Video cassettes with footage from a work event this past Sunday were just dropped on my desk. This is neither cool nor retro. What am I supposed to do with these?
This super cute tea cup set (actually, part of a full dinnerware set) were a hand-me-down from my mother. She used them when she was in grad school. They’re super fragile but I think very cool. The yellow is super-70s.
My Pioneer SX-636 Stereo Receiver (likely a 1974 or 1975 model) finally kicked the bucket. The bass has been cutting in or out since I inherited it from my grandfather in about 2002. Tonight, midway in to the Forces of Evil album, the audio almost cut out entirely. In her last breaths, my stereo gave me garbled lo-fi-esque audio out of the right speaker. I did all the obvious checks, wires, cables, scientific plugging and unplugging; plugged in headphones, etc. She’s done.
There’s a place I’ll take it down the street to see if they can fix it. The sound out of this thing was great, but I won’t be heartbroken if this is it.
