Last night I read Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow ahead of the movie this weekend and - wow! It's FANTASTIC! Good writing and really, really good art. DC Universe Unlimited has most of the issues for free, I think?

A rare bird in Okinawa

This is (I think) a Malayan Night Heron, found in a parking lot in Ishigaki City in Okinawa. It was super chill, but didn't let us approach, hence the weird digital zoom here!

My wife did not appreciate my "did it all for the gnocchi" joke, ama

Trans rights are human rights, now and always

Hello fellow kids, I have made a meme

From the latest "Don't worry about the Vase". Something to remember.

Unfortunate Play button placement on this one.

This is so damning - Apple used its copywriting prowess to make the web itself sound unsafe www.theverge.com/apple/659296...

This was taken using a "Kurosawa Tribute" simulation I found on Reddit. The Nothing Phone 3a Pro is a neat device.

It's been a while since I was last walking regularly and now I'm trying to rebuild the habit and get some fitness back. I found this great path at the back of a tiny park this morning. The Nothing 3a Pro camera isn't bad, and the custom film simulations are pretty neat.

So yeah, today is going pretty good
