Fun stuff

    Embaixador de Israel agora na SICN: não existe fome em Gaza, e para provar tenho aqui uma foto de carne tirada lá, e que vou mostrar brevemente no meu telemóvel.

    Musa de Inverno.

    A glass of dark beer with a frothy head sits on a bright red surface, featuring a "HUSA" logo.

    So… The thing now on Instagram is spamming by bulk liking my comments, despite being years old, so I eventually click their OF page?… 🙄

    Fully awake… 🙄

    And in topic of small victories this werk: convinced someone to switch from WhatsApp to Signal, and currently the chat app I’m using less often, and candidate to uninstall, is Telegram.

    Another full day in pijamas… Being on a rainy and misty day makes it feel less bad.

    It has been a strange few days, with the Meta owned services slowly moving closer to become X. Another blunt reminder that we must move away from these centralized services, that depend on the whim of their owner, into something more open, more decentralized, more transparent and where the user owns its data. This is very uncomfortable and somehow painful, but means transitioning from X, Facebook, WhatsApp to Mastodon, BlueSky, Signal, etc.

    While I’m still the “old social media”, and kind of active, I’ve been much more present in this more decentralized and privacy conscious side of the internet, and that’s a trend to continue in this weird near future. Except on Signal, because it’s complicated to move people away from WhatsApp, but there’s still hope to change that this year!

    In my mind, and because I’m often out and about during this season, the new year only formally kicks off when I return home. So let’s get this going!

    A regressar de Trás-Os-Montes, mas confuso com uma bola de luz no céu que não sei bem o que é…

    A bright sunset view is seen from inside a car, with road and sky visible through the windshield.

    Not the winter meal you’d be thinking of, but hey, blessed are the modern freezers.

    A grilled sardine is served with potatoes, leafy greens, and tomato slices on a white plate.

    Surpresa! Parece que está nevoeiro no estádio do Nacional..

    You know winter time is coming when you need to get the warmer slippers…

    I know that you’ll find me, there. After the fall…

    Echoes in my head of yesterday’s show of Chelsea Wolfe, already back home…

    A quiet street scene at dusk features illuminated streetlights, a car with headlights on, and a silhouette of a person walking.

    Coisas que se ouvem num daqueles cafés sombrios, que são cada vez mais raros na Baixa do Porto, logo pela manhã:

    • “Então ainda não foi atendido?!", a senhora reformada a achar que se tinham esquecido de mim.
    • “5 pães e um favaios”.

    Hey! Ho! Let’s go!

    A red festival wristband with "AMPLIFEST 2024" printed on it is worn alongside a black beaded bracelet.

    É assim tão complicado para a CP meter os números dos comboios no exterior do Intercidades?…

    Obviamente a cmtv não abdica das coscuvilhices da Maya para cobrir essas coisas na América.

    A publicidade no YouTube está a ficar cada vez maior, sem dar para passar, e começo a ficar cansado do anúncio do Uber Eats do Mourinho…

    Rainy Monday ahead, might mean I’ll keep the pj’s for the whole day… Not something I often do.

    Aaaand the first Christmas posts appear in my timeline… 🙄
