Rate my setup (travel video call edition)

An iPad balances precariously on the handle of a large suitcase that’s full of messy luggage. A charge cable is threaded through the handle, perhaps preventing disaster. The iPad faces the viewer, ready for video calling.

I’m on an 8-day e-bike tour from Tokyo to Kyoto. I can’t recommend relearning to ride a bike in Tokyo traffic (😳) but I can recommend the experience!!

There’s a Japanese restaurant in Brisbane, Kodoya, that I’ve been frequenting for… close to 20 years (?!) and they’ve ALWAYS had Kiki’s Delivery Service looping on the tv. 🥰✨

AUSSIES, LOOK AT THIS INCREDIBLE GRAPH 😤 from www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

Home ownership rate by birth cohort and age group, 1947-1951 to 1992-1996
some incredibly clear, graphed data on how much less likely you are to own a home the younger you are.

I saw this in a lift and burst out laughing. The other occupants weren’t as tickled. 😅

A panel from inside a lift, reads “Schindler Lifts Australia Pty. Ltd.” as well as a bunch of other important info.

Multiple daleks positioned outside number 10 Downing St, all with menacing red lights. Overlaid, a social media post reads: "Remember: behind every robot that turns evil is an engineer who specifically installed red LEDs into the eyes just for this occasion"

This liquid glass element gets shorter when I move it to the right, and taller when I move it to the left. As someone with some experience making interactive, playful UI elements - this asymmetry drives me completely insane. 😩

Goddamn, this puzzle. If you know you know. 🥰
