Yeah, I don’t have the money to do a custom request like that. But I do have the time to fiddle around with my own pet projects, and a little amount of money to get crafty with.

So I found the link on Amazon and one of the listings says it is brass coated zinc alloy. The cat detail looks like enamel.

I have a pen loop on this same notebook that is advertised as brass, and it’s not wearing like this is. I don’t think this is actually brass. It looks like it was maybe painted? Not sure, and I’m also not an expert.

Found one shop selling it on Amazon that says it’s “Brass Plated Zinc Alloy”, but other stores selling it just say it’s “metal”.,

😂 that’s a pretty good argument

That sounds like a super cool project! Do you have pictures?

Thanks for the tip on humidity. That’s definitely a problem in my area.

Ive got an expert spray painter I can call on to help me with this.

Do you think I could repaint some of the brass color that has come off already?

I’m willing to put in some work if it will last. Do you have more details on how to do this?

Also, do you think I could repaint some of the brass color that has come off so far before I do this?

Haha, thanks for the care you took in outlining steps on your other post. I’ve definitely ruined stuff with the nail polish before. It’s just not very strong, and even if it is ok to begin with, it doesn’t last.

I promise I won’t do this 😂

Hyperion was a fun read. Definitely recommend. I had a small book club and it was fun to talk about.

I’m so sorry. You have nothing to be embarrassed about, though I know that’s easier said than done. I hope you find peace and ways to move joyfully that make you feel good.

Agreed. It’s terrible.

No, no way, that would be terrible on forgiveness!

Forgiveness is as much for you as for them. I hope you find it in your heart to let it go.

So, I have been here before. If you download the shop app, it requires access to your emails so that it can scan and report tracking info you have been emailed. It is not showing you anything you don’t have in email already. I’ve used shop, and if there is trackig, you will get it in your email. If you don’t have tracking, you don’t get it in your email, and I don’t believe it shows any additional info in shop either.

Me this week.

I recommend all of these, but it’s not a real summary. I’ve hopped around to many different apps since stitcher died. I like Antenna pod, but I switched to Podverse for a little bit before coming back to Antenna Pod. Iirc, Podverse did the queues better, but only if they had properly added support for the specific podcast. I lik Audio fiction, which means I’m constantly looking for new shows. So I encountered a lot that weren’t fully supported yet, got frustrated and switched back to Antenna Pod. I’ve gotten into the habit now of adding a podcast to the queue season by season, and it works ok.

And bonus, if you like Audio fiction, follow https://www.theend.fyi/ to find recommendations. It’s great!
