Looking up ideas to make a new 3d filament rack...and seeing a lot of clearly "man putting hobby in closet so can hide to please wife"

...so glad I'm the wife. And the resident trashpanda. And we have our own offices that the other person gets zero fucking say on.

Isn't respecting personal space the norm?

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Sadly, I wouldn't be astonished.

Is now the right time to give interwebble hugs?

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (4 children)

nah, I'm talking about other couples I've observed. His Lordship and I are good. 'tis why when hunting we had a minimum three bedrooms. we can't even share an office because his is all just "me work from home hence me have office" whereas mine is "I work from home / sew/ d print / scream at video games / build rack servers / swear at things / cats everywhere / it's a fucking muppet workshop."

Bet your office is more interesting. Is his office purely functional in an IKEA bland/greige kind of way?

To be fair some of it could be β€˜hobby in closet so you yourself don’t trip over it’

I used to consider putting a small desk and folding chair inside a closet so whenever I wasn’t working on something I could just shut the door.

<β€” also a trash panda

Gonna throw down a fair bit of potassium in the g-den today for that flower action. Sorry hay fever people. Perfect time for it.

You're stepping outside in this weather? You're far braver than I!

Daiso lego project fail. The bits are just too small to hold together a big model.
