schrödinger's station. which station you're at depends on which line you observe your location from. (the signs for the red line are swapped! the one located at slussen says you're in gamla stan, the one in galma stan says you're at slussen)
two subway signs. the red line one has the "you are here" dot at gamla stan, the green line one has it at slussentwo subway signs. the red line one has the "you are here" dot at slussen, the green line one has it at gamla stan

100 years ago, you could have a relationship with a computer. today, you can have a relationship with a computer. these are *very different*

i feel so silly for taking so long in life to realize that cooking is just vibes. y'all, just making sure you know, you don't need a recipe for things. grocery stores are idea walls. just pick stuff at random and shove it together, it's fine, there are no predefined "valid" combinations.

my trusty decade-old focusrite 2i2 is finally dying :c I'm so sad touching the monitor volume knob is extremely crackly, the left/right volumes rapidly independently jump around on a light touch, kinda have to prod at it until I hit a magic point where left/right is balanced

the fact that Freya consistently and casually drops the name of neighborhood cats in alt text is one of the best things about her cat photography :3 like, hello Morris! Freya knows your name because She’s Just Like That!

I just got home from an extremely emotionally intense and activity packed trip to berlin for ffxiv fanfest, and I’m amazed at how *quiet* the sensations of home are… a shower is smooth, water isn’t funky and tastes like water, bed is just bed. I underappreciate familiarity allowing a quiet brain.

visited leiden observatory, the relative sizes of the logbooks of 1941-44 are... stark
a large wall/bookcase of many thick plain white books, each labeled with a year (most in the image are around the early 1900s)the books for 1939-1948. 1941 and 1942 are quite thin in comparison to 1940 or 1946, and 1943-1944 have been merged into a single, tiny book. 1945 begins to get bigger again but is still fairly small.

recently I've been swapping my work hours from 9-5 to 7-3, and now when I get home I'm like "woah there's so much left of the day, must mean I have lots of mental energy left, I can get some work done on personal projects!" before my brain absolutely farts out because I've worked the same hours

incognito window on the left, regular window on the right i just want answers. a nice, exact answer. with the widget google already programmed, that functions perfectly fine. :(
a google search for "sunset stockholm", showing an exact answer of 19:40a google search for "sunset stockholm", with the results being an "AI Overview" saying "As of early April 2026, sunset in Stockholm occurs around 7:30 PM to 7:50 PM local time, with daylight increasing rapidly."

here's a little guide!
Chart showing internal angles of polygons to determine whether a point is convex (curving inwards), reflex (curving outwards), collinear (not curving at all) or if it's topological emergency ("curving" straight back from where it came, along its own line)

this winter, I decided to be awake for all daylight hours (which practically meant waking up when the sun rises). I've been really enjoying it, feels super nice to catch all of the limited swedish winter sun!

some open-source work I'm doing has me joining some IRC rooms, and I'm realizing how much I missed this... no "X is typing" notifications, no reactions, no read markers, no "away" indicators, I can just be cozy and comfy and not have to be careful about every keypress I make being visible to others

does anyone else get semantically relevant full word typos when typing on a keyboard? as in, I fully intended to write "more", I felt my brain focus on the "m" to start the word, but when actually typing, it felt... off... like I pressed "m" too late... and after blinking, turns out I wrote "some"
