I wonder how quickly the gun control thing in the US would be solved if socialist militias started popping up everywhere

Now, I've heard of glorious Japanese blades folded over a thousand times, but this is just taking the piss

I like that the masto post on /r/videos has "$ AD" flair

As if anyone involved with masto has spare funds for advertising

Well this is a missed opportunity, if the accent colour was gold instead of black it could have been the Iron Man watch

The UTC hand on my watch is now marginally useful! Yay!

(damn DST)

ATTENTION:

The United Kingdom is now on UTC+1 as the clocks have just gone forward an hour

Please adjust anything that needs adjusting accordingly

My cat, Fizziwig, had to have a few stitches on a wound today so he's got to wear one of those collars so he won't do any damage cleaning himself

He's really not happy about it the poor sod

Coolest thing at Baselworld this year, the Urwerk AMC

It's a mechanical watch that is set, regulated, and wound by an actual honest to god atomic clock

It is hella cool

What kind of bizarre individual takes diazepam(valium) recreationally?

I have to take it from time to time for anxiety attacks and it always makes me feel like shit for most of the rest of the day

It just wouldn't be Baselworld if Rolex didn't release something awful and tacky

Rolex Rainbow Daytona in Everose Gold

There's one major problem with the "What is Mastodon?" video

It doesn't feature the true mascot of mastodon, @squirrel

Until my gear gets a couple of scratches and/or dings it just doesn't really feel like it's mine, it feels like I'm borrowing it or something

Ah, my watch has a couple of tiny almost impossible to see scratches on the AR coating on the crystal now

I can consider it properly mine now!

Took the best part of 9 months for even that to appear on it and I've been wearing it pretty much every day, Sinn watches are really hard as nails

Just remembered something that I'm slightly sad isn't still as much of a thing, sampler albums

Used to be that a music label (typically the small indie type) would put out an album with a song or two from all of their artists on

Was a great way to find new bands
