is SciPy pronounced like "sigh pie", or "skippy"?

this album absolutely slaps BTW, end-to-end bangers somehow manages to be both soothing and energizing at the same time, which is the *exact* vibe I needed this morning I highly recommend it:

fuck it, time to have a long, hot bubble bath, and blast some upbeat music while I'm at it for the ceremonial value: a ritual to mark a clean break, to tell your brain "well that thing's done, it's time to move on to the next thing" I'm going with… Rodrigo Y Gabriela's self-titled album

so I just had to pull an emergency maneuver with a running washing machine when I realized that in my half-awake state I'd somehow managed to put in dish soap instead of laundry sauce how's everyone else's mornings going?

I mean, it's not unpleasant - the chocolate, mint & chili are all really well balanced, none of them overpower the others but "pleasant" also feels like the wrong word? like, it's not intuitively appealing, the id does not immediately crave more it's definitely interesting tho! and that's good too

just tried some chocolate flavored with *checks notes* peppermint and habanero and I gotta say, it's definitely one of the most flavors I've ever tasted

one last post on this subject before I finish off the last of these bad boys when fully ripe, they look... like dates!
A single date sitting on a white surface. It looks like you'd expect a date to - brown, grape-shaped, wrinkly - albeit a bit lighter in color than the most common date varieties.The same date cut in half lengthwise. One half still has the stone in it. The flesh is various shades of brown, from golden through to the color of molasses.

post a meme made by you
The "pocket sand!" scene from King Of The Hill, except I've changed the subtitle to "pocket sandslash!", and added a sandslash (the Pokémon) where the sand was. That dude's got a critter with pretty big claws headed straight for his face, I think he's gonna have a bad time.

Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 30/08/2024
oh it's on
The same bag of fresh dates from the quoted post, but now many of them have ripened, softening and turning golden-brown. The flesh shrinks as they ripen but the skin doesn't, giving them a slightly shriveled, wrinkly appearance, kinda like regular dried dates.

now pondering: I'm trying to vent the heat from my place. I've opened windows at both ends. I have one fan. for maximum efficiency, should I: • run it facing an open window, to push hot air out; • facing away, to pull cool air in; • either would help equally; • not bother, neither would help much?

thought I'd see if any of my neighbors wanted some of these ended up giving a box to one I've basically never spoken to before which turned into us chatting for a bit, and... I think we're friends now? just playing Stardew Valley IRL over here

today's harvest 👇 think I have too much fruit now lmao
Three tupperwares in a row, each one piled high to the brink of overflowing with big juicy blackberries. There's 3 pounds of fruit here, all picked today.

also aww yiss: 𝘱𝘳𝘶𝘯𝘶𝘴 szn gotta be my favorite genus
Three large, deep red cherries and one bright green gage arranged on a light brown plate. The gage & one of the cherries are cut in half, so you can see they're just as vibrant on the inside.

aww yiss
Fresh dates in a brown paper bag. They're smooth, round, golden-colored fruit, similar in appearance to yellow plums. They're a little over an inch across, and in linear bunches around thin woody stems. A couple of them have darker patches that look like bruising, but in fact indicate that they're starting to ripen - when they turn brown they soften & sweeten, at this stage they're crunchy and unappetizing.

The cover art of the Radiohead album The Bends (where the lyrics my quoted post was parodying came from): a grainy close-up photo of the head & shoulders of a CPR practice mannequin, its head back, eyes closed, and mouth open; but I've crudely photoshopped in a lemon-wedge-adorned glass of iced tea, so it kinda looks like the mannequin is drinking from it.

ran out of lemons again, so I'm back on my "iced tea: pomegranate molasses flavor" bullshit
A nonik-style pint glass full of a transluscent burgundy liquid, with ice cubes lurking beneath a thick head of off-white foam. (File photo, from the first time I made this stuff.)

This skyfeed feed builder thing is pretty fun, actually - it's a bit limited, but that just means you gotta get clever with it, makes it kinda feel like a Zachtronics game now I just need an excuse to keep playing with it... anyone got any requests?

say, open question: you know when you've put something off way too long, and you feel guilty about that, but actually doing it would draw attention to how overdue it is, a mortifying prospect, so you still don't do it, which makes the whole situation worse, spiral ad infinitum? or is that just me?

aside, life pro tip: trying to lurk on here, ie browse without generating any notifications, means your only available interactions are mute, block & unfollow and, you may be surprised to hear, it turns out that playing social media on "negative reacts only" mode makes it Even Worse For Your Brain

up next on disney channel: I get to find out what fresh hell accretes in this little box when you don't dare look in it for, how long has it been... oh, like 4½ months 🫠
Bluesky tells me I have "30+" notifications, which is when it stops counting. I'm guessing that's a very low estimate.

I've been fine, just… took a mental health break didn't say anything when I left 'cos I only meant it to be a few days but then that somehow turned into weeks, then months… and by then my crippling social awkwardness had got me hiding in shame over accidentally ghosting all my internet friends ☹️

I'm gonna have to try to talk him out of this shit, ain't I? *that's* gonna be fun, he's never met a tech hype cycle he didn't jump on …maybe I'll ask him how his crypto bag's looking these days - he brushed off my skepticism of that one too, *might* help make the case my judgement's worth heeding

at today's weekly team meeting, the boss was super excited to announce the launch of a new tool, 'cos one of our L2 support guys got an LLM to write it, and that means We're AI Now Yaaay!!! so I looked under the hood and immediately found an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability 🙃

having never watched Steamboat Willie, I figured I'd take the opportunity to finally see what all the fuss was about main impression: dang, that's a lot of cruelty-to-animals-based comedy kinda interesting as an object lesson in how far those mores have shifted archive.org/details/Stea...

got wine drunk & watched Rebel Moon while my christmas feast went down verdict: I wouldn't say it's a "good movie", in particular the dialogue is uhhh... very Zach Snyder, but - I had fun! it's entertaining :) and they get massive bonus points for doing something in a totally new setting for once

specifically - it's a front-loader, and it seems the drum somehow started rubbing against the rubber… seal? gasket? thing at the front, and the spin cycle caused enough friction for… well, I got a faceful of rancid smoke when I opened the door, and there's little bits of rubber all over my clothes
