  • This is lovely! If I may ask, what are you using to string the beads on? Wire or some kind of string? I tried beading a year ago and couldn’t decide which was better. Wire felt too rigid, braided nylon was too difficult for me to knot in the right place without any slack, and the elastic stuff kept breaking on me.

    I also couldn’t get my earrings to keep their form :/


  • For myself it’s not extremely memorable. There are some bops like Opalite, Cancelled, and The Life of a Showgirl. I don’t see myself putting the album in my main rotation, however. On their own, the tracks don’t fit anywhere in my playlist. (Sidenote: she really likes the word bouquet in this one, lol)

    Anyway, I did say that TTPD wouldn’t go in my main rotation for a while when it came out, and it’s now my third most played album next to Midnights and folklore so… maybe my opinion will change.

    What I appreciate about this one is that The Life of a Showgirl was my introduction to Sabrina Carpenter. I have to admit that I like Man’s Best Friend a lot more, lol


  • What’s your window manager?

    You can use grim+slurp to take screenshots. Scroll down to the Wayland section for a snippet:

    I keep my desktop muted so I am not sure if it makes a sound or not. If you wrap the commands into a timer loop it will do what you’re looking for.

    For the window title you can likely use your window manager’s IPC calls to get the active window title or list of windows on a workspace. My wayland experience is limited to hyprland and if you haven’t found a solution when I get home from work I can post the jank utility I made in rust to output the data I needed for my Eww bar.
