Find myself contemplating a used iPad mini of the 5th generation. Would be a highly portable drawing and learning machine for my night shifts.
@variablepulserate Yes, reading is an excellent way to pass the time. Other times I can spend a good amount of time with educational videos, training material, and documentaries.
I find it better to keep the mind stimulated during the long hours. Makes time move and I can learn new things.

@matigo Usually Friday and Saturday nights are uneventful, which suits me fine. The more bored I am; the better for the company.
Soon time for second night shift in a row. The things I do to keep the proverbial bread on the table…
@variablepulserate That is just amazingly cute looking, and I can’t help wanting to have one to putter around in. Unfortunately, I think the initial fun would wear off soon.
And then I’d shoehorn an oversized engine into it, and become a true road hazard. 😎
@matigo Oh no worries, but that’s a very kind offer. Thank you! 🙂
I’ll hopefully be able to hop on into the nearest ライフ and grab a pack or more next time I’m in 大阪. Part of the experience. Can’t get brand new MDs in stores here, sadly.
Fortunately I have a very healthy supply of NOS and used MDs to keep me going for many years to come. I’m more worried about the health of my recorders and players, comparably.
@matigo Love the animated Batman series! Excellent art style, brilliant writing, and amazing voice acting. The following Justice League and Justice League Unlimited are some of my favorite western animations of the last 20 or so years.
Still haven’t had time to check out Lower Decks, but it’s on my list.
An interesting take on Batman that is sadly overlooked and not very talked about is ‘The Batman’ from 2003 (I think). Very stylish, stylistic, and did away with lots of the overused tropes from earlier series and movies. At least in the first season.
