Blog
This is a list of all the content on this site - I like to think of it as my digital stream of conscousness. Blog posts, notes, books Iβve read, and links Iβve enjoyed are all mixed together, but you can filter them if you prefer. Enjoy. π

I've been thinking about getting an activity tracker to, you know, track my activities. But I don't want to wear that, plus a watch. Then I remembered I have an old Garmin (from 2017) in the drawer. Still working great, so I'll use that instead. π

This post is fantastic. Thanks, Manu.

Whenever I've checked Mastodon recently, all I've been seeing are angry posts about Trump, Elon, and now the whole Manton/Vincent vs Adam drama.
For the record, I'm not saying any of it is wrong. I'm just saying I'm sick of reading about how shit the world is. I need a break from it.
I write most post from the notes section of my blog and they're automatically syndicated to Masto. So you'll probably still see posts, but I doubt I'll be active in the replies for a little while.

2025 can just fuck right off. I'm at the back end of my second working week of the year which, ironically, is also my second 50+ hour working week.
There's a big yellow thing in the sky that has killed all the snow.
I don't know what it is.

I donβt understand services like Instagram and their ilk. Theyβre photo sharing services, right? But I can share photos here AND write text AND add links. See, I just did both below.
Donβt get it. π€·ββοΈ

With all the shit going on at the moment with #WordPress and #Facebook, this is a welcome change.
Love this.
