Is it my Friday brain or did Jira roll out a new design for their statuses and labels?
New bike weekend 🤩 Since not living in the city anymore I started taking the car to do just about anything, mostly because I didn't have a bike fit for short quick trips - this should change that 😃 (If you've have said my first Canyon would be electric and this frame I would have believed it 😅)
Couldn't make it to #RW to watch @riseagainstmusic.bsky.social but catching it on the live stream while sitting on the sun at home ain't half bad either :)
So hot, if you wrote Game of Thrones now they'd say "summer is coming"

Om meerdere redenen. 1) Men spreekt over ‘de wil vh volk’ - nu is ie wel belangrijk - maar het artikel gaat er volledig aan voorbij dat er bij de vorige regering weldegelijk een meerderheid was bij de partijen.

Trying to get back to blogging, just writing shorter stuff that's on my mind - Today's post is about reconnecting with old friends :) jan.henckens.be/blog/2026-06...
