Recently a friend got on some new meds that made them much more chilled out, but to the point that they're procrastinating tedious and boring (but important) tasks, and it made me think about how much of my productivity is just white hot free-floating anxiety.

The front of a bar, slightly occluded by a tree with new leaves on the branches.
A red awning has the name of the bar written in white lettering: "The Hairy Canary".
Above it there's another sign with the name, in more traditional English pub lettering.

It's been 10 years since I last set foot in this place.
Nothing's changed. Truly is home away from home.

A TV in front of a window with exposed brick around it.
On the tv is an old school teletext display, showing beer checkins through Untappd

A 2-shelf cupboard, with a glass shelf. On the top shelf there's a set of green-glowing glassware, made with uranium glass. The bottom shelf has random trinkets.

Looks like there's a small collection of uranium glass trinkets in Bruges @astrokatie.com . Worth a trip to pick up?

A graph of RAM (DDR5-6000 2X32G) module price over time. It's stable around $200 from the left of the graph (jan 2024) until sept 2025. Since the price is accelerating upwards, and is currently at $700.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a prideful person. But I get my pride from odd places

And yes IPTables was an oopsy whoopsy fucking mistake.
