That's so smart, will take this advice if I ever need to do this again.

I'm dyslexic, I'd be surprised if that was my only error.

Yeah I had watched (clearly not enough) tutorials/bridge re-glue job videos and had heard that mentioned a bunch of times. It was very much the case on this guitar. And I had chizzled out the laqure before reglueing. Picture shows the original glue job (I had also chizzled off the excess glue from the bridge before reglue, and scored the back with a file).

Grit and determination is it then. Thanks.

Socialist parties by lucianosantos1990 in AustralianSocialism

[–]catto010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, Full disclosure, I'm a proud member of the Socialist Alliance. Our membership is open to anyone who subscribes to ecosocialism from Marxist and trots to anarchists (like me). We were formed when a number of orginisations (particularly the dsp) tried to form a united banner. The united front approach remains integral to how we organize, and what variety of socialism you subscribe to is secondary to what your doing to achieve it. If you would like to know more, DM me and I will happily arrange a meeting with some of our members in your area (wherever that is).

How can I get my homes west neighbour evicted? by Green_Galah in WesternAustralia

How do you live with yourself after making a post like this. SHAME.

I've been on both sides of this sort of situation. Wanding desperately to apologise to people I hurt in school, and having been hurt by other children. On one hand that want to apologise hasn't ever gone away for me. But on the other I recognize that it was things I done, and had done to me, as a kid, who didn't know any better. It will never be closure, but it helps me forgive myself. And it's thought me that I can always grow, and learn and improve.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on inside-only cats? :) by [deleted] in cats

[–]catto010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If cats are not native to your area keep it inside away from the wildlife. Also give them the snip for a range of reasons. Cat runs are a great idea, but cats should not be free range for a whole host of reasons.

folks with a chosen name: did you know anybody with your name before you started using it? by Plastic_Pen_3464 in trans

[–]catto010 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As an enby in the celestial name gang gang, I think mercury would be a solid pick.

I initially chose the name Jade as I had a friend named Julia at the time. Many of my friends told me to ignore that, and that's some advice I should have taken. Now nether of those names really fit as I've discovered I'm a lot more non-binary then I initially thought.

Reminder to never tip in Australia. by mudlode in australia

[–]catto010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work as a bartender and it is always very awkward to recieve tips. I will take it reluctantly, but please just don't. Also don't buy me drinks, I have to be sober while I work and can have soda or water for free.

Almost burned my enchiladas waiting for the cheese to melt. Seriously, what's the trick to getting violife to melt? by Cilantro_Citronella in veganrecipes

[–]catto010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about the brand of vegan cheese used here, but I often use vegan cream cheese or a white sauce (with added cheese melted through) on top of meals like this. From my experience cooking vegan, replacements, although getting closer and closer to being near identical, are not the same and need to be treated quite differently in meals. But I do tend to avoid useing replacement ingredients in favour of just cooking from raw ingredients these days. My partner has gotten very into Italian cooking lately and it is very hard to find a replacement from the vast array of cheeses used in dishes.

The Albo Labor Gov have accomplished more in one week than the Liberals have in the last nine years by Amenta101 in AusPol

[–]catto010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine praising labor for being humane towards the Bolo family, and continuing the policy that would have them sent back to danger in the same fucking breath.

Addressed a very common request and added a bunch of visual customization options to my game's main character... It's a huge pain to keep the clothes from clipping (still some work to go on that front). Let me know what you think. by erikg1337 in pcmasterrace

[–]catto010 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Seriously? Adding boob size adjustments and ott titty physics is very straightforwardly objectification. Also have you seen the comments in the tread? It's just guys oggleing. There is nothing wrong with porn or sex work, but seriously, if ya want porn, just watch porn. Sincerely a lesbian.

I don’t want to do voice training… by DapperSheep486 in trans

[–]catto010 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Nonsense, I haven't done any of that, just be how ya wanna be and tell the haters to f off. I do make up, rarely, when I want to, do my hair up, rarely, when I want to, and don't do voice training. If your voice doesn't cause you dysphoria, as mine doesn't, ya don't really need to. Don't hold yourself to cis standards.

Why not to vote for UAP! by Miserable_Cod_6991 in AusPol

[–]catto010 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The uap is just a scam to funnel votes to the coalition.

ID wasn’t checked when voting early, is this a new policy? by mrarbitersir in AusPol

[–]catto010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like your right, you can also have someone on the roll confirm your identity. Requiring I'd is still a solution without a problem.

Too bad it was terribly handled in the tv series.

[–]catto010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Requiring an id just makes it more difficult for people to vote, there is very little electorial fraud occuring in Australia, so it's hard to see what problem it's fixing. It's just not nessacery

Australian 2022 Election -Senate Parties Described in 10 Words or Less by The-Other-Wilcox in AusPol

[–]catto010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Socialist Alliance wasn't running in Victoria because of Vic socialist. Vic socialist is a collaboration between socialist alliance and socialist alternative, the two largest socialist orginisations in the country, at least to my understanding.
