Yesterday I saw the anime "Paprika". I knew someone whose favorite movie of all time was this. I was quite sleepy when I started it but I don't think it is why I find the movie stupid. I liked many elements but the motivation of each character was unexplained or nonsensical. I dare to say it was banana on a technical story-telling level. It is a movie that lives on the vibes of dreams and dreamscapes but the non-dream story glue didn't held up in my opinion.

I've built 3 more boxes for my eight remaining tomatoes. Per box there will be 2 plants planted, so two plants will be left behind for now. The paint has to cure a little bit and then I can place them in my garden.
In total I'll have 36 tomato plants. I don't know if I make another box. I already spent a lot. I guess it should be enough... What am I saying? Of course it's not enough!about 3 days ago from web -
Rick and Morty is back. Dark episode but good.

Got rid of 8 tomato plants (i.e. gave away). Still have 8 left. I guess I give up and just plant the rest myself despite already having enough and more than I planned. I bought another set of buckets and a full load of dirt, as well spiral rods. Next year I'll add more other plants than tomato. I have a few salad plants, cucumber, and jalapeno, and a few beans. First some bushes have to go to make more room.

Fleamarkets are wonderful. I bought the exact same model of backpack that I have since 2008 and got me through university. The price was 5 times as much as I bought today, for only 18€. The old one is still in a fairly good condition but there is a hole forming at the bottom from sliding on the floor and there are abrasions in the lower back area. The good thing is that I don't have to readjust to a completely new backpack once the old one falls apart. I was eyeing on some backpacks but they are flawed as they often don't provide an extra big secondary compartment for stuff like a rain poncho, umbrella, bicycle repair tools and such. And if they do they are behemoths and cost too much.

I have a wild strawberry plant in my garden that stem from the previous owner. A few days ago I saw some fruits that were almost ripe. My mother likes them and would have been ripe when she visits me again. Today I saw that they were lying on the ground. It's either mice or birds that plucked them. I think it's rather the latter than the former. Mice would have gnawed on the fruit. My guess is on pigeons. I saw a few of them landing my garden several times and I trust them that they are dumb enough not to eat the berries.

Had my first time a militant vegan was commenting on my post on bluesky. Shouldn't have replied to them. It baffles me that they cannot frame their interaction in a more positive light like saying that other products might be better and be positive to try more. Guess that's the Internet in a nutshell.

@adiwan I didn't want to look into the person's profile but I did it anyway. As suspected the person is as stereotypical of a militant vegan as it can be. Their personality is fully based on spreading veganism by being a dick to everybody and guilt-tripping for eating dead animals. Cool bro. You found an interesting hobby.

Yesterday I watched "Venom The Last Dance". It was a mindbogglingly awful movie. Fun-ish awful, but still awful. The plot makes no to close to no sense. The characters are one-dimensional. Their actions are coincidental. Of course the big bad guy does nothing and sends his minions to do the job. Understandable as the BBG is imprisoned BUT as the audience I had no real grasp WHY he is so dangerous and there is only a pair of lines even mentioning that. Also it is sadly funny that the multiverse jump at the end of the previous movie was undone within the first scenes.
It is a 2/10 for me with a trash factor of 5/10, higher if friends are around to goof off.about 6 days ago from web -
Tried vegan "minced meat". It was fine.... I didn't spit it out but it wasn't a delight. No wonder it was at a reduced price. Gonna buy soon the real deal to make up for the disappointment to my taste buds.

FBI reports that the man who bombed the fertility clinic in Palm Springs had access to bomb-making material, wonder how they figured it out

@scribus Oh wow! What a surprise! A determined person could brew something simple as gunpowder from the knowledge from Wikipedia.

I've seen some of those lawn mowing youtube channels and it is astounding to see the transformations. One thing, however, is pretty appaling: Huge backyards without anything but grass. An area 4 to 5 times bigger than the house.

I love to get rid off my excess tomato plants to my neighbors. I have still 12 plants left.

What if school classes were RPG classes in a game? Having a party of students that is composed of a physics student, a foreign language student, a history student and a religion student could be for example a fantasy equivalent of a wizard, a bard, a rogue, and a cleric.

@adiwan I had actually just been mentally workshopping something like that, where your character sheet is a report card and instead of numbers it was letter graded, "Oh I've got this puzzle, with my A+ in Ancient Sumerian Math!"

@scribus Hmmm.... Weirdly compelling. So you have to find books, teachers, information and then to write an exam to level up a skill?

I bit the bullet and ordered a Sony Xperia 10 VI. I am annoyed that 1) didn't get any cheaper and 2) the successor wasn't released/announced this month and 3) my battery of my Blackberry KeyOne only lasts barely half a day at idle and shuts down when any higher strain on the CPU is below 40% charge. The successor comes probably out at the end of Fall but it is too long to wait any longer.
