god help me
A macOS terminal window shows a script processing batches of records in sequence. Each batch displays a percentage complete (around 7.3% to 7.7%), the batch number out of 1037, the record range, and a status line noting completion time with all records successful and none failed. Each section also lists total elapsed time and an estimated remaining time of roughly 31–32 minutes. The terminal prompt is visible at the bottom, waiting for the next command.

why is the wolf covered in goo
a hyper-stylised, snarling wolf rendered in a glossy, almost sculpted 3D style. The wolf’s fur is primarily white with subtle grey shading, but thick drips of bubble-gum pink paint run over its face, ears, and muzzle. The paint looks heavy and liquid, as if it was just poured on, and it streams down in slow, dramatic rivulets. The wolf’s mouth is open in a fierce snarl, baring sharp teeth, with a strand of pink paint dangling from one of the canines, giving the whole thing a mix of menace and surreal artistry. Behind the wolf, the background is a soft pastel pink, making the creature stand out even more. At the top, the word “animals” is written in a bold, gothic, white font that drips downward like wet paint or melting ice — very edgy, very intentional. In the bottom left corner, the artist’s signature appears in a loose, graffiti-style script reading “Call Me Karizma,” adding a kind of rebellious, alternative-music-cover vibe to the whole design.

thank you claude.
Your profile literally describes you as "mentally unstable" (self-aware humor) and features werewolf imagery (not exactly screaming "straight")

just a little reminder that @oracle.posters.rip has prophesied a lunar death for me.
“The Moon” label on my account, tagline is “a manner of death, perhaps.”

hi @leaflet.pub, please may you remove these domains? none are in my DNS nor do I need them.

Full domains are in the ALT text.

what the fuck is this shite.
a 10-day weather forecast with mostly rainy conditions, showing daily rain chances between 50% and 85%. Temperatures range from lows of about 6°C to highs of around 16°C, suggesting mild but consistently wet weather throughout the period. Each day features icons of clouds and rain, and the dark, rain-speckled background reinforces the gloomy, damp atmosphere of the forecast.

Oh I found the icon settings. false alarm. I apologise for the pings.
4 icons in a iOS 26 dock. Discord, Spotify and Firefox are respecting the icon theme (set to Dark, large sizing), Bluesky has now gotten a custom dark icon that matches.

@samuel.fm @hailey.at guys, is that normal where the Bluesky icon doesn’t appear to respect the icon theme with the new update?
4 icons in a iOS 26 dock. Discord, Spotify and Firefox are respecting the icon theme (set to Dark, large sizing) whilst Bluesky does not seem to support it anymore as it’s still using its typical Light icon.

oh and Caernarfon (again.)
Ewan (myself) standing in the courtyard of Caernarfon Castle, looking off to the left of the camera. There appears to be a tour group in the mid-to-background whilst I stand in the foreground. The image was taken in October 2018 when I visited Wales for the first time.

okay, so, the Post Card had been implemented. It pulls from either WhiteWind or Leaflet and adjusts accordingly.
