  1. Not so much style over substance … as my substance over a stile!

    Oh, the perils of being short…

    Mothman loves the countryside.
    But the countryside doesn’t always love Mothman!

  3. Not a #moth post.
    A close up of my spotted-touch-me-not post! 😲

    Scenes from a walk.

    1) Spotted touch-me-not (….or the far less interesting name of Orange Balsam)
    2) Beautiful demoiselle
    3) Old canal bridge
    4) Mothman being a wistful ‘Good Old Boy’

    Fabulous day 1 #walk of our 50 miles Newbury to Petersfield walk. Today, short 8 miles Newbury to Inkpen.

  5. 🤔 Oh look, another round of "I Swear This Is Math, Not My Diary" where the author heroically battles the concept of #randomness with the bravery of a toddler stacking blocks. 🙃 But remember folks, it's 100% #humanmade rambling—no AI dared to be this chaotic. 📉

  7. Just a few butterflies seen on our short 12 mile #SouthDowns #walk today. Not great photos travelling at pace and pointing an iPhone hither and thither. But sharing is caring...

    1) White Admiral (a little distant)
    2) and 3) Ringlet
    4) One of a gazillion Marbled Whites

    Also saw lots of Meadow Browns as well as birds including Stonechat, Skylark, Swifts, Buzzard and Red Kite

  9. I got an early birthday gift :)

    My partner got me an entry level racing wheel for my birthday. I'm having a lot of fun with it! I've been playing some BeamNG.drive and doing some emulated PS3 games. I decided to try it in cyberpunk too and it just works! I tried it with Redout, too, great time but my goodness that game is hard. It's possible I'm stupid, but I couldn't get it working with Assetto Corsa so that game is still sitting in my library unplayed. I'm gonna try to get it set up with XEMU, and maybe eventually I'll […]

  11. This is my style of native gardening. I call it "Chaos gardening" although I think it's more proper to call it no-dig gardening.

    When we first moved in, 6 years ago in August, I started this garden with a fresh patch of clay soil. It was used as a tomato garden that they lined with plastic to kill the weeds. After years of getting cut down by deer and groundhogs and uninformed lawn care people, I've finally found a rhythm. I've been allowing the garden to fill in and I weed sparingly around the plants. I weed enough to let in sunlight but not enough to draw unwanted attention.

    Below are some examples of plants that had been eaten to hell last year (and some this year) but continue to grow in spite of it.

    Does anyone else garden like this?

  13. I have a livebearer tank

    I raise guppies and mollies, I've got one muppy (who isn't supposed to exist [grumblegrumble]). I've been doing a lot of looking online about poecillia, the livebearer family of fishes.I have an ideal fish I'm trying to breed. Small like an endler, with lyretail genes from mollies and the sunset eclipse pattern I've got. I know. I'm not a god, I can't just make an animal. But if I toss a few (wild type) male endlers in there who can say what happens with the genes. I've seen claims of second […]

  15. Recharging my mental battery

    Today is what I needed. I went to go see my parents. I love going to see them as they're literally the best. They raised me to be who I am and not care about what people think about me. They set a blueprint that was hard growing up with sometimes but the mockery at school was only a few years.

  16. Not a moth post.
    A common toad post.
    On a path in the beautiful Paxton House grounds, just outside Berwick-upon-Tweed.

  20. Sunrise at "The broken road" Accessed it by foot from the Mam Nick car park (grid ref: SK123832) by walking up from the top of Winnats Pass. Not a bad place to take a flask for first coffee of the day #Hiking #walking #rambling #outdoors

  26. Arugula is bolting due to the heatwave; I'm deliberately letting it go to seed for next year's volunteers. The little garlic in the back is... tiny. The variety of garlic does not seem to like this yard/soil. But, it survives, so it was replanted. There is spinach in there (usually gets eaten). Radishes (daikon) there are much larger than usual, they usually get eaten as shoots by the squirrels. Miner's lettuce and sorrel is my son's experiment... growing fine, but no one has eaten any yet lol. I guess I should start thinning it and mixing it with my breakfast/lunch. #gardening #rambling

  28. Choose your hiking friends wisely. Watch out for dangerous lines like :-
    1. I've found us a trail
    2. It's not very hilly
    3. It's a short one
    4. Be there soon
