I like talking to people about the things that interest them. People are interesting! I pick up heavy things and put them back down, and I run when no one is chasing me. Love #books, #knitting, #outdoors, #weightlifting, #running and #baking.

Last Notes npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt this one just rubbed me the wrong way with the hero being so overbearing. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I am attempting to read A Reluctant Widow by Georgette Heyer, and it seems to mostly be men manipulating a woman into ridiculous situations and then acting surprised when she shouts at them. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt some runs just kinda suck. Nice work in spite of it npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I really wish that the best way to get better at various exercises wasn't to do more of them. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt "Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who has seen his net worth skyrocket by nearly $100 billion since the AI boom started a couple of years ago, would really appreciate it if you would stop talking about the potential harms of the technology that’s supercharged his fortune. It’s really harshing his vibe" npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt A watched email never pings. At least not with the email that I'm waiting for. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt 2025 might be the year that forces me to admit I need glasses again, but by god, it will not be the year where I start actually wearing them. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I managed to burn both hands this morning, once by accident positioning my mug handle over a candle and once by touching the toaster oven while removing my waffle. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Somehow, this is more alarming than I had expected. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Sprint drill survived. I almost said accomplished, but that would be overselling it. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt which is an amazing goal and hella impressive. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I'm having one of those days where imposter syndrome about being a "real" athlete is very loud. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I saw another person on her phone in the steam room today. She wasn't listening to audio, thank goodness. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I love this so much! Was it hard to stitch such a think fabric? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Today's workout: heavy front squats followed by 30 minutes of swimming. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I almost never post pictures of myself online, but I figured i could make an exception for this one. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I am looking for recommendations for good history podcasts about parts of the world other than Europe and the US. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I remember debating if I should buy R books or Python books. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt And this one. Not sure if R still gets much use? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt A few more academic books to share. US shipping, etc. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Could anyone in the US use a copy of The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers by Johnny Saldaña (2016)? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt non-pro, I think. They do have noise cancelling, so it may be a fit issue that I'm hearing so much wind. I may also need to play with making sure the mic is muted npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Well, drats. I just discovered I can't source new replacement parts for my headphones because the company isn't in business. Gonna do some digging on the second-hand market. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I have an email that I just do not want to write because the situation is awkward. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I just saw an article lamenting that women adopt gen ai at a 25% lower rate then men, which both "hurts their career prospects" and adds to "bias in AI." npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt it's the travel... it wore me out. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt My blog is not forgotten. After lots of travel, I'm back to it. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt floooooof! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I wish I could send some extra cake for moral support, but I will just have to send some vibes or something instead. Glad he's stable and you got a run npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I went to a bra boutique and did an actual custom try on and fitting yesterday. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I've pretty much done the first two, work wise. I am wandering to my back deck and contemplating yoga and a nap npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt also, it worked from her office, so it was either the internet or VPN settings npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt if only it was that easy to get a real tech! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt are you working locally or online? Is anyone else having issues or just you? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt A friend at another company complained about her computer freezing up, and I reflexively started to troubleshoot. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Yay, exercise. I needed that workout, y'all. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I just saw that story about a famous violinist being ignored when he was busking, even though he had just played a sold out concert. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Eleanor Janega's Once and Future Sex got me going, and then a chapter in Ada Palmer's Inventing the Renaissance where she talked about a woman being remembered because all the men wrote poems to her more than for her own poems npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt To his credit, when I told my male partner that my reading made me want to punch a bunch of dead monks, he responded "it sounds logistically challenging. Don't forget to consult a lawyer while you're planning." npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I am editing video of a webinar I did and it is every bit as awkward as I remember to watch myself on camera. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I cannot fathom going 70 mph on an e-bike. I'm a fan of them generally, but 35 mph feels plenty fast on two skinny tires. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt they're all lovely! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Sending more thanks to the local deities of roads and reflexes and things that could have been bad but weren't. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I've been thinking about non-attachment lately. I'm not an expert in this by any means, but there's something about stepping back from the present moment and world around me that just doesn't sit well. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt yes! I was kind of surprised with myself, honestly, but pleasantly so npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I spent several days this week Eating All The Things at the dietician's recommendation. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt one other important thing to know: be careful how you approach someone who is drowning. