this week has been pretty for me, but productive; i’m two books ahead of my reading schedule (to read 35 books this year–i’m at 12) and managed to just gun through a 500 page book in a day or so after weeks of not wanting to read

    Busy week. Exploring Lemmy in downtime. Liking the software so far but wishing there was more activity. Beehaw seems to be the most active “general” community I’ve found so far.

    @alyaza Great that you’re reading. I need to up my reading pace as well.

    About last week, well, guess that was fine. I just got a brand new Nokia G22 as I wanted to get the experience of a repairable phone (I couldn’t afford a Fairphone and when the news broke out about its launch I immediately eyed it, as my current phone was already due to be replaced) - I really like it so far, it works just fine for my needs and the battery lasts a lot (more than one day).

    I’m almost off to bed as it is almost midnight here in Romania and I caught a cold - due to which I couldn’t really sleep last night.

    Edit: It’s great that you started this thread, OP. Beehaw is such a wonderful community.

      @alyaza Great that you’re reading. I need to up my reading pace as well.

      incidentally, i just finished a book earlier today (Columbine by Dave Cullen) so that makes for 13 as of this moment. 5 in the past week

        @alyaza ohhh, congrats! I barely get to read 2-3 books per year anymore, haha. Guess it was in part because of the various stuff happening in my life (although my online life might also be a culprit, ngl).

        I recently started reading this book. It’s about the formal Royal palace - now turned into a National Art Museum and it’s various transformations over time, during the various reigns.

    I had a wonderful weekend - went to a conference titled queering psychedelics, which was about the intersection of queer identity and psychedelic medicine and science and it was quite unlike any other conference I’ve ever been to in the most wonderful of ways.

    Unfortunately I also partied too hard that weekend each day after the conference and ended up waking up at like 4a on Monday sneezing and sick. I have tickets and plans to go out thurs, fri, sat of this week so I may need to sell the tickets or hope I get better by then 😩

    Doing well, thanks. Getting through my work week, and looking forward to a long weekend so I can relax. I have begun work on a small project that’ll keep my brain engaged (Hopefully). Exciting times :)
