Okay. Angy thread time, as the news on renewable energy has me very upset again. "Oh no! We are clearing *so much* land for wind turbines and solar panels! Would someone think of the birds!"

Hi. Hey. I grew up in the coalfields of my country. Right in between the coal powerplants. Let's talk coal.

Today I woke up early, had breakfast and coffee, then drove to work, seeing the beautiful, misty clouds chilling in the valley before driving through them.

Slowly, summer is losing its battle with autumn, yet as the days get shorter and the mornings colder, the world comes alive with a new beauty.

"It turns out it may all be due to ultra-processed food." And there goes all my interest in this...

UPF is, frankly, a really weird way to classify foods. It's absolutely insane that people are calling for taxes on foods based on this.

I am growing increasingly concerned at the number of people I know from my burd site days that are not only on here, but seem to have calmed down a lot and come across as happier in general.

Kind of funny how Steam has become the magic sauce for making Windows programs work on Linux XD

My phone has just sent me a notification that the rain will stop soon. Which is... well, I was sort of hoping for it to actually *start* raining, but since we have sunshine and blue skies right now....

Today is one of those days where lunch simply cannot come soon enough...

Today has been so hot I could barely think. Tomorrow, we're looking at thunderstorms in the afternoon.
I suppose I could wish for winter, but I'm pretty sure all that will win me is wishing that it was summer instead XD

I don't know why, but I have a feeling my brain should taste like raspberry cream. Maybe I should lay off Project Zomboid for a bit....

I *crave* microgreens. So much. Microgreens and avocado with honey on toast I need that back in my life...

Some day I will have a profile picture too. By which I mean
... probably somewhere later today...

The airconditioned office -err I mean lunch- could not come soon enough today. Today is getting a new definition of hot. But the world is very green and pretty, and the scattered clouds are white and fluffy, so can I complain? Probably not too much.

Oh yes. I remember how social media works! I'm supposed to say something to start with. Maybe an introduction. Ooh, ooh! Something witty that reveals just enough about my personality for people to get the idea. Or... hmm... maybe that's too old fashioned. Wait, I'm sure something will come to me.
