"Qué será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Qué será, será
What will be, will be"
-Doris Day

I've been pretty disciplined in sticking to a whole-food plant-based diet this week and, just like always, I feel so much better.

Yesterday I went to go see one of our survey supplier's and their newly built shop. I'm friends with them, but haven't stopped by in person in a few months. I told my intern that he had to meet Kris, their hilarious and awesome receptionist. When we got there, there was a new face at the front desk and I asked if Kris was off.
"No, she's no longer with us. She had a heart attack.", the new lady said.
"Oh wow, is she OK?", I asked.
"No, she didn't make it. I'm sorry.", she replied.
Just like that, someone special in my life was gone. Had I ever talked to her about Jesus? There is an urgency about the Gospel and we (the Church) have been put specifically where we are to be a light in this world.

The digital prison is finally starting to take shape in the UK.

Aldi's in London requires a scanned QR code for entry.

People were warned of portents of things to come.

DO NOT COMPLY!

My husband had to wait for 6 years to capture this view of #TheNeedles.

Taken as the #moon set at 4.30 am last summer. This shot is only possible a couple of times each year. He almost had it in 2016 but it was slightly too breezy and the telephoto lens couldn't keep in focus.

It causes controversy as some think it's fake, I promise you that it is not. It involved much research, persistence and luck with the weather! It's the cover shot on our 2024 calendar #IsleofWight #photography

#Librem5 #battery life Improved by 100%!

Blog by @purism:

"...the Librem 5 is getting better with age and it may well be the only #smartphone to do so. That is because we don’t invest in #obsolescence. In the opposite, our wonderful dev team is never giving up on their effort to optimize the software. After each major update, the Librem 5 gets faster and lighter on it’s hardware resources."

There's a ton of random, obscure stuff on the internet but for some reason I thought it might be fun to check out a series we had to watch in school called The Voyage of the Mimi. It has a theme song that will embed itself deep in your brain. IYKYK. Anyways, there are some very bad copies on YouTube and that's it. It's been mostly wiped from existence. Millions of people watched this and it seems odd that it is so unavailable.

Fun story. We had to replace many of these door hinges at the State Capitol a few years back. Problem was, the lead content was too high to have them made in the States. So what do you do? Fab them from China that’s what.

This morning in church we’re singing:
“Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere…”
We’ve got most everything cleaned up from the recent flood and repairs are ongoing.

"I think of Gemini as like the Haiku form for poems: yes it's highly restrictive, but the art is just in expressing yourself though the form. People coming around and protesting that haikus aren't sonnets, or that they aren't suitable for writing plays, are missing the point, IMO."

Very proud of my daughter for working hard in life and going against the flow of her generation. May she use her gifts and talents to honor God and do great works in the world!

Every time I take my phone out of its case to clean everything, I'm amazed at two things:
1. How absolutely tiny it is and how they engineered it all together.
2. How gross humans are.

I've got a Gemini Capsule up and running! It was very easy.

What is Gemini?
Basically a simple, more secure idea of what the web should be.
It is VERY easy to write pages.

You'll need a separate client to view this corner of the web. Lagrange is my favorite.
