Go Team Sanna!

The results of a silly online political quiz, saying that my closest political match is Sanna Marin, former prime minister of Finland

There's only one left in my neighborhood

A view down a side street with trees all around a purple street light casts cooler light on the road and front yard of some houses while a yellow light shines from the side of a house as contrast. The last twinkling of daylight can be seen through the tops of the trees.

Nah, edge cases needing week numbers exist and having the standard accommodate them without confusing the regular format is useful

A screenshot of Wikipedia showing part of the ISO 8601 article with all of the standard format of the current date and time (current as of when I visited the page)

The list begins with the date format in YYYY-mm-DD and ends with the ordinal date of 2026-105

It was the first thing I noticed as well!

Charlotte NC #NoKings

A large crowd of people speaking the length of Forest Ward Park in Charlotte NC, many caring protest signs. This is all under a clear blue sky with one tall building in the background

'tis the sneezon

The roof of a car, shiny black under a heavy dusting of yellow-green pollen. Behind the car you can see some trees and my neighbor's house.

Yes really

A black high wheel bicycle, commonly known as a Penny Farthing, but this is a modern replica. The front wheel is 48" diameter and the rear wheel is tiny. It's resting against a white wall and door.

Gotta say, I did not expect to ever spend Christmas morning sitting on my front porch drinking coffee without a coat on

A sunny morning in Charlotte NC, looking out across a front yard with two old cedar trees in it. I'm the foreground a coffee cup sits on a patio table, latte foam peeking out from the lip

Not to brag, but I'm gonna brag

A blue Hobart A-120, 12 quart stand mixer originally built in 1948 sits on a white countertop with bins of dried red and green peppers behind it. The mixer has been fully rebuilt and restored to working condition.

When I found my current cat (he wandered into my back yard at 6 months old and under 3lbs) I immediately thought he was part Maine Coon. Then I got him tested because I can't see genetics with my own eyes. Turns out I was right (13% MC, 12% NFC) but it could have just as easily gone the other way.

A white cat with orange spots and an orange tail lounges on the kitchen floor as if to say "Paint me like one of your French cats"

On one hand, I want to go ride my bicycle. On the other hand, I get the results of my ankle MRI on Tuesday, which was due to a fall off of said bicycle. What to do, what to do.
