I bought a Xteink reader that magnetises to the back of my phone, so rather than doom scroll/go on whatever service, I am inclined to just pick up the reader instead. It's been honestly a breathe of fresh air mentally and I'm enjoying reading other media.

With you on this one Scott - not really a fun time at the moment. Unsure how to even make it better

This is so brutally real - hope your new role makes you happier in a world where everything seems gloomier.

I had cold fingers last night - and I was happy for it. Bit of relief!

How anyone has been productive in this heat is mind boggling. Feel like 70% of my day is just drinking water and having cold showers.

I also used to get a lot of recommendations on Twitter, but left when it became X and haven't found the same expanse of community on here. Lot of feels going on today.

Really feeling the hit to freelancing at the moment. A lot of leads (smaller businesses) have dried up fast, as they just now go for some generated site they just run through a site builder. I don't like AI's impact on the world and seeing contract work require it. Not sure what to do anymore.

Ah I have a KB/M wired up to the PS5 for shooters/rts/sim games.

And here I am hating my gaming PC, because to play some of my favourite games I have to boot into Windows, which is a bit shit right now. I love my PS5 for ease, and my switch only gets mileage for exclusives

Handed a couple of projects over to clients, working on my website, and prepping for Download Fest. Looking to be a good week so far!

Pokopia was great. Haven't looked in to bond, do you recommend? Might be one for me to pick up later.

Baking bread was an absolute passion for me, but I cannot eat gluten / yeast anymore - so risen bread just doesn't exist in my life. Envious!

It looks good fun, so does the new God of War and Ill and Until Dawn and a few others. Overall pretty happy with the new announcements!

Anyone want to chip-in on some farm land and go live there and care for animals and grow food?

When working with React don't forget that buttons/anchors don't exist and to make everything a div with an on-click event. That sounds top-notch. (this is sarcasm, please don't do this).

The AI "boom" has made me go out of my way to find tools that having nothing to do with Microslop/Google/ai bros. - Moved to Linux for my gaming PC. - Stopped using Google for emails/work and private. - Switching off GitHub (it's down 90% anyway). - Self-hosting analytics/uptime/etc.

Does anyone have any recommendations for freelance PPC/Marketing advisors for a small business? New client looking to help guide their business and needing someone that can help with ad campaigns.

I like darktable for organising. I’m still a darkroom user for editing though - although that’s cos I haven’t found anything to replace it

Didn't get to stick around after @heypresents.com but was lovely to see everyone and meet new people. What a last one! #AllDayHey

Enjoying the **last** #AllDayHey. The biggest thing I get from events, that I can't get from anywhere else: people who care about the things I care about. I'm always nervous attending, worrying I'll be alone, and it never goes that way. But it's always okay. See you at the next event, right?

As a fellow introvert, Fiona hits it right on the mark. #AllDayHey

Watching @philhawksworth.dev somehow pivot different biscuits into talks is an art form (or pure winging it). #AllDayHey

I think I've developed too many hobbies, I don't seem to have enough time for them. In the last year I've added Warhammer and 3D printing.

My music playlists are so jarring sometimes, listening to some heavy screamo song followed by a soundtrack from a musical. Both absolute bangers.

Been having a load of fun with the new Diablo 4 expansion over the last few days. Action RPGs tickle my brain.
