Does anybody have tips for good flannel shirts? I love the monochrome ones from Patagonia (this year they don’t have a model that is monochrome), but maybe someone has a brand they love that I don’t know about?

I graduated to the next bigger shirt size. Which also means that I need to invest in my wardrobe. There is just no hiding that fact anymore.

It was naive to think that the economic situation would not make a meaningful difference. I am prepared for a hard winter. But it might, it will get harder. As Ingeborg Bachmann so aptly said: “Es kommen härtere Tage” (There will be harder days).

twitterisgoinggreat.com finally took over the autocomplete spot of twitter itself. I’m not sad for twitter as a platform. It seemed like an attempt in solving an unsolvable moderation problem (that is: you can’t solve moderation, you can only manage it).

But it makes me sad and angry how employees are treated. I hate that we live in the era of the billionaire. And I feel weirdly proud of being a European citizen in which this shit could’ve never happened in this way.

Games

Previously. (Media Tracking)

If there would be a bookshelves feature for games then the “currently playing” shelf would include Dead Cells. Bought it on a whim the other day, I have been playing it the whole weekend on my MacBook Air through steam using my xbox one controller. Easy to pick up, hard to put down.

Forward. (Dead Cells)

Maybe it’s because I post more, maybe because I have followed more people recently, maybe because more people spend time away from twitter, maybe it’s the activitypub/mastodon integration: In any case I really enjoy my somewhat more active timeline recently.

MicroMonday

My MicroMonday this week goes to @Miraz who lives in New Zealand. I love the little slices of life we get when she posts a photo of her life and the nature that surrounds her. She is also helpful (see @custom), thoughtful and a great treasure to have in any micro.blog timeline.

At least I’m not going to sweat anytime soon.
