I've been quite pleased with some of the photos I've taken today, but this is the one that made me laugh. In my attempt to capture the starling and robin together, eating their bugs while studiously ignoring each other, I totally failed to focus on either of them.

Still, nice in-focus blades of grass across the centre there.

Bah.

Found some funky plants today too, as well as the birds and the bees.

So much new life...

“I am so happy to have finally got this shot. It has taken me all winter. I have had so many difficulties; frozen equipment, blurry photos through ice, battery issues, flash placements and flare, clouds(!), cats’n’dogs, wind blowing everything over, night exposure, and the list goes on. So you can imagine my excitement and disbelief this morning when I found this on my card! Thank you beautiful Mrs fox, you get an Oscar.”

Just got the initial demo of the music for current project and WOW; even if it turns out to be a dull game, it'll be a dull game with an amazing soundtrack

“If you can afford to spend billions of dollars on a thing, and smash that thing all to fuck and then giggle childishly as the shattered fragments fall to the ground, you can damned well afford to pay your fair share of taxes.”

It was drawn to my attention that there are machines for washing vegetables and they look excellent fun.

Look!

I'm aware giffing this kills the quality (such as it is) but I can't upload animated webps here.

Better quality / smaller file on my website, to be enjoyed alongside an old skool site with no ads, no pop-ups, no cookies, nothing...

Well, except a load of silly stuff I've made.

Spent the afternoon coding some deceptively fiddly date-handling stuff, it's not often I have to completely rethink my entire approach multiple times and pace around the flat swearing

I've been playing with the Hat aperiodic monotile and I've found a simple decoration that produces nice patterns.

I passed this sign every day as a kid, so I shouldn't be surprised I came up with @scarfolk

why do I support right to repair? simple: i want to upload my own MIDI files to my washing machine to play when it finishes a cycle without voiding my warranty

The 80s would be really confused about how the future turned out if you told them we all have supercomputers in our pockets and they're all running Unix.
"what do you call these amazing machines?!"
"phones"

Another snap from my morning walk.

My happy tree stump and I hope you have a good Friday.

'3 Days Later' by Danny Boyle. A carpenter who works at IKEA is killed. 3 days later, however, he comes back from the dead to wreak havoc, triggering 2000 years of war, persecution, crusades & genocide. His devotees are at once recognised by the carpenter's symbol which they adopt as their talisman: a BILLY bookcase...

Always remember kids, if you're a conscientious copper trader who makes fair deals then in 200 years nobody will remember you, but if you screw over people so much there's an entire room full of complaint tablets about your conduct you'll still be a meme 4000 years on
