Two interviews lined up for today. Just when I had decided I was going to try the world of freelancing, my current work asked if I was interested in doing a secondment outside of my organisation (which could turn into a permanent job). Maybe I am. AND then a job I applied for a while ago has come out of the woodwork. Is the world trying to tell me something?

Noodling around and saw that old 7 Red Lines video turn up in suggested on YouTube. I clearly blanked out the INHUMANE PSYCHOLOGICAL TORTURE that is watching that video because I stupidly clicked and only made it halfway through before ragequitting and now I have all this pent up fury and trauma.

The countdown is gonna begin soon. The theme: #1 Top billboard song of the year, of every year starting with 1950's Good Night Irene by The Weavers and ending in 2000.

Anyone want to guess a song and a year? Put your money on folks.

Hello brains trust! Any cunning ideas what I can do with this? I’ve 3m of 150 and it is not a garment fabric. Lite hessian? Good for shopping bags but I certainly don’t need that many. black &amp; gold cat print fabric

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Make shopping bags as gifts for friends and family. Tote bag. Potato bag. Onion bag. Place mats. A bag bag to store other bags in.

[–] 6368_39162@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A bag for bags is totally a thing I have

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

[–] 6368_39162@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You could make cute fabric planters for potted indoor plants, or furoshiki for Christmas/birthdays.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

curtains, cushions
