Maybe it was a purchase, maybe an experience? What did you treat yourself to?

Some new records, including this gorgeous translucent green 12"…
A motorcycle, always wanted one and figured now is a good time.
Hell yeah! And who downvoted his/her treat to themselves? A real turd in the punchbowl eh.
Just this morning, took my time poopin a poop
My bröther in beans, you’re gonna give yourself a hemorrhoid if you sit on the bowl too long.
I appreciate the PSA. I might add:
To avoid developing hemorrhoids while seated, minimize pressure on the anorectal vasculature by limiting toilet time to less than 5-10 minutes and avoiding straining with defecation. Prolonged sitting increases intra-abdominal and rectal venous pressure, leading to vessel engorgement and possible displacement of the anal cushions. Additionally, adopting a supported-squat posture (knees elevated above hips with a footstool) can straighten the anorectal angle, reducing the physiological “kink” created by the puborectalis muscle and facilitating easier, less strained evacuation.
To put it in layman’s terms. And totally not AI.
I bought a bambino plus espresso machine with a vs3 grinder!
Will be fun to get real coffee at home.
That’s amazing. I’m on my own espresso journey. Even knowing all the theory going in, consistent execution can be elusive.
Good luck to you and cheers to great coffee at home.
Bought some lavender bubble bath and had a 2 hour hot bath with a book and relaxing music.
I got my nails done. I’ve only had fake nails once, but I went to a wedding and I wanted to look nice. I got gel nails in dark blue with a cat eye finish. The ladies at the salon were super helpful and picked out a good color that matched my dress. It was awesome, but I don’t regularly pay $85+ for something that only lasts 2 weeks. I’ll get them removed in a week and get a basic manicure to help my nails recover.
They do look pretty fabulous though 💅
New shower head. Can’t wait for it to show up.
£10 ear buds, my 10yr old ones kind of still work but don’t disconnect when they go back in the charger so are frustrating as hell. Worth it
I preordered the new Katamari game that’s coming out next week. I’m very excited!
I’ve been getting Dental work done recently, and it’s across the street from a harbor freight, so after each appointment I’ve been going there and buying a tool or two. Just bought a flex head ratchet yesterday.
It’s better than buying fast food i tell myself, which I’ve stopped doing for the most part. (If I’m out and about with people, or there’s something limited time that I want to try sure, but otherwise i haven’t bought any in a couple months)
People often shit on HF but their hand tools are perfectly acceptable for the average home mechanic, and hell honestly fine for a lot of professionals with their new Icon linea. Even their power tools have gotten pretty good lately. They’ll last you many years, tools are always a good investment.
It’s Friday afternoon. Good time for beer and papadums.
Canceling going to a birthday party.
Canceling going grocery shopping.
I bought a 12€ Smartwatch recently. (Crazy what you can get for very little money.)
A new eyeshadow palette, highlighter, and two lip products. Here’s a photo from the brand’s promotional materials because I haven’t received the shipment yet:
uuuh, shiny
I’m slowly allowing myself to eat more after a long history of dealing with an ED :)
Nice! ED’s are rough, I wish you the best in your recovery.
You can’t fool me. You’re just trying to offload your pancake surplus! (I’ll take three stacks please…)
What’s ED?
Eating Disorder
I got a mechanical keyboard after researching a ton on which one I wanted. second-hand, so I was a bit restricted to what was offered. I’m getting a Keychron V5 Max, which I’m then going to mod with some new keycaps, a tape-mod and possibly filling it up with foam. The YouTube channel Hipyo Tech has been on the top of my YouTube binge list the last few weeks.
The only “problem” with buying a nice mechanical keyboard is that you never need to buy another one.
Ha! I’ll live 😅 And there’s plenty of modding things I can still buy for it… Keycaps, switches, foam to fill it with…
Damn, that’s a nice treat. I’m no purist but, wow, typing on a good switch/keyboard combo is a real comfy joy. I love blue switches, or the buckling spring ones from the old IBM planks. I tried a friends 25-different-switches try-out board and found out that there might be switch types I like even more! Maybe I’ll look around again if this Ducky One (3) keyboard ever dies, but I wasn’t counting on that happening :)
Great keyboard, what switches are you using? Their browns are my fav switch
Just the ones that come with it, for now… I’m watching the online second hand market place of my country for offerings of switches, as I don’t want to spend too much. And it’s better for the environment, too! I’ve heard pretty much all keycaps by the HMX brand are good, so that’s what I have a search alert for.
