Just watched and very much enjoyed Predator: Badlands. I didn’t expect it to have the cute wholesome moments it had, but it’s welcome ☺️

Unsurprisingly there’s “menly men” online crying about the movie taking that angle 🙄

In a tangled mess of trying to degoogle a bit.

I've got a Workspace account to cancel, but I'm downgrading to a free plan to (hopefully) keep the YouTube channels? Nothing is clear in the docs.

Salvaging what I can / need to from Drive too.

Yay, getting a Google Workspace subscription increase because:

"the significant added Al value"

Probably time I re-evaluate needing it at all, given that I've already moved email provider 🤷

Day three of Christmas leftovers. We've reached mix and match territory and it is delicious.

Jansson's Temptation (traditional Swedish casserole) on the plate with some mystery pasta I found in the fridge? Done.

Oh? Vegan cheeses (blue included) to blend in? It'd be rude not to.

Jag är mätt 🤤

QGIS feels like a bit of a beast, but I've enjoyed learning the basics so I can do some map stuff! 🗺️

After a 30min YouTube video: Look! A line 🤩

Started a fresh Baldur's Gate 3 sesh with my partner last night.

After picking up a few characters for our party, we released an imprisoned goblin on our way to find a quest giver.

We got caught with the goblin, started blasting, accidentally killing the quest giver we were looking for... 👀

I'm on onion duty 🧅

One of the few dishes we're making today, Jansson's Temptation 🇸🇪 We're going with chunky pieces for this one 😊

Ready for a game night! 🥰

[installing asbestos] “love it or hate it it’s here to stay”
“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here

Camera flash arrived! 🥳⚡

Now I can test some more macro photography. I still need to make a diffuser out of an old Pringles® can though ✂️

There's just something about coding games that appeals to me.

This one is The Farmer was Replaced, recently made available on macOS. It uses a python-like language.

There are others out there too, Shenzhen I/O for assembly,
Screeps and BitBurner for JavaScript.

This is one of the most awe-inspiring and beautiful projects I've ever experienced through a website.

I very much enjoyed scrolling through all of these with the accompanying music 💜 Would make for a great picture book too!
Scroll through from the tiniest organism right up to the largest. All beautifully hand-illustrated by an actual human.

looking for website inspiration 👀✨

what are your favorite personal dev portfolios/blogs (or websites of small dev/design agencies)? I'm not talking super whimsical (although they are great 🤩), but beautifully made, nice to look at and read, great typography, nice little extras... 😊

Hike day! 🥾

Spotted so many mushrooms on this one! I'll be uploading them to iNaturalist soon to try and ID them.

And although not the right season for it, we were even able to forage a bit of wild asparagus 😊 We'll be sure to revisit in spring for a better harvest.

Ditching streaming for local music has got me rediscovering loads of artists I used to listen to (Thanks to me finding my old supply of ripped CDs 💿)

Flyleaf, Placebo, Death Cab for Cutie, Breaking Benjamin, Nonpoint... all still slaps.

Friends fear he has once again made The Computer do his bidding.

I built a little site for all my photos away from any social media. Had a little fun with it, yanno?

The MAN HOODIE ads (I'm continuously fed on YouTube) would be hilarious if they were a parody.

Don't forget fellas - it's not manly to wear layers. You ain't a man unless you wear a "TACTICAL HOODIE"! It's MILITARY GRADE. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤢

Currently planning the Christmas / New Years food menu with my partner - it's going to be an awesome blend of Swedish and Portuguese dishes 😋 3rd year in a row 🎄

Full on deleting paragraphs of a reply because I've decided that actually, I don't want to engage in an argument.

Might be silly, but it keeps me in a happier frame of mind at the end of the day 🥰

Life is too short to be arguing back and forth with a stranger online who won't give a shit anyway.
