Do Brits say 'Gen Zed'?

Boomer moment: something on my computer made a notification sound and I have no idea what or why.

it’s monday

I want to make a website.

Friend told me she bought this at launch, says it's very annoying to clean. I can imagine! They ship it with gloves for installation, which is telling in itself. That's my general problem with glass or mirrored surfaces in decor— they'll never look as nice as the day you bought them.

Signed up for Kagi’s free tier and searched for Traveler’s Notebook’s new 'Love and Trip' release. In the journaling world, we call it TN, so I searched 'TN Love and Trip.' Kagi mostly assumed I was planning a getaway to Tennessee. A few hits were right, but most missed the mark.

Rest Energy, 1980 Marina Abramović and Ulay

I’ve blocked most furry art that sneaks onto my TL, but when it does manage to slip through, it always looks like cursed kid's cereal mascots. Like Tony the Tiger in bondage gear, which I'm almost certain exists.

They took too long to respond, so Mercari released my funds and rated me 5 stars. the-art-of-the-deal.jpg

Utility and efficiency of a thing does not justify its existence.

Buyer responded, claims planner is damaged because leather on spine is creased. Open the schools!

Dinesen floors and tables, made from giant slabs of Douglas Fir.

Update: Item delivered, but no response from buyer. Annoyed.

Verify me now, cowards. Let me bear the cursed sigil. Give me an edit function. @bsky.app

What'd I tell you about those Catholic converts? Nothing but trouble.

No one is more deserving of scorn and contempt than people who take sides in streamer drama.

If your torta isn’t wrapped in the world’s thinnest foil and sweating through a brown paper bag, it's just a sandwhich.

Day 107 - #retrorandom - It's 2018 and I'm messing around with my TRS-80 MC-10, trying to make an image to promote an upcoming quiz night at the museum in Cambridge. I thought it looked gorgeous when paired with this little JVC TV ... 1/2

Anyway, here's my cat seeing her reflection on my lamp.

Don't like this chair at all. They even went with boucle because it's trendy. And by none other than Ola Wihlborg. Disappointing, I really like some of Ola's stuff, like his STOCKHOLM 2017 table lamp, which was re-released last month in an uninspired, powder-coated finish.

This bad test tube chandelier with the gross yellow brass they use. Awful. They probably put a clear bulb in there for styling reasons, but if you don't diffuse light before it hits those glass tubes, this is going to give off really harsh, ugly light unless you dim it way down. What a miss.

The lamps are so bad. What in the Joanna Gaines is going on over here?

IKEA STOCKHOLM 2025 collection is really putting the mid in mid-century. Pretty underwhelming. Just buy vintage IKEA imo.

Oh to be Edgar the Borzoi enjoying a decadent bento arrangement

Sold something through Mercari, they sure ask you for a lot of personal info. Hoping I get my money.

No hot water this morning for my shower. First few minutes in, I felt my soul leave my body. After that, it was quite lovely. Might make a thing of it.

I was recently thinking about the beautiful Sailor Pro Gear Lighthouse I bought last year. I used it for a day and passed it on. As elegant as it was, I really didn't need more than a few minutes to realize that awful Music nib was not for me.

Was told recently how I shouldn't use my beloved em dash anymore else people will think I'm using AI— killing myself.
