Feeling melancholic today, regarding the requirement to stay in Finland quite a lot each year. 🙁 Fantasizing about hanging out as a free person, just loitering around the yet-unvisited parts of the Nordics, experiencing the places; yet I am not so free. 🪽🥀

I figured what it is about strength training, rock-climbing, skateboarding that appeals to me, and what about running, swimming makes them seem so boring: it's about difficulty-progression. At all times, the nice activities have a way for me to feel challenged.
We talked about some ~kinks and our psychologies of sex some days ago. Today I timidly and carefully propositioned her for sex over text. She timidly but abruptly sexted me in return. We are nevertheless unlikely to have sex. ⚫ (Disclaimer: I've somehow had sex with her before.)
It's getting a bit dark at midnight nowadays. Summer is so over. 🍂
I went to a birthday gathering, ate rye bread and cheese, and then mogged the room in doing pull-ups. 🧀

I bought this keyboard in 1998 and it has been my daily driver for the last 28 years. After nearly three decades of service the right shift key has failed. No amount of cleaning will seemingly revive it. I guess it's time to pick up one of those circuit pens and get to drawing some new traces.
I'm asking my parents to rent a Hetzner server for me to host a blog, and nobody can stop my friends from subscribing via RSS without gutting the entire internet. 🚲
The thing about social media age restrictions is that it treats today’s internet as an inevitability we all just have to deal with. The internet (and the WORLD) wasn’t like this until like four dudes were allowed to own & monetize as much tech real estate as they wanted. Fix THAT problem.
folks, don't use claude for slides. the style's immediately recognizable, it looks good, but it slides right over people's brains. in an era where sounding professional doesn't cost nothing to nobody, just some tokens, we're entirely free to be non-professional . embrace dreamcore wordart or smth
在香港,家居監控鏡頭越來越普遍,尤其是在有老人或小孩的家庭中。數據公司Statista的估算,2026年全港有超過46萬戶家庭在使用智能家居監控鏡頭。在家工作的外傭,難免一同成為監控鏡頭的拍攝對象,更有僱主用鏡頭來管理外傭的工作。 多數外傭並不反對家中裝設鏡頭,但真正令她們感到壓力的,是被監視帶來的不信任感。菲傭Eliza說,她不介意有鏡頭,卻不喜歡這種「被懷疑」的感受。有一次,她獨自在家打掃時,鏡頭突然轉向她並傳出僱主聲音,讓她意識到,鏡頭不只是看孩子,也在看自己。
If you see Nat, ACT & NZF MPs at Matariki events you might want to ask them why they are there given their ongoing work to undermine Te Tiriti and remove public use of te Reo Māori, Māori representation, etc. There’s a word for people who turn up to photo ops for something they oppose: Hypocrite.
Wonderful news: I have acquired *another* computer. 👍 It would be a little boost to get all my other computers fixed.
Yeah... Well why is it hard, huh? Why is it hard? Because, faced with the task of closing 60 tabs, by the time I made it to even just tab #4, already I triggered my browser into a half-minute freeze, because of software issues on my computer. My IT is *that* behind in terms of maintenance. 🤦
Getting my reps in -- "expressing desire" is not the same thing as "asking for something", and it [expressing desire] is so, so difficult. As with training anything, the only thing I need to do is "get my reps in" 🏋️, but I'm so, so weak in this...
Celebrated Jāņi (midsummer) in Latvia this year! Bonfires and dancing till dawn, flower and oak wreaths, songs about Saule, the sun goddess, that are older than the churches. The Baltics hold a surviving piece of old Europe in living tradition.

She said she hasn't been touched like that in a long time, maybe months. I said that merely knowing that she's out there somewhere, despite her lack of physical presence with me, already makes me feel noticeably better in my life. 🎭🎐
The move is part of a raft of measures aimed at improving gender equality within the armed forces.

With the "your cells in your body lasts 7 years on average", even with extended timelines of ~15 years for muscle cells -- the last atom from China back in the day has probably left my body by now. 🎭🎐
It also helps to explain why a modern Finnish infantry platoon has about three times as many officers as most militaries. Partly because the default command expected of a Finnish military leader is "Follow me!". And that tends to lead to a lot of officer casualties.
Not sure why I haven't tweeted this before: the anxiety about LLMs "being life" or whatever, is immediately and significantly addressed, upon thinking about things from an entropy angle. 🌱
As a writer I can only aspire to create a single sentence this dense with implied horror
