Made a “Negroni” with equal parts gin, Campari, and this Icelandic krækiberja liqueur, along with a dash of orange bitters. Flavors worked but it was a bit heavy. If I make it again I’ll go heavier on the gin instead of using equal parts.

Having some Indian food in Reykjavík and I have to say, it is very, very good.

Panoramic of Reykjavík.

Last day in Reykjavík (already). Couldn’t ask for a nicer one.

@onefootiniceland.bsky.social Made it over here today. Had the ísbjörn but they didn’t have the chocolate bar you mentioned. The ice cream was great, though!

I’ve driven through Selfoss a few times but never stopped. Today I spent the morning walking around town and had lunch there. Here’s a video of the Ölfusá river. It runs about 14 miles and is formed from the combining of the Sogið and Hvítá rivers north of Selfoss. #Iceland

Started this morning around Skipholt and Nóatún, where I’m staying. Walked to the University, then out to Grótta island, where I am now. You can clearly see Akranes and, though my camera couldn’t pick it up, Snæfellsnes, beyond. #Iceland

Always get a lot of walking done in Reykjavík. On mornings like this it’s no wonder.

Came across this at the bookstore today. Just started it, but so far very interesting. #Iceland

First stop on my trip to Reykjavík. Never came here on prior trips.

Ég ætla að fara til íslands 27 Apríl.

The new Sammale is solid. Black metal tendencies, a bit on the slower side, with traditional influences. Worth a listen.

Gouge away, you can gouge away…

Looking forward to final rulings in the U.S. regarding whether AI training is, per se, copyright infringement, if for no other reason than to cut down on the number of people on social media confidently providing the answer under U.S law as though it has already been decided.

Just finished Woolf’s The Years. Not a five star for me, though I liked it. I rank it ahead of Orlando, which has been my least favorite so far.

End of day vibes.

Okay, I wrote a longer thing about @durbin.senate.gov, @amyklobuchar.com, @klobuchar.senate.gov, @whitehouse.senate.gov, @blumenthal.senate.gov apparently wanting to hand Donald Trump a huge weapon with which to censor online speech. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/21/d...
