Living in the #wetlands of #Polesia (#Polesie in Polish) in #EasternPoland. Surrounded by #bogs and #forests, trying not to fuck up surrounding nature too much.
Taking care of a small pack of #dogs (most of them rescue dogs) – #IdąPsięta.
#RuralBroadband provider by accident. Starting a small #LoRaWAN project to monitor our wetlands. Coding, mostly in #Python. Luddite.
#Atheist. I don't believe in #science – science is our defence against belief.
Fuck nazis.
I check facts before I toot.
I sometimes toot in Polish.

Today's #RuralBroadband installation. They've been very patient, they didn't yap at us. It was worth it. They had 2 Mbps DL in the morning, 20 Mbps now. Not bad for a remote rural location surrounded by trees.
All those dogs, and one cat, are strays that came to this place and were not kicked out, but found a warm welcome.
Our #wetlands are drying out. Only a few days ago this meadow was partially covered with water. The white patches in the picture were green algae, growing in flooded spaces between clumps of tall grass.
A small dog for scale.
A great place to leave trash on pickup day.
Usually the trash truck comes to our place, about a kilometre further down the road, but the road is very muddy now, and a large truck stuck on it would block our only way to the world. And the truck drivers are very happy – this saves them about half an hour, and I'm happy to help them a bit in their hard work. Neighbours aren't complaining yet that I make them lazy, but they will.
On many Polesian roads soft shoulders have been replaced with wet shoulders, to make driving more exciting.
Common morel, Morchella esculenta. Reportedly delicious, but a protected species in Polish forests.
Evolution. An ancient aquatic tractor decided to come out of the primordial bog and conquer the land.
Ewolucja. Starożytny traktor postanowił wyjść z prabagna i podbić ląd.
Looks like this would make a perfect #smoothie, but Masza just sniffed it and walked away.
Young Urtica dioica (stinging nettle) and Oxalis acetosella (wood sorrel)
I had some suspicions, and when I turned it upside down, it was obvious. It's more difficult for you, because you can't touch it. And you don't know the context...
Who would have thought this old rug still has perfectly white sharp teeth.
Billions of years of evolution to create this wonderful clump of #moss and then some dinosaur flew by and shat on it.
Geoportal padł. No to nici z pracy, będę zmuszony trochę poodpoczywać.
It's nice to have a lawn that doesn't need mowing. It could use some more moss, though.
Taking the dogs for a swim in in the forest.
Now Masza will smell of mud, and so will our bed.
Trying to connect to Mastodon. Or maybe a dragon. Doesn't matter. Any connection will be fine in this radio desert.
