Some new mushrooms popped up in my yard now. I've identified that the first one at least is called a shaggy mane.

Think it's enough to keep some left over after the trick or treater's? 💀 I forgot how much candy I bought last year but they nearly cleared me out!

I don't always post #Shroomsky, but when I do, it's to document the fungi that's growing in my back yard. According to a Google Lens search, these may be a kind of Russula mushroom.

I showed up to my first protest today! #NoKings Oregon City. It was surprisingly a bit emotional to see so many people out there, and cars honking in support as they drove by.
10/10, would definitely recommend going to one of these if you haven't gotten out there yet!

I did archery last weekend for a friend's birthday party. I've done this probably fewer than 10 times in my life. I took a picture of my target after the 1st and last round (37 rounds in total!)
I may have gotten a proper bullseye once, but I hit the general area enough to fully cut the middle out!

There's a pigeon party in my yard. (I'm not sure what kind of bird really, I've usually called them doves).
Usually at most two of them come around to collect bird seed dropped from the feeder above, but it looks like they've told all their friends about it now too.

I've built a "modern retro home page" to host on Neocities. Check it out! noahs.site
I've been making websites since 1999 at age 12, and the modern resurgence of the Indie Web movement and Neocities bringing back the old Web has me nostalgic.
I'll be posting my "era correct" old artwork on mine!

Inspired by the Indie Web movement and the resurgence of sites like Neocities, I've dusted off a cringe old website I built as a kid (last touched 2003) and put it back online.
It's about a childhood story I wrote, ca. 12-15yo, inspired by all my favorite things. 1/2 🧵

I was feeling nostalgic tonight and installed Windows XP in a virtual machine.
I got old-school AOL Instant Messenger set up on a RetroAIM server, and I dusted off my old Perl chatbot code (from back in 2004!) and signed it on to AIM as well.
It's crazy to think that WinXP is now a "Retro OS"

It was haircut day today! My hair was so curly that you couldn't tell before, but it was long enough to reach past my nose!

I don't know about you, but I get up to enough debauchery that my religious bigoted family (who missed the rapture because they voted for the Anti-Christ) would stroke out if they knew.
Unrelated, here is a meme that got me laughing the other day that this is a good excuse to share:
