  • I haven’t been able to figure out how to do continuous printing on it without having to cut the labels with a separate pair of scissors. A previous handheld p-touch did this fine which minimized waste. (It would begin to print, prompt you to cut, then finish printing.)

    I’m thinking it was user error on my part, but I’m hoping diving back into the docs will help.

    At least third-party tapes seem to be very reliable.


  • I recently got one too. I previously just used sharpie and painters tape or a small strip of paper and scotch tape, but the label maker is great for things that will have the same label for a long time. Looks very nice.

    I’m still using the old ways for shorter term labels. But the label maker is motivating me to finish getting things together faster.





  • I am so jealous. My old work had stalls with gaps. The whole room was a bit tight, so you couldn’t just back up far enough to see the feet of the person in the stall. The locks were installed in such a way that if you pulled the door a little, it would open. (So a discreet soft pull on the door was not a good way of determining occupancy.)

    The only way to know was to look in the gap.

    I was about to go in a stall when I made eye contact with the current occupant of said stall. She just yelled out “YOU CREEPIN?”

    I am of course not socially awkward at all and was completely normal when I replied back “no… Sorry.”

    Actual privacy in a multi-stall bathroom would be so nice.

    Your decision to avoid Mulan II was the correct one. I adored the first Mulan movie. When I was a young girl, seeing female protagonists kick ass was always something I loved! (Her being Asian like me was a bonus.) I’m sure there is a healthy dose of nostalgia there.

    But the sequel had an even blander premise. Mulan and her buddies had to accompany three women to another city to be chosen by a prince (?) to be wed. The sisters fall in love with Mulan’s buddies. Forbidden love. Shenanigans happen. Lessons are learned. The sisters get to stay with the buddies. Who cares what happens to the prince? Mulan marries Shan Yu. Yawwwwwwwwn. Just saved you 1.25 hours.


  • I think it happens often. Doesn’t make it right. I’m sorry she said something so hurtful to you.

    If you want advice or just to talk, message me. I will listen.

    Curious about the meaning of life? I don’t think we’re really assigned roles. We’re just kind of here. You can just do the minimum if you want, just securing food and shelter. Or you can choose to do more if you have the means. You have the freedom to assign your own meaning to your life. I find most people either pursue religion/spirituality, community service, knowledge, or pleasure.

    I did. I do have sleep apnea, but it is mild. Mild enough that they’re hoping that fixing my bite will make the apnea go away. (My bite causes other problems so that would be a big win for me.) They will prescribe a CPAP if it’s not enough.

    I’m hoping I’ll respond to these treatments enough that we won’t need to dig any more, but I want to know just in case. It seems like I keep finding more information about how my brain working differently can make things more difficult for me, so I am always curious to read what others say about it.
