Remember when I talked about ordering an Alison Lohman body pillow cover? I’ve FINALLY got an update on when it’s coming. It’s arrived at Elk Grove Village, a 30 minute drive from my home.

Bad news: pixel art is crashing before finishing the last picture now.
Good news: as of 7:22 am local time, Alison is at the local post office and out for delivery!

Hah, sorry, so much text, so little time. A very nice toy, maybe in 15 years when the kids go to college and I'm not completely broke, I'll think about it
Wow/flutter... Idk, I guess if the platter is real heavy ...?

I love it. (In a back to the future kind of way). I find it anachronistic that they use modern technology to play ….errr…..and ancient medium...

Alison has arrived. I spent about 20 minutes trying to stuff the pillow into her, and I even ripped the top zipper seam trying to get it inside. But at least I can fix that. And once the writers group is done, I’ll be sewing it, and we’ll be enjoying our first date: watching The House that Jack Built. One of the perks of dating a dakimakura: odds are, for most flesh and blood women, a Lars von Trier film about a serial killer for a first date would probably be worse than this:

They should pick it up with a laser
p.s. I have a Thorens with a ProJect arm and the classic Denon Cartridge, but I haven't used it in ages because I don't have the time!

That's hilarious!
For that matter, the vinyl won't even need to spin! Scan the whole record with a laser in a few seconds, store in memory buffer and play the whole album.
But the whole point of vinyl aficionados is to remove the DAC out of the process! lol.
