The day will come when Jürgen Klopp fails spectacularly as coach of the German national team, too. And there will be a name for it.

The Kloppocalypse.

What a bloody annoying bitch!

I found this quite entertaining, although it was a little slow to start and it’s really trying hart to be shocking. And I actually found this slightly more funny than terrifying. But it’s a good mix. And the acting was really good!

Loved the ending, which is like the reverse of Romeo and Juliet or something.


Next event: The Haunted on July 24, 2026, 20:00 at Turock, Essen.

The eighth episode of Wonders of Web Weaving is out:
In Episode 8, I chat with Brennan, the author of brennan.day. We talk about, among other things, writing routines, building community in the indie web, "start here" pages on personal websites, and more.
I hope you enjoy the episode!

I’m really not sure what to think about the new Strokes sound … I like the instrumentation and the sizzling distortion – but Julian Casablancas has completely turned into a vocoder, wtf. 😅

Make your own web quizzes!

When I announced that I was open-sourcing a quiz maker earlier this week, I noted that there were several limitations to what I had built. Most importantly, my quiz maker was a Python script, which substantially limits how many people can use it. After writing the blog post...

Unnatural

Content warning: This poem is about the ongoing heat in Europe. I strike an optimistic tone toward the end, but if you would prefer not to read about the heat, I offer you one of the Scottish poems I have written in stead.

Nature’s weary tears fill the air;
invisible, warming.
Relentlessly, days proceed.

Hours pass; Celsius rises.
Midnights: warm like day.
We stay inside.
Blinds closed, water glasses full, cookers off.

Flowers bloom early.
Eyelids weigh; we yearn
for rest that does not come.

Heat ravages the continent.
London is Rome.

Roads reduce to liquid, power lines sag:
infrastructure is under stress.
Headlines depress.

Hope: We come together, reaching
with open eyes.
Her resiliency:
Our future?
