I get Stendhal syndrome at great grocery stores. All this food so nicely laid out that I am getting overwhelmed by emotion

You have been kidnapped. You are put into a dark room and you don’t know where and how long you’ve been away.
Suddenly, you hear a sound, something that tells you those lazy kidnappers didn’t even bother to take you away from your home town.
What is that sounds that tells you are close to home?

What can I say? This is my kind of sci-fi ❤️
After watching two episodes of Murderbot diaries, I must say that I am a tiny bit disappointed. It must be the difference of format.
The books make me viscerally feel how they/it feels social anxiety. I guess that kind of magic can’t be expressed on TV
Still, extremely good adaptatiob
Extremely local Finnish post. I’ve determined that my optimal pizza is:
- very thin crust
- minimal amount of toppings
(And needs to be vegan, obviously)
This summer I have had that kind of pizza in Mathildedal at kyläravintola Terho. Question is where in Helsinki I could get that kind of pizza?

The worst thing about a book store: you buy new books like you didn’t have quite a few books at home waiting🥲
The best part of a book store: you get to buy new books 🥰

Summer holiday is for relaxation and realizing you are just your dad with no practical skills.
There are reality shows about fixing cars and there are youtube star car mechanics but are there any kind of shows about ”cLoUd CoNsUltAnTs”? Now tell me Timo
My dad: has a million projects going on. Realises a part is missing and everything is left as it stands. He takes on new project. Repeat
Me: having 104 github repos and dozens of domains waiting for the right day. No, not at all the same
sobs in self-realization
Rainy day, summer flu and I am all out of paper books and all my e-ink devices are not with me. But I need books!
The Finnish edition also contained the short story Compulsory. The story is short for sure but still reveals one important part of the backstory

Yes! More murderbot. Like them I would like to just hide in the closet and enjoy entertainment feeds.
There is something magical about writing that simultaneously entertains me and makes me think how neurospicy mind functions.

Exactly my kind of scifi. Fun, fast and short. Best part is the internal monologue of the main character. Extremely relatable (minus the murder parts)

Along with a dozen Star Trek comics I went through this collection of five mini comics about the Expanse main cast. I wish there was more story here but yes, these are our characters
Ozzy Osbourne was and is the greatest rock star ever for me. Ever since I was twelve and still now. This is one of my favourites from him
Weird thing about ”celebrity X is a horrible person” news is that when you go to the comments you always find that also celebrities Y and Z are awful. Depressing
Not prompted by anything recent, reading about long gone incident involving an actor making fun of someone’s death. I can’t believe some people can’t hide their terribleness even in public. I hope that never happens to me
In retrospect, making screenshots available to normies was a terrible mistake. It could have been a power user only feature forever
Mouse climbed into my shoe at our garden (my feet were not in them but still). I may have not demonstrated my bravest side when that happened
