Read: The Death Sculptor by Chris Carter 📚
Yet another great Robert Hunter story. I’ve never read a series before where every single book is this good, exciting, and unpredictable. Fantastic!
A good example of how much we love to fika here in Sweden. My favorite café is now selling cinnamon bun beanies.
My brother (yes, I’ve told him to move to Micro.blog) has been using AI to colorize old photos. I think the results are great. He keeps the original black and white as the “real photo” and the AI version as a fun extra. It’s him and me in the shot, somewhere in the 70s.
Playing: Stand Back by Kite 🎧
The Swedish band Kite is one of my absolute favorite discoveries in recent years. I love both their sound and their lyrics, and I often recognize myself in their words. That sense of recognition is usually what connects me to a song or an artist.
I spotted a demonstration outside the café window today. Ran out and snapped this shot.
I’ve done a complete redesign of the Blogging Tips & Tools page. It’s been on my to-do list for a long time, and with Bear’s downtime today, I finally decided to get to work. Hope you like it!
The upside of downtime — a positive take on the current technical issues with the Bear blogging platform.
Bear is down for some custom domains, including mine. I’ll take it as a sign that running two blogs was the right choice 😊
Watched: A House of Dynamite (2025) 🍿
I really liked it. It was well-made and had almost a documentary feel. If you enjoyed Kathryn Bigelow’s other films, like The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, you’ll probably like this one too.
My latest Bear experiment: a custom search feature for my blog page. There’s an official version, but I decided to take it a step further, making descriptions searchable and highlighting the searched term. You can even link directly to a search.
