Went to a garden centre today, and this lovely lady let me take some pictures while she went about her work

A bee has settled onto flower to collect pollen. The plant is bright and blooming though the background is darker because it’s a rainy day

I was updating my human.json file using #GoLand from @jetbrains.com It uses full-line code completion which is actually pretty good Except... It popped up while I was writing into my yaml file with an automatic suggestion for the URL. It's wrong, but I tried it Dear reader. I was rick-rolled!

A YAML file showing a URL, date, and a second URL

The first URL is for https://foosel.net and with a date of 2026-03-21. The second URL is a link to the Rick Astley, Never Gonna Give you Up video on YouTube

Bought “This Movie Sucks” by Durry on CD. They turned up in a YouTube video and I fell in love with them and their music. And there’s this on the inside of the sleeve, and now I love them more

THIS ONE CD IS WORTH MORE THAN 5,000 STREAMS. THE MODERN MEDIA LANDSCAPE HAS TAUGHT US THAT ENTERTAINMENT HAS NO TRUE VALUE. THAT THE ARTS ARE A FREE FLOWING COMMODITY, AND WE OWE THE CORPORATIONS FOR GIVING US ACCESS TO THEM WHILE THEY PAY ARTISTS NEXT TO NOTHING. WHEN YOU BUY RECORDS YOU PUT THE POWER BACK WITH THE ARTIST. THIS RECORD WAS MADE BY REAL PEOPLE WITH REAL INSTRUMENTS. YOU'LL HEAR THE WRINKLES, YOU'LL HEAR THE WOOD CREAKING On OUR CRUMMY GUITARS, AND THE REAL DRUMS BOUNCING OFF THE REAL WALLS OF A REAL ROOM FILLED WITH REAL FRIENDS. WE HOPE YOU LOVE THESE SONGS. WE HOPE THIS RECORD STAYS WITH YOU FOR A LONG TIME, AND WE HOPE SOMEDAY WE'LL MEET YOU FACE TO FACE AT A SHOW SO WE CAN THANK YOU PERSONALLY FOR TAKING THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM. WHEN YOU'RE DONE, WE HOPE THAT YOU'LL FIND ANOTHER SMALL ARTIST TO SUPPORT DIRECTLY.
FOREVER THANKFUL FOR THE LIFE WE HAVE, AND ALL THE PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT MAKE IT POSSIBLE.

Deployed #Readeck today. Was debating where I could put another #RaspberryPi but in the end I deployed it onto a Pi Zero 2 W which I’m running Forgejo on. Super simple to set up, imported all my old items from Pocket, and got it running locally on a custom domain with ssl certificate.

Readeck running locally with all of my pocket bookmarks imported.It's showing tiles for each of the unread bookmarks (16 of them)

I found my old Sandisk Clip Jam. So loaded it up with some Electric Callboy and dancing along

A small mp3 player about the length of a thumb. On its display it’s showing the current track playing (Tekkno Train). On the right side there are headphones plugged in

Listening to Yellow Paint by @mattstagraham.bsky.social on my iPod and having a fucking amazing time. There’s streaming options as well, so no excuse, go check this out

I love this bit of their site. If this doesn’t scream “scam” I don’t what would, short of actually screaming it

My mustard seeds are getting to the point where I might need to plant them outside rather than eat them

The plan was to take down the kale, but it bolted and then these lovely ladies started enjoying it, so it’s starting for now

Print 3 was a success. The 1mm extra made all the difference I hoped it would. I’m now looking for what to design and print next 😂

Okay, attempt number 3 at doing a #3DPrint of this. 1 was okay but the clip wasn't quite big enough and was a little too high. 2 was... well lets not talk about 2. So 3 is where I hear it's at these days

3D design for a clip to go over a kitchen trolley. It has a rectangular shape at the back which is where it clip over, with a triangular end which sticks out so it "clips" on. The front extends out with a raised section at the front to prevent things from sliding off

I've been planning on doing this for a couple of weeks now, but finally gotten #Forgejo up and running on a #RaspberryPi Zero 2 W locally. So now I have my own Git server 😃

Candle making clean up, or Smurf murder crime scene. You decide
