    Nothing a duct tape and a bit of electric engineering can't solve, eh? 😬

    Should probably consider electrical tape instead.

    should be applied in this order: cat hair, electrical tape, dog har, duct tape. the fibers add tensile strength

    Do y'all swing that mic around like a lasso or what? That level of fucked isn't happening on a static cable even if the sheath is made of fucking mud..

    Wonder if it's something in the desk mat causing it? Or do they have cheeto hands a lot? Work with solvents a lot?

    I once (in fact several times) fixed a cable which looked like that (because of a dog I had) with pipecleaners (bendy metal with soft cotton outside and some cling film.

    It looked worse, I think.
