I’ve always done the lighting for setups that are not my own. Or for filming other people that is? Something like that. I’m oddly happy to have a light I can control from my computer now and is magnetic so I’ve just popped it up on the existing curtain rod for myself. https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreidobddc4epf5ddu4yp7tnn3u44k4u5ethln3tsoqglpgh6a4c6hja

Not up for more swimming today but I need some movement and it’s lovely outside. https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreiczvpwha7sk37wofpf7rnssygjyrqokzb6ntnsjo4h2pbvqhq2kp4

Sigh ... guess I need to look into this because of the moss feed. The things I could never have predicted. 😂 https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreic6nrrbpd2tnzpoj7b6io7ursyjbmi3aiu44mxtttq7b3qdzbc2kq

Time to wind down … https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreifhy4zr2yqpdjg4d4labis343bchqzk27yrl2g7wtiews7zxuqyve

So I swam laps, and bought a car-battery which I carried across a parking lot, AND I dug up some things in the yard. If you don’t hear from some time over the next 24 hours for maybe 24 hours I may have destroyed the muscles in my arms.

I suspect there’s a livestream somewhere of something I should have been watching today but I didn’t have the energy for it. I think I was fighting off potential bronchitis yesterday so I spent today letting myself get completely distracted with revamping my desk camera setup. I apparently …

I need to see about creating a feed out of about 3 people’s lists of people. That way I maintain my list in that set but also get the curation of several other people who did almost the same thing (but sometimes add people I’ve missed.)

I don't quite remember what I was trying to accomplish before I spent part of the afternoon vacuuming the broken glass in the driveway & making sure rain (or squirrels or cats?) couldn't get into that vehicle.... RE:
