(cat takes my spot when i get up though)

today i’m working on my back. standing desks aren’t just good for standing!

trying out the pro trial of mona for mac, and it’s a nice client! especially now that i have the (temporary) ability to tweak the theme colours.

this week, the kei truck hauled:
- antique bed + mattress
- couch + large cat condo
- dresser, desk, chairs, shelves, misc (helped family move)
- several hundred KG of cement + forms
- corner display hutch

haha wow — the ivy that covers the wall outside is making its way inside!

wish i’d gotten a shot of this raven spreading its wings, but it looked like a badass medieval omen up there

HDMI just feels so bad — the cables always feel loose in their ports yet are difficult to get in, as if somethings going to break if i push too hard. and then they flake out, needing a little wiggle or tilt to start working again. icky.

after years of wanting one, bought a used roli seaboard off a local reverb guy, and it is so fun to mess around with!

can you imagine if notion had a major data loss issue? just had a hiccup where my last month of worklogs weren’t loading on the calendar… and the panic!

maybe i will start to periodically export for peace of mind.

you guys know brain worms are not particularly rare, right? there’s a non-zero chance you yourself have had one, especially if you ever ate food prepared by ppl who ever go to tropical countries. tapeworm and hookworm are super common culprits, but others too

found an old photo of myself from back when we were recording the false heroics “salvation navy” album. i miss that cardigan!
