i choo-choo-choose the simple life

a fake toy in a plastic blister-pack on a custom-made cardback by artist ObviousPlant. the bright, colorful illustrated cardback has the feature title "GET IN LOSERS" and the subtitle below it "WE'RE GOING TO...". in the center is the toy itself, a red molded plastic steam engine with a simply drawn cartoon man with a hat. below that is more text, reading "GO LIVE A SMALL AND QUIET LIFE THAT IS unremarkable yet meaningful to ourselves and the chosen few who shared it with us." in the background of the cardback is an idyllic countryside with a number of characters, saing "toot toot!" "tickets please", "all aboard" and "do not lick the train!"

The "Calvin's dad talks about rotational velocity to Calvin, leading to a freaked out sleepless night" comic, but it's been 'shopped.

PANEL 1: Calvin's dad, alone. "Playing a record? I'll show you something interesting."
PANEL 2: Calvin's dad, sitting with Calvin. "The two types of meme are this one and Loss. American Chopper? This one. guy pointing to butterfly? Loss. Expanding brain? This one." Calvin: "Yeah...?"
PANEL 3: Closeup on Calvin and his dad. "Rick roll? Loss. 'Change my mind?' This one. Zendaya is Meechee? Loss. Grant Gustin at the grave? This one. 6 7? Loss. Despite me being your dad and this being this one, this is Loss."
PANEL 4: Calvin horizontal in bed at night, eyes open, looking distraught. Behind him and at the left, making a visual "L", is Hobbes, holding his chin and looking thoughtful/concerned.

Image that's composited from dozens of smaller photos, of the white brick and glass facade of what looks like a massive quonset hut that served as the volunteer fire department's meeting hall and hosted weekly bingo games. There's an aluminum-canopied entryway and three tall rectangular windows from ground to near the roof, made of glass blocks occasionally punctuated with smaller red or orange tiles. The white brick pattern has random bricks jutting forwards a couple cm. To the left is a brick tower slightly taller than the arch of the building, with an old-fashioned yellow klaxon siren mounted on top that would sound every Thursday night for the volunteer meeting and practice session. It was audible literally for over a mile across rolling hills and a tree-lined ravine. The gravel parking lot is empty and to the left, just out of view, is the new volunteer fire house that (at the time) had recently replaced the old one, already removed.

Due to the way the photo is composited, the building seems solid but the windows weave slightly in different directions as if tossed by wind, and the siren is wobbling on top of its tower.

Been sorting and cleaning some old hard drives before disposal and found the sources and final files for a years-long photo project that I thought I'd lost over a decade ago.

I have a lot to say about this but it'll have to be for another time.

@intervalometer These are not leaving the building. They'll be repurposed as backup drives.

@BooBounder Not an adventure worth recounting. An old NAS was being used for low-priority long-term storage but was at the end of its useful lifespan. Kind of a nuisance to copy (because of slowness) but it's done now and once I've finished validating the fresh copy the drives will be pulled, wiped and reused, and the empty NAS unit will go to charity.

Aside from this project and some files from companies I worked for in the previous millennium, there wasn't much on the NAS that wasn't already kept redundantly elsewhere. Well, also a variety of pre-OS X fonts files that are totally useless now... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I hardly do any graphics work any more so their loss hasn't been missed for a couple decades now.

Kyoto aquarium drama

A chart in Japanese which shows the complicated relationships between penguins at the Kyoto aquarium

A chart in Japanese which shows the complicated relationships between penguins at the Kyoto aquarium
From the toot https://toot.cat/@devopsc...

“The Kyoto Aquarium in Japan keeps a wall-sized flowchart tracking the romantic relationships, breakups, and drama between their penguins. They update it every year.

Red hearts mean couples. Blue broken hearts mean it’s over. Purple lines with question marks mean it’s complicated. Yellow means friendship. Green means enemies.

One female penguin reportedly ended six relationships in a single year. The comment under her photo, translated from Japanese, described her as “basically demonic.” Another penguin was caught dating someone 17 years older who also turned out to be their great aunt. And penguins who get broken up with sometimes refuse to eat.”

A silver 2012 Cadillac sits in a driveway and wears its scars with a certain kind of quiet dignity. Its best days are behind it, but it is not done yet. May we all age so gracefully.
For whatever reason we just keep getting the cars that people age out of driving. This is a 2012 Cadillac that a little old lady parked by feel and only scraped curbs on one side. It's... tired. We'll give it a spit polish, straighten it up, make it safe, and pass it along. It'll stay out of the junkyard and keep someone rolling. In a 2012 sort of comfort. There was an old Peter Egan article about fixing up an elderly relative's 1960 Caddy. This ain't that. We've nicknamed it Scruffy. Like the janitor from Futurama.

I've been keeping an eye on https://www.slate.auto/ . I much prefer a simpler vehicle with less to break, easier to fix, reliable to packing in every feature under the sun. I'm not saying I want to go back to manual roll up windows, but seats where you pull a lever and slide to position them, doors you open and close by hand instead of pressing a button make a lot more sense to me.

We like to have half our tomatoes be cherry/grape types because we like how they grow and look and taste, etc., but the other half we’ve started doing as all biggins. These are the four varietals we picked for this half this year. Woohoo!!!

Our CSA includes some heirloom tomatoes every summer, and past batches have included both Mortgage Lifter and Pink Delicious.
