dawnsie!

In our case, we had 2 major planned shutdowns simultaneously this year, 17k hours of overtime across maybe 100-ish maintenance workers and they’re still convinced we’re overstaffed and wanna rent us out to other plants to do maintenance there while we barely keep our own shit afloat

Woah, I figured it was specialised to some degree but that sounds cool as hell!
Sometimes I get the feeling that they either refuse to see the value of their people or maybe we just spoil them by constantly fixing old and broken shit and stretching ourselves thin to maintain the status quo

I don’t think higher-ups can ever understand the amount of care and dedication that goes into maintaining old machinery. Sometimes I’d love to see them try doing it better than their specialised personnel

What kinda machine are we talking about btw, if you’re at liberty to say?

Biased opinion here, but if people can’t handle seeing a grown woman, much less a pretty one, they weren’t real ones to begin with. Also, the tomestone phone case is so cool!

So incredibly happy with how this turned out, tysm again!!

so it seems! toe is also obviously way messed up, would probably need a good 15-20mm out of the tie rod and I don't think that'll leave enough thread to be comfortable with.

New control arms ordered, either gonna have to see if they let me return these despite scratching one up or just buy a crv ig

They sent me CRV control arms mislabelled as civic ones so now I either gotta run atrocious camber or get some new parts :(

Currently at -3° camber at full droop, but I’m not building a stance car :(

3-spokes and a parking pole?! Miss, this is a luxury vehicle!

This might be the best thing I’ve used a computer for in my entire life

Im OSHA‘s favourite :)

Get pet, fluffy

Terrible creatures, aren’t they? 😭

Pfl civics on 621 plates you say? 👀

and just to clarify, sure, a unique style may not suit every character or taste out there, but I think it works incredibly well with the characters and suits you've made, and I really enjoy seeing your work! fuck the haters.

somehow I feel like then complimenting the craftsmanship, the one possibly valid point to make about a physical product you're meant to wear, makes this sound so much more cruel? Like, sure, they may not enjoy a particular style but shitting on beautifully expressive art just because it's different?

i DESPERATELY want that 2024 1/7 scale Racing Miku figurine but I can't afford it over all the car parts I keep buying 😭

extremely relatable. Highly recommend smacking another expensive hobby on top of it to help balance it out

time for a new pinned post and art dump, lest folks forget I'm actually a dog!

Hi! I'm Dawnsie, he/they, late 20s, Electronics Technician and Dog Coinesseur from Germany! I mainly post about my car shenanigans with the occasional dash of furry content mixed in!

Gimme more Mature Content in the furry fandom, not as in porn, but as in „emotionally intelligent and capable of handling big feelings without causing others discomfort or harm“

Wouldn’t it be nice if this community were able to police this kinda shit with the same fervor as slightly morally grey artwork :/

as a man, I can confirm that anytime I plop my heavy ass in a vehicle, it automatically gains 20hp!

jokes aside, the argument is absolutely ridiculous, and I'm incredibly glad to see the organisers agree. keep on zoomin!

A protest form from the Sports Car Club of America national autocross championships, alleging that a trans woman is not eligible to compete in ladies classes for [reasons]. Ruling of protest committee is that the protest has no basis and protesting party is an asshole.

Competitors (the not-asshole kind) in the SSC Ladies class at the SCCA Solo Nationals show support for their colleague who was protested for competing in a class she was not eligible for (spoiler alert: she totally was eligible).

Sometimes, motorsports gets it.
SCCA Solo Nats competitor is protested on Day 1 in a ladies class for being trans. Protest committee rules aggrieved party should get fucked into the sun. Day 2 the rest of class shows support for the protested party on way to her first run. She would go on to win.

G-Witch

if you're down for an incredibly boring DMV trip we can register it when you're up here :3

Roughly 3 months of working on this thing after hours, it’s finally technically done and has passed its roadworthiness inspection!

It’s been a ride :)

If anything, you look younger than I do at 28!

Fanart of Haru Urara from hit game Uma Musume: Pretty Derby. She is smiling wide with her arms up in a cheer as bold pink text reads "Never give up! Even losers can win!"

I've also been playing horse game
