Heading into the city as this is my last Friday off before resuming full time work 😭😭😭😭
Anyone got a recommendation for a fun snack or place to check out?
The sock shop on station level @ central
I couldn't find it! 😭
😿
you could lose a full day in minotaur if you're a nerd
Fucking love Minotaur. And this was the perfect day to go, no jostling the sweaty masses, just my own.
I remember going to minotaur to find a gift for my mate (my ex's friend really, but I thought we were friends too lol, how naive). Well, I found a massive photo book of Suicide Girls at Minotaur and bought it for him.
Silly me. Should have kept it for myself (I wanted to be a suicide girl lol 👀😅), because old mate turned into a incel gooner type commenting on AI girls on Threads and Insta 😂😂😂
Minotaur has amazing stuff, bought Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman from them when I couldn't find it elsewhere (also many years ago now), because it had a follow up short story about Shadow from American Gods (my fav book hands down no notes).
GO TO MINOTAUR
I put a rule in for myself that I was not allowed to go into minotaur unless I had at least a hundy in disposable cash that I would not care to lose.
Incub8tor at Melbourne central is great, lots of pins and local art stuff. Wish I could buy the whole store tbh.
My friend bought me a "be gay do crime" key ring thing from there which I adore
Literally the first place I went. Stumbled on it a few months back and it was sadly too busy to browse properly today. Suffice to say, today I have supported ze artists and I will enjoy my loot.
