Spinda (he/him/his)

Not much this morning. Just on my laptop with a coffee next to me downtown. For this afternoon though, probably just getting back into language learning to keep my brain active.

This evening though, gonna do a run by the lake shore. I’m also gonna message a bunch of friends I haven’t talked to in a long time, because I have been pretty bad at reaching out and hanging out with people this year.

I’ve been living in Canada for a year now (grad school). Going to hope and work hard to see if engineering can pan out over here.

The depravity is beyond parody.

I’ve cancelled all my streaming services. Technically I stream my Bandcamp collection, but I still bought it so it’s somewhat a different model.

The recent wave of artists taking their music off Spotify and how much AI is plaguing that app made me pull the plug.

I’m sure there’s probably someone out there, but I’m really interested in cool border crossings and how they represent nations on each side. As much as I am no nationalist, I find those projections of strength, friendship, security, etc. all super interesting.

Oh, and fake/fantasy transit maps. Those are always fun to draw up in my spare time.

I think the most I would walk is around 40-45 minutes. So no, 1h15m would be far too long to justify walking. Maybe on the weekend if the library was super nice?
