I bought a Brompton folding bike this summer and I love it so much. It reduces so much of the friction of dealing with a bike in a small walk-up apartment. And it’s so pretty!

It’s been a hell of a week, but I finally made some time for tea, short stories, and a couple of Fellini films.

I’ve been helping the owner of the local tearoom pack up her shop after twelve years, and it’s been a poignant experience. But I adopted several plants to live on in my apartment, plus a Bai Ya Bing Cha; a white pu-erh cake of a tea we shared earlier.

I used to have the opposite problem, then started painting to fill my empty walls. I didn’t stop , though, so now I have canvases stacked in every corner of my apartment, and more stretcher bars in the corner 😅

Babysitting an old-man pug for a few days.

He’s all tuckered out after scratching at my bedroom door all night, yearning for the pursuit of unsupervised mischief in the rest of my apartment.

Reminds me of this setting in Overcast, Marco Arment’s podcast app.

Tangentially related tiny bug: that menu icon isn’t visible in dark mode when it’s in a post detail view (i.e., when the icon appears in the upper right).

Hey, thank you so much for sharing this! I've worked side-by-side with @divy.bsky.social for 5+ years (but that guy is on another echelon 🧙🏻‍♂️)

I’ll definitely consider preparing a letter for this!
