A selection of things I've been scolded for on here:

- Saying cargo bikes cost too much

- Polling people about whether they write til, 'til, or till

- Saying that too-extensive profile bios on here are like aposematic coloration, but for personality

- Referring to curry spices as curry spices

- Saying I thought the etymology of muckety muck is more interesting than the etymology of pecan

- Saying most computer users are normies and won't want to deal with Linux

- Saying that it's silly to think that using bluesky makes you better than people who use mastodon, or vice versa

- Not agreeing that Tolkien invented the concept of a character arc

- Posting a video of my wind chime made of nitrous tanks without a CW

- Saying maybe the tariffs on China could do some good if it means we buy less cheap junk

- Saying that community college classes are a great bargain

- Posting that the pope said something good about the dangers of AI

「馬」上抬頭

這不是新聞 @index@thisisnot.news

又到陰曆新年了。首先祝大家馬年快樂。吃晚飯去散步,抬起了頭。意外的看到了好多星星。

在搬離馬鞍山來到啟德跑道區後,我以為看不到星星了。

原來還是有的。

應該多抬頭。

我喜歡拍鳥,我的 Loops 帳號大部分都是鳥,我喜歡抬頭看樹上,路燈上,屋苑上的鳥。不過上週才發現發貓貓才更受歡迎。

還是羨慕貓貓。

但我自己也不知道我的處事態度是「抬頭」還是「低頭」。

或者,不用說,其實有時候人生不是只有選擇題,可能是多選題。「抬頭」還是「低頭」我都是有的。

生活總有不如意,但我總是喜歡與不如意對著幹,「失敗了就爬起來,然後在同一處摔倒」。今年也與家人鬧出更多的矛盾。從臘月廿九到現在,家裡仍然火藥味很重。矛盾過後便是自己的頹廢,但是明明不想這樣,卻又一再重演。之前每年都像「未完成的馬畫」迷因那樣最後畫的十分草率。至少,希望這一次,可以把它畫完。

「未完成的馬畫」迷因

新春三日假期,想出去走走但因為家人和家人的朋友假期來港,最終也是在家中玩遊戲與在附近逛逛的程度。雖然在初三的晚上去了蘭桂坊,但也是家人朋友的要求下前往,但最後也是因為酒吧並非他們所想的那樣最終不歡而散。

酒吧名叫「Iron Fairies」。這個酒吧設計倒是十分有特色;照官方網站上所說,這家酒吧是按照澳大利亞的舊礦洞設計的,包廂都是按照類似鐵礦熔爐樣式設計的,充斥著古老而神秘的氛圍;於此同時天花板有上萬隻蝴蝶標本懸掛在半空中,檯面上也擺放著鐵鑄「小仙子」。十分適合打卡,但個人覺得他們的雞尾酒很一般。喜歡派對與社交的人可能會更喜歡這家酒吧。

這周也看完了這個月看書的「任務」。有時候覺得看書這個事情並不是一個任務,但對我這種會突然過度專注、又突然完全放空的人來說,安安靜靜、一個人穩定地閱讀,其實不容易。在這樣情況下,用手機程式記錄看書進度便成為了更適合的方法。我使用的是 iOS,便使用了這一款 Book Tracker,效果意外還不錯。

除此之外,這周就也沒什麼特殊事情在做了。主要還是在玩歐洲卡車模擬的活動「Hearts in Bloom」,也是完成了。雖然每次活動都很長,但是我都是喜歡一次性做完所有活動。

來貼幾張圖吧。

說實話,由於是假期,突然就不知道說什麼。畢竟這不是新聞啊。

哈哈。

寫完就站起來抬個頭,看看今天的天空吧。

下班。
