Our leatherback nest hatched overnight! it’s the first successful leatherback nest here since 2007. Most of them crawled out of the nest, but we found 3 stragglers and got them to the water https://i.imgur.com/QZIp39P.mp4

After upgrading my telescope gear we had the Not Actually Blue Moon, and I posted in my local community page for anyone who was keen to come have a look. It was a hit, so I decided I'd try do a monthly night just to share something I love, and before I know it I got contacted by one of the distributors to offer more gear for people to enjoy. How cool is that?!

That is super cool. My wife loves her cheap telescope. We keep meaning to get out for one of those stargazing nights in one of the parks.

A little while back I kind of accidentally invented a system that has had some quite positive effects. I have a bunch of very broad categories e.g. - Fitness - Survival Chores e.g doing the dishes - Long Term Chores like cleaning the oven - Garden - Passive relaxation - Hobby or Project relaxation - Life Admin - Reservist Admin On any normal day, I try and do four items. Including the relaxation is important because when you blob out and don't do much, hey you've completed a quarter of your goals and are now relaxed enough to do something else! I've been doing it about a month and I find that I feel less like I'm treading water, and I've got a few things done ahead of time. If I'm feeling tired I just find really simple things to do, and If I have lots of energy I do some extra. Generally it has been quite positive not only in getting things done, but also in reframing what I have done to realize that I am achieving things that I want to. It's also been quite a lot easier to stick to than I thought. Jaguars! fucked around with this message at 08:22 on Oct 2, 2023 |

Here's something super awesome. I posted in my local neighborhood page about hosting a stargazing evening. We wound up with a whole bunch of people coming and going, and 6 or 7 telescopes set up!! Including an absolute monster of a 16" that a guy had custom built. What an amazing evening!

Had Sony headphones that finally broke too much for duct tape to fix & was relying on Amazon basic fitness headphones that liked to switch to deafening mode without warning, so got wirecutter recommended earbuds at a reasonable price & holy cow that’s an upgrade, I’m late to the party but fun to pop them out of the case and they’re already on without having to fiddle with holding down an on button.

The new wireless earbuds (all the brands) have come a long way from just a few years ago. I love wearing mine when shopping for noise cancellation.

Currently sitting in a lodge in Shenandoah national park, sipping a coffee next to a crackling fireplace. Got here in the afternoon yesterday, hit up Hawksbill summit and Dark Hollow Falls before going to hang out at the taproom in Big Meadows’ lodge. Hawksbill: 2 steps of Dark Hollow Falls:

It really is, and it’s more or less a day trip if you live in northern VA. If you’re a veteran, you can pick up one of the Inter-Agency passes that waives your entrance fee at various federal recreation areas. The card says it’s good for sites belonging to: NPS Fish/Wildlife Service Bureau of Land Management (the other BLM ) Forest Service Army corps of engineers And the Bureau of Reclamation (idk who this even is, but they’re on the card). Covers entry fees, but not anything else (not activities, camp sites, etc). Shenandoah is normally $30 for a week-long pass (for one vehicle), but the inter-agency pass got me in for free We gently caress up a lot of things in the US, but the National Park System is one of the best ideas we’ve ever had. It has the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever come across, and any day spent in any of the national parks is not a wasted day.

Got around to rewatching Andy Daly’s Review, still amazing & I like the attention to continuity & how James Urbaniak is nudging him to ruin his life. Picking up details like how from the start Daly is out of pocket for all expenses but never questions it even when he’s paying $200k for space tickets or $40k for a five minute cameo. Pancakes Divorce Pancakes is one of the greatest tv eps of all time. Also got around to watching the Onion’s Porkin Across America & that was also great and feels like a Review prequel.

The new RoboCop documentary is incredibly good, when I heard about it I thought it was going to be fans wandering old sets but they got interviews with everyone from the director to main actors and all the staff with tons of new info I didn't know. It's so cool hearing about themes and production stories from Verhoeven, along with absurd trivia like how they called the junior executive back for reshoots just to spend an entire day having squibs go off on his body, or how the SWAT commander was supposed to be two roles but an actor in one of the roles came to Dallas two days early and impressed them enough they gave him both parts. The whole doc is on prime.

We’ve got an absolutely unflappable ( ) killdeer that laid a nest right by our office! 🥺 Turtle pics are a few months away! Nesting season hasn’t started yet. Our turtle patrols start next week, first nest expected mid-May, first hatches expected somewhere around the 4th of July.

Spending the week in Edinburgh for work, which is probably my favorite city to be in since my wife first brought me here. Seriously, I loving love it here. It's very for me this time since the last time I was here, I was on the verge of changing careers, and was scared but confident it was what I needed to do. I'm happy poo poo worked out the way it did.
