WTF Zoom...
"REDACTED and I joined a Zoom breakout from the open-plan office and discovered that neither of us could be heard,
while the men on the call came through perfectly. It turned out that Zoom's noise cancellation was filtering out female voices.
It was funny in the moment, but also an example of something I think about quite a lot lately: systems aren't always designed for everyone. And when something doesn't work for us, our instinct can be to adapt ourselves rather than question the system"

I was so focused on the eclipse next year (I’m travelling back to my hometown to watch it) that I didn’t even thought the one this year would be partially visible from the Netherlands. Anyways, I couldn’t get glasses in time so ended up using this.

AI is a real tool being used to extract real labor value from real people without paying them. You don't care about the singularity — you care about the artists, writers, and workers getting strip-mined by capital. You're not anti-technology. You're anti-theft.

Any similarity to reality is pure coincidence.
A “jamón serrano” that doesn’t look like that at all.

We got a new food feeder for Mendel, and it didn’t have a proper recipient for the food, so I made one :D

Some more impressions of Tokyo: - The city is not THAT tall, but is incredibly wide. - It is quite chill for its size, but maybe I have that impression because I came straight from Seoul.

Matcha beer is weird af. It tastes a lot like matcha at the beginning but then it turns into beer. Not my cup of tea but worth trying once.
