I made a big interactive tech tree of technological history! Here are some screenshots

the other day the CEO of the company I work at called me a "semi-intellectual internet personality" which I guess is pretty accurate? (gotta drop the "semi" at some point though!)

I have like 6 ingredients in my kitchen but it was enough to spontaneously decide to make the recently viral Polish dish, pasta with strawberry (makaron z truskawkami)! it's actually pretty good!

new on the Roots of Progress fellowship page!

not a fan of the fact that this gym's "platinum" plan is the only one that is colored in gold 🙃 especially since there's an even higher plan that *could* be the platinum above the gold plan!

Rue barrée (road closed)

I have way too much sitting space lol. but at least my new place is starting to look cozy *and* nice to work in!

quirky visit of the day: the Cyclorama of Jerusalem, a 110×14m circular painting from the 1890s depicting Jerusalem at the time of the crucifixion. The virtual reality of the time! As visitors Mr. and Mrs. D. Johnston wrote in 1957: "Better than the one in Waterloo, Belgium"

one of the sad things about a breakup is that I don't have a default person to share random pics I take with anyway here's a pretty cloud over Montreal taken from near my place yesterday

Rare 2020s map containing phantom islands, the non-existent Aurora Islands (between the Falklands and South Georgia)

I wish there were another subreddit than BuyItForLife for finding quality goods to buy, I couldn't care less about the fact I may have to throw away my toaster 8 years from now because it may be hard to get replacement parts lol

wondering how likely it is that I'll move to the Bay Area in the next year now that I'm single and consequently wondering how much money I should put in making my new apartment really nice

this blanket on a beach on one of the mac's default wallpapers looks like a decoy folder
