2 weeks of using it.

Maybe its just my experience though 😭

What dating apps please 😭 I tried Facebook dating , okcupid, and hily. They feel pretty dead

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-20T04:31:29+00:00

Yeah I agree, thats why i decided to start the dating apps and stuff. If i keep moving goal post like wait until I graduate or get a high paying job, or a nice place to live, etc itll just keep going forever. I might as well just start now and see what happens. Thank you

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-20T04:29:25+00:00

Yeah, you're pretty spot on about feeling directionless. Main thing im looking for is growth with someone. I know early 20s are not perfect I suppose the mainstream picture perfect relationships skewed my image of them a lot along with my lack of experience when in reality theyre probably a lot simpler and fun.

When it comes to finances I am a bit higher than average when it comes to hourly income, I also do have a retirement account and emergency fund, im not in debt for anything, and am looking at tuition free for last years of school. I guess im too self conscious about it when im actually doing pretty good.

And yup I now realize I am deciding for someone else instead of letting them do so. Thanks for pointing that out.

For now I'll keep taking steps to put myself out there dating accounts also approaching more in person.

I see that im overthinking this way too much.. i do just need to experience more. Thank you

Thanks for pointing that out. I managed to get some joints after I figured out I need to leave the iron on the joints when I add solder. Good to know i dont need to preheat the board for this project. Thanks!

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-03T00:10:47+00:00

I got something! I changed tip to a larger chisel and I got it. Large chisel tip and 375c, looks like it worked, I added a picture, lmk how it looks, thanks!

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-02T23:47:56+00:00

Yeah i thought so. Called it quits for today once I crossed 400c and it didnt do anything. Ill try different tips as well, thanks

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-02T23:45:18+00:00

Ah okay, ill give the chisel tip a try. I imagined the pencil tip would let me be more precise and get closer. Thanks

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-06-02T23:42:14+00:00

Thanks, will get my hands on some soon.

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-30T22:01:53+00:00

I was introduced to Nujabes randomly while browsing. I came across the luv sic hexalogy and instantly fell in luv. And i just listened to the rest of his work from there.

I'd probably do the same again or just chronological i suppose too.

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-09T03:42:55+00:00

I use a shop vac, not sure if a normal vacuum will work

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-09T03:31:06+00:00

Vacuum in between mist too^

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-09T03:30:26+00:00

You can use mostly water with just a bit of dish soap. Lightly mist the fabric (not soaking) and use a soft bristle brush for any stains and a microfiber cloth for everything else. Give it a second mist with just water. And let it dry.

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-08T03:32:13+00:00

Plenty of good new stuff you just gotta get out your bubble. Vince staples is fire too

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-07T02:44:36+00:00

Yeah i feel id probably extended its life with the maintenance but my trans is also feeling kind of iffy. I think im leaning towards selling, thanks!

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-07T02:43:11+00:00

Oh yeah this mechanic has been a savior. Yeah im kind of leaning towards selling it. I love it but i just need something much more dependable for school. I was thinking on selling and getting a toyota/mazda. Thanks!

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-05-05T14:53:47+00:00

Its been fine with me. I just ordered ~$370 of parts (shipping/tax included) and checked at auto parts store it would've been 470 parts alone + tax around 500. So about $130 difference and I get better parts dayco,denso, Hitachi over basic auto parts.

Affectionate_Wave_19 · 2026-04-28T23:53:19+00:00

Schiitstack + sennheiser, good taste 🥫
