1/ #Introduction
Hi, you can call me Dutch. Jack of all Trades recovering from burnout, and an unsocial hermit, bound to a lovely seaside town with dubious local characters.

I wish I could eat steak every night.

I just got a letter from our letting agent.
They're increasing rent from December. And instead of increasing it by £25 per month, it's an extra £50 per month.
ALL LANDLORDS ARE BASTARDS.
Fucking parasites.

Blood has been donated.
I hope whomever receives it appreciates the effort I put into making this artisinally crafted batch of blood. Made it myself.

🩸 It's blood donation day! 🩸

Would've been next Friday on Halloween but motorcycle training that day.
I would've loved to have done it on Halloween. I truly hope they all dress up as vampires.🧛

My greatest fear is that I vastly overestimate the competency, ability and motivation of individuals in any kind of authority.
From local councillor to minister of whatever. From supervisor at a supermarket to it's CEO.
That I actually would be better at any of these jobs, but never realizing it.

I've started reading through a D&D 5E module, called Kinks & Cantrips.
It may be time to finally merge the overlapping interests in many a nerds life and run THAT campaign.

I'm still trying to figure out the best time to go the my gym when it's quiet, and I can use the spa/sauna afterwards without being surrounded by 2 dozen OAP's using it like their personal bathroom.

Gotta say, kinda miss netbooks.
Walking around with an Asus EEE PC 701, really getting into linux, and just whipping it out at the shopping mall to crack their shitty wifi.
Gods it was wonderful. Felt so cyberpunk.

Lovely night. Hot cup of tea, lofi jazz playing in the background, night has falling, and rain lashes the windows.
Heaven.

Sometimes I wish I was more of a tech nerd than a scifi/fantasy nerd.

Running a D&D session is infinitely easier when I've taken an Elvanse.
Today's one-shot was an absolute blast and I made a new friend. Loved it.

Okay quick question. I have found a local print shop that offers fair and eco conscious products, including this lovely light olive hoodie.
I wonder if I should offer this design for pre-order? Would you get one?

I'm not stupid enough to 'push through the pain'. There's no rush, no deadline. Good habits over rushed goals.

Dutch Barracuda🏳️‍🌈🛠☢️🌎♻️ @dutchbarracuda.bsky.social · 11d

Starting the 3 Day split isn't going as well as I'd hoped. My right arm is still hurting from previous session, so I went for a simple cardio session today instead.
When it's healed enough, tomorrow or friday, I'll carry on.

I've decided for myself that moving to Windows 11 would be a step sideways and probably backwards too.
It's always been a bloated OS, but it sounds like huge leap of enshittification to go from 10 to 11.
Maybe 12 or 13 will be the next '98/XP/7'
In the mean time, I'm gonna hug a penguin.

It's nice expanding my baking skills. Loafs, rolls, cake, cookies, muffins, etc.
Also means I'm gonna have to work twice as hard at the gym tomorrow because GODDAMN AM I GOOD!

The most insulting of British weathers is the 'fine drizzle', most hated by anyone wearing glasses.
It's not rain. It's not mist or fog. And it's not even a drizzle.
Just a perpetual cloud of floating droplets that cling to your glasses the moment you move forward.

It's amazing isn't it? FLAVOUR!

Dutch Barracuda🏳️‍🌈🛠☢️🌎♻️ @dutchbarracuda.bsky.social · 13d

Today I managed to start a new work out routine, swapping from my usual 'Cardio and some weights' to a structured 3 Day Split.
Muscles are all shakey.
Just means my skeleton is getting ready to hatch for Halloween.

And then I looked up the numbers. They're the 4th largest political party the UK now, surpassing Lib Dems by 30k.
That is some serious traction, and I'm glad to count myself among them.
