(An hour late, but still doing it) 30-Day Minimalism Game, Day 8

3 more Christmas gift, and 3 more articles of clothing, and 2 odd bags.

A few more photos that I could have used for today’s photoblogging challenge. Yesterday, I helped guide a client up a very snowy and windy Basin Mountain in the Adirondack High Peaks. 18 miles and 15 hours, car to car.

Man, a ways away, snowshoeing along a trail with large mountains in the distance in front of him.

So you’re saying I should be able to walk here? #mbmar 07 📷

(These trail markers are typically placed above head height. 😳)

Heads up to @jean that the discover page is showing yesterday’s photoblogging challenge word!

Finished reading: Indie Microblogging by Manton Reece ★★★★ 📚

Wow, @manton really did a nice job laying out the history and building blocks of the web, and how they influenced his design and passion for Micro.blog. This book made me want to blog more. 😁

Finished watching: Loot Season 1 (2022) created by Alan Yang & Matt Hubbard ★★★★ 📺

Just as funny as I expected, but with way more heart. A little cliché in parts, but still a fun and worthwhile watch. Maya Rudolph is a national treasure.

So I flew through the whole first season of Ted Lasso in two days. Even as someone who’s rewatched it multiple times and knows it very well, I still got the feels. ★★★★ 📺

  1. Sack spray
  2. Foot stick
  3. Nut rub

Let’s be real. I wasn’t ever going to use these.

Body ointment bottles.

There is but one true place of solitude. #mbmar 03 📷

A toilet.

I take it back. At least the first four episodes are perfect.

In case you’re wondering, the Ted Lasso pilot is still superb several rewatches later.
