How does it work for you?

I sand the surface with 220 grit then apply two coats of acrylic enamel. While the paint is still wet, pock the surface in random locations with a blunted nail and score here and there with a dull screwdriver. When dry, I coat with a thinned down acrylic matte black then wipe with damp rag to smear into cracks and expose the color. Finish with a good polyurethane.

You probably never heard of it, but I shitpost on this obscure technology forum called Lemonworld or something on things I would never admit to in public.

It’s great, I’m something of a celebrity over there.

Videogames help. Or a longboard and music. Drive and music.

Swap longboarding for running and that’s me.

Nothing beats screaming your favorite song into the warm summer air driving down some nice roads.

I’ll do that too, but only when walking. I’m too fat to do that when running.

In addition to that I’ll practice Spanish on my phone during my nightly walk/runs. My neighbors must think I’m really weird.
