Eldest daughter (12yo) has some friends staying over and they’re chattering excitedly about which Coldplay albums they like the most.

Shipping notification from Signal Sounds to say that my Pamela's Pro Workout is on the way. Unreasonably excited about this! #Eurorack

I like blue cheese and I cannot lie

Mostly because my breath stinks afterwards

So yeah, I bought a guitar pedal. But no, I’m not doing anything with the guitar these days. I only bought the BOSS Multi Overtone pedal because it’s called MO-2. I am that vain.

The death of Kurt Cobain when I was 16 was probably my first exposure to mental health issues. I saw a musical hero take his own life and I needed to know why. What I learned became the basis for dealing with my own mental health issues, and probably made the difference between me asking for health and taking my own life.

I still wish he’d stuck around, though.

I see we’re at the point where third-party Twitter clients are getting “sure can’t you just…” advice.

Basically can’t wait to buy all of the new Mastodon clients. I’ve long used Twitterrific, and I hope it comes to Mastodon in some form, but I’ll definitely buy a bunch of them to give them a proper kick of the tyres and to say thanks to the developers for taking the risk on this platform.

Does it crash? #mammoth

I’m not arrogant enough to turn this into a “they should make it easier to tell that a filter is active. This is a UX issue”. This was all me!

Nevermind! Apparently I had a filter for media posts only on my home timeline. That’s a relief!

And this post isn’t showing in my timeline. Though it does if I view my own posts. I also got a reply to an earlier post, but am not seeing anything in the mentions view. Might need to use Metatext or Mammoth for a while.

Anyone else notice #Ivory missing posts from their timeline? Noticed this evening that one of my own posts (made through Ivory) wasn’t visible. Had a look in Metatext and on my instance web app, and could see it in both. Then noticed other posts from my timeline that weren’t showing in Ivory either. That said, they were there if I went to the federated timeline in Ivory.

Has it always been this hard to get a Scales by Intellijel, or is it a recent shortage? Seems like nearly every Intellijel module is out of stock these days too. #Eurorack

Just had an interesting thought about using a Z80 processor to make some sort of Eurorack module.

Holy shit. Ballycastle Harbour is absolutely freezing today.

2022 is the year we bought a house in Ballycastle and get to enjoy views like this whenever we want. I really can’t complain.

I will never not bawl my eyes out when hearing Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová perform Falling Slowly. It’s like raw emotion in a song.
