I appear to have solved whatever problems I was having with dust when developing negatives at home — which is great. Taking those spots out was 90% of the editing I’ve been doing for black and white.

Something I notice with my Leica, even more than my Nikon FM2, is that the space between the frames on the negatives is identical. On the point and shoots I have it’s really variable. #leica #filmphotography

I am fairly certain that the Saint Johns neighborhood of Portland is primarily a coffee shop based economy.
Picking up coffee beans at my local shop.
Enjoying my murdered out black Kånken I got myself. I usually go for colorful things, but this spoke to me.

Thinking of submitting some of my photos for this black and white gallery show. Don’t know if they’re good enough to get accepted, but maybe 😊
After ruining three rolls of film because of something I did wrong with D76 developer, I picked up some Kodak HC-110, which seems a bit more foolproof.
If you’ve tried sudoku in the past and had trouble getting into it, I recommend trying it in Apple News. I’ve been playing everyday and it’s pretty fun!
I’ll never get over there being conservative Star Trek fans who complain unironically that the series has “gone woke.” A big part of why I’m the way I am is because I grew up watching Star Trek. It’s intentionally been very progressive from the start.
Something I’ve learned about using a rangefinder camera — take the lens cap off when you start shooting and then leave it off. Otherwise I end up forgetting to take it off and shoot six blank shots.
I took ChatGPT off my phone. I’m going to try just using it just through Siri if I really need something answered and otherwise try and cultivate my traditional researching skills.
I really dislike getting sent a link or a code in an email to sign into a website. I don’t know when this caught on, but it’s my least favorite of the available options.
I have to leave what I’m doing, go to a different app, maybe refresh a couple of times, click the link and then finally I’m in.
I like computers.
I almost never put non-CRUD routes in my Rails controllers anymore. If I’m tempted to, I try to think of how this concept could be represented in its own controller, which it can just about all the time.
It’s crazy with Luigi and this perp walk and the whole thing how they aren’t even pretending they don’t value rich people’s lives more than the rest of ours.
I’m interested in connecting with people involved in intentional communities, eco villages, off-grid living or related for a photography project in which I would document and write about what they’re doing. If you have any connections, get in touch please. #intentionalcommunity #offgrid
I think I have the brain scramblies.
The way you can organize and mix in code using modules and namespaces is probably my favorite thing in Ruby. It’s such a simple and powerful system that usually does what I expect it to do and lets me create more complex systems while keeping them understandable. #ruby
My ability to be both incredibly tired and unable to sleep at the same time is pretty notable.
I think I realized the reason I keep getting dust on my film negatives I can’t get out is that there’s a heating vent in the bathroom. I’m going to try hanging a bar in my closet with an air purifier to see if that works better.
I asked Image Playground to make one of my dogs a fantasy hero and the other a chef. Seems pretty accurate.
I had a dream last night where Apple dropped AppleScript support and I was so mad.
