Any ideas for what else I should add? (I already know this will get out of hand quickly … 😂)

Walking

I want to make the most of the sunshine, I thought to myself as I contemplated going on a second walk. I went for a walk earlier today to get groceries. All walks bring my mind space, but meandering on a favourite path feels more conducive to letting my mind wander. I venture...

Mashups

I have had the question “what is the blog equivalent of a mashup?” in the back of my head for a while. Joe’s most recent blog post, “Return to Mashups”, further has me thinking about this question. What does it mean for a blog post – or an entire blog – to be a mashup? My thi...

I’m writing again… it’s been a while.
My favourite sentence of the post so far:

“And naturally, you also want to avoid FART.” ☺️

🎬 Natural Born Killers

Movie poster for “Natural Born Killers”.

Greatly enjoyed this one. The two are just so sweet. So, I loved Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis here. Tommy Lee Jones was great, too. Greatly reminded me of Wild At Heart. Story and proposition is great two. Reminded me partly of Nightcrawler. And it is just overall funny and weird with wild camera work, which reminded me of Climax. But I would’ve enjoyed one more action scene like the one at the diner at the beginning.

🎬 L.A. Confidential

Movie poster for “L.A. Confidential”.

I liked this overall. It’s a wild chase with ever more intrigues and entanglements coming to light. I especially liked Guy Pearce’s character and performance. But I couldn’t fully enjoy this on a first watch, as this was so fast paced and has this rather complex plot (watching in to me non-native English didn’t quite help, either), that I had the constant feeling of having missed something. Luckily they actually explain more and more towards the end, and I could more and more shake that feeling. Still, maybe a candidate for a second watch.

Summer rain

I woke up to the sound of the summer rains; of water falling on the gutters, of the collective sound of raindrops falling on the leaves of trees. Listening closely, the phrase that comes to mind to describe the sound is “white noise,” except this does not capture the essence ...

Museum of the World Wide Web

The Victoria and Albert Museum published a YouTube video highlighting an art project inspired by the question “What would your dream museum look like?” The video — featuring ideas ranging from a museum of soil to a museum of kitchen tables — is well worth a watch. This got m...

Lovely. First task of the day: doing “just” a few small CSS changes in a client project I haven't touched in about 5 years.

Alright…

➜ nvm use

Found '.nvmrc' with version <8.6.0>
N/A: version "v8.6.0" is not yet installed.

I already know where this is going …… 🫠😂

Evening walks

When did I feel the change from the countryside to the town? This question came to mind while I was walking earlier this evening. While walking, I noticed that there was a point at which I felt I was coming back from the countryside into town, but I didn’t know when that mome...

Whiteboards and affirmations

I want to write something! This thought has come to mind a lot lately. I have the energy to go and start writing. But before I do, I ask myself: what do I want to write? Inspiration is hard to find, although I recently realised that the voice saying that I want to write somet...

Howdy! 🤓 How do you all handle native #CSS Nesting at the moment? Are you using it already? And if so, are you just targeting newer browsers that support it? Or are you using PostCSS, for example?

Asking for a friend who has reduced his build process to the max (nothing but a little esbuild script) and is now hesitating to add PostCSS again… 😉

Watched a few highlight videos from the Women’s EURO with my daughter.

Walking

Should I go for a walk? There is always that moment of hesitation. I could stay in, do chores, watch television, and relax. Or I could go outside and walk, maybe even explore. I put on my shoes and headed out without a particular path in mind. I think I was a bit excited to g...

The way I think about a song

Zachary and I are exchanging blog post titles with each other (inspired by kami). I chose the title “What making this by hand means to me” for Zachary; he chose the topic “The way I think about a song” for me. Thank you Zachary for the excellent topic choice. Is there a lyri...
