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.

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

catsitting my friends cat (at my place), it’s only been a few days but they’re already consistently RUNNING after me when I say “tststs let’s go to bed!” and they hop up and cuddle with me until we both fall asleep absolute GOOD

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."

what third places do you do frequently? (looking for ideas for myself!) - bonus points for - possible alone - doesn’t require spending money - not planned/scheduled - european/swedish/stockholm relevant

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!