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Dear Canadian Government, npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt and the commute to come borrow them is a bit inconvenient! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I am experiencing a sudden and inexplicable urge to acquire cargo pants. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I noticed today that while I am happy to donate to various charities regularly, even monthly, I'm oddly reluctant to sign up for monthly donation programs npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt as I think about this more, I think it may be the cleaning service and coffee that I don't need to make for myself that I enjoy.... npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt so glad she's ok! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt the quality and location of the hotel is a factor. I've been in some very nice ones and some ones I couldn't wait to leave npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt my partner and I agree that one of us is really horrible at the whole dishwasher loading thing, yet we can't seem to agree who is awful... npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt my partner is good about npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Usually, I don't mind being a slow runner, but it made today's workout brutal. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt cookies usually do help npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt #FensterFreitag from my travel. There's symmetry, and then there's this. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Got the second part of yesterday's workout done today, but I still couldn't manage to jump rope well at all. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt In a very On Brand sort of moment, I keep discovering little caches of candy as I pack my belongings for the return trip. Mostly, it seems to be godisfisk, as there was no way I was going to Sweden without finding Swedish Fish. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt @npub1jze…d67w Have you read any Fearne Hill books? I've just been through two and find myself utterly charmed. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt i don't think Eurovision can really be described. It can only be experienced. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Can anyone recommend an online store to buy mending supplies, like a darning egg and speedweave loom? I don't really have a local place these days npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Describing #AI as PhD-level intelligent seems like such a weird phrase to me. This is probably a reflection of my understanding of what it means to have a PhD. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I'm trying to tell myself this is adding to the funky handmade charm. I did have an easier time fixing it when I'm more awake npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Ugh.... I had a whole minute of thinking I knew what I was doing in my knitting just in time to completely screw up that row. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt The biggest problem with enjoying a spontaneous lazy day yesterday is that I want to do it again today. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I try to be extra careful since I know how bad US-ians are about assuming the world revolves around them. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I was listening to a book written in 2005 that was enthusing about how Coca Cola represents values like America, freedom and democracy. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I have been struggling with the surprised tone that people are using. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt this is the article, should you care to be appalled npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I just stumbled across an article that frames women becoming catholic nuns as a way to opt out of the pressures of modern life. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt there are email masking services and burner email tools that you can use as well. I don’t know how traceable gmail would be, but it seems to always ask me for identifiable data like an another account as backup npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I’m not sure what word describes the sky this morning. It’s beautiful and ominous. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Maybe we should stop thinking about human greed and hate as something we are battling to defeat and more like an ongoing problem to mitigate like friction. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt again I say “smart lady” npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt what!?! Noooo! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt yikes! Hope you’re staying warm. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I will need to try them. I don’t watch much stuff from Japan for absolutely no reason that I can think of. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt What are your warm hug tv shows and movies right now? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt he’s in Canada. I believe they all are part polar bear or part moose npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I have a potato conundrum. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt maybe even big bidet at that level! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I just saw something recommending up to 50 g of fiber a day. Granted, they were recommending lots of calories in general and lots of protein, but I literally do not have the intestinal fortitude for that much fiber. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I was trying to figure that out too. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Today’s workout: npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt sounds like a good listen, even if I’m never ever ever going to try to run the Appalachian trail. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt My deck is more fun in warm weather, but it looks kinda cool in the snow npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt and currently a less injured one as a result! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt they figured people would buy them from morbid curiosity? Oreo has gotten me that way once or twice npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt HOW THE HELL IS HUNGRY AN EMOTION? npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt wow. Stunning photo! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I need all the lights on full power in whatever room I’m in. None of this ambience nonsense for me! npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt do you like your light? I have been eyeing those lately. It will look fantastic with my magnifier eyewear npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I’m going with the old cat and her human to say goodbye this morning. She is letting go, so it is time. npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt In a burst of foresight, I did not send my partner photographic evidence that he did That Thing That Drives Me Crazy But He Swears He Doesn’t Do.* npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt Another early bird here. Some of this really is how you’re wired, though. My brain has always worked better at 6 am than 10 pm npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt I haven’t managed to befriend neighborhood corvids, let alone get assistance. Need to boost my game npub14a68pm0qf08vwkyn40t8khw6hqag9upag56akmukptwygdymk9uqle9ar2 Bomkatt yikes, and OUCH
