Thank you!

Thank you!

Nope, I wish I could get to their level someday

I feel you friend

I had the same problem with a solar eclipse that happened recently. I drive about 800 miles and then slept through it.

It was raining sideways for me most of the day, and hailing off and on as well. I thought I was going to miss it like most other astronomical events that happen.

The rain about an hour before it started and picked back up just before it’s peak but I was happy to see what I did.

Most of the time I just see clouds for cool events.

Hopefully for the next cool astronomical event you’ll be able to catch it. I’ve been trying to get a specific astro photo for 2 years now because things keep going wrong; one year was a forest fire, the other it was raining. I’m going to try again this year but I’m not holding my breath.

Like maybe cut those executive salaries down a significant amount to start Mozilla because holy shit does Mozilla pay it’s executives a lot vs how much the company makes.

NGL I’d love this too

Unfortunately I have no recommendations as mine have been primarily physical journals

It’s anti-authoritarian

Did you say if I’m lucky a free lunch?

starts running up stairs

With how things have been going lately I’m fully expecting to see political opposition being jailed or worse by 2026 if we can’t stop this madness before then.

Not to mention the amount of election shenanigans that are going to happen with trump’s admin all up in the FEC’s business.

That’s one hella haunting vibe

Destroy the USA any% run

Ideally? Impeachment

Likely? A sternly written letter

Edit: I say this but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to be wishing my congressman grows a spine. I’ll also be reaching out as well.

Never abandon hope, that’s what they want.

At this rate?

Probably next Tuesday.

Republicans and hypocrisy, like 2 peas in a pod.

Though Republicans don’t care at all about hypocrisy from other Republicans.

It’s been a busy week for me.

I modded a camera to be full spectrum and I also modded an old tank lens to work on the camera and it’s been a treat to work with so far.

I’m also doing a photoshoot for a local screamo band’s album art and promo material next Saturday. I can’t talk too much about it yet but what I can say is that I’m definitely sharing the work on my socials afterwards.

I made a Pixelfed account to share my work so that I can be more seperated from the cancer that is Meta.

How about you?

Especially given the “held indefinitely without trial” part

“You’re obviously a migrant with comments like that!” Straight to Guantanamo.

Personally I’ve got a Panasonic Lumix G9, I had a G85 until I decided to buy the G9.

NGL I kinda miss the G85 as it was smaller and also had a panoramic mode that the G9 doesn’t have. It’s also lighter than the G9.

Is the G9 a good camera? Yes it really is.

Do I haul it everywhere for all of my adventures? Also yes.

Was it expensive? So much yes.

The G85 does a lot of what the G9 does, can fit the same lenses, is lighter, is smaller, and is a lot cheaper. Yes the G9 has a higher resolution than the G85 but honestly the G85 is quite pleasant to use.

Plus on the Micro 4/3 system the lenses are a lot cheaper than other systems and you can adapt a lot of lenses to it quite easily.

I’ve only had issues on days when I swap my aligners but even my friends have a hard time those days lol

10/10 highly recommended

I also dig their keyboard, I just wish it supported like searching for gifs to put directly into messenger apps.

8 years on an internal combustion engine is nothing if you preventative maintenance properly.

My newest car is 18 years old and the only thing wrong at the moment is the seals around 2 of the windows is finally leaking. All the work I’ve done is preventative maintenance and it’s got about 180k miles on it. The previous owner did the same. I put about 20k miles a year on it since I bought it.

My other car is 25 years old and it’s basically the same story except it’s passing 200k miles soon, and I’m the 4th owner. And the previous owners neglected the hell out of the poor thing. I’ve only put about 15k miles on this one.

I’m going to drive them until I can’t fix them.
