I dislike having to boil myself down into a pithy description. Here are some likes, I guess: cats, photography, art, gadgets, fountain pens, stationery, video games, the old web (blogs!), science fiction, books, tech history

Phew, playing ACNH at golden hour on a Switch OLED kinda sears my retinas... 😆

Screenshot from Animal Crossing New Horizons showing fall terrain at golden hour; everything is tinted a vivid golden orange, which kind of overwhelms my sight!

Full house (café)! Looks like they appreciate the deluxe tuna bits I put out. 😺

This is a dumb suggestion, Reddit app. My post is specifically about Neko Atsume 2 and doesn't need to be crossposted elsewhere. 🙄 Stop telling people to blindly farm for engagement. 👎

Yin and yang

#NekoAtsume2 #cats #gaming
Tree stump-shaped house with one black and brown cat sitting inside, and another black and brown cat sitting on top. The two cats have "flipped" patterns, hence yin and yang.

It’s very hard to see in this picture, but I tried an ube IPA that is somewhat purplish. IRL the foam had a purple tint, and the beer itself looked like a dark amber mixed with a bit of purple. Sadly “flavored” beers always disappoint me, a non-beer drinker, because they never meet my expectations.

Hmmmm, the door does what, now? (Picture of erroneous closed captioning from Schitt’s Creek episode)

The Apple TV Snoopy screensaver has a bunch of birthday-themed stuff because today is Snoopy's birthday! 🥳

Currently reading a physical book (that’s unwieldy to hold…fighting the desire to buy the e-book for convenience). since I finished watching The West Wing, I figured I’d read this.

Seriously, my old Pixel 2XL output great photos, perhaps nicer than the standard output of phones today, thanks to overtweaked computational photography. 😛

It’s fun to see specific seasonal updates in the Snoopy screensaver on Apple TV. Reminds me of Google doodles. Snoopy has a moon rock house and some other moon-related animations today because of the Apollo 11 mission.

Outtake from earlier when I was trying to take a picture of my Pentax Q10 on the floor and the cats were like, “whatcha doin’?” It’s funny how the wide angle distorted Sprite’s ears (cat on left) a bit. 😸

Yeah the black "unsubscribe" text on a black background isn't shady at all... 🙄👎

I don't even recall if I actively looked for Origo Shoes, but this anti-pattern immediately made me not want to have anything to do with the product. Good job.

Kinda reminds me of the sunglasses the aliens wore in V (from the 1980s, not the reboot).

Look what I found when I was rummaging around in our storage unit: a gdgt-branded iPhone case. 🙂 I would've brought it back home (I actually found two), but it was all sticky thanks to the rubberized coating, ick. Not sure what I'll do with it. 😅 CC: @roj.as

The Amazon app notified me of a deal it found for me: the most generic Amazon Basics fountain pen on offer. Yeah. It knows me. 🙄 🤦‍♀️

I love 3D printing. Yesterday I didn’t have an external grip for my Playdate. Today I do! (And it works pretty well)

Window Garden is letting me live out my dream of having lots of plants around the house digitally. I'm also decorating a bit cuter than I might IRL. 😆

A shelf attached to the wall to the right of the sink holds additional plants.

Full house (or garden)! Usually there are one or two spots empty, but finally every spot's got a cat. 😺

I started playing this chill window gardening game a few days ago. It's cute. You get to put a bunch of plants and decorations on a window sill while listening to lo-fi music.
