A few years ago, I started tracking my sleep because it could integrate into my cycling training app. It’s useful for looking at fatigue and recovery so that I can adjust my training accordingly.
It’s also really fascinating to look at sleep stages, heart rate, and respiration through the night. 9 out of the last 10 nights, I have been in REM right before my alarm goes off. Is that meaningful? I’m not sure, but it’s interesting to me.
Also, 🍻 kills your #sleep. Like clockwork. Moderation=👍

Just being honest.
Took down the mast that was holding up one end of my end fed today. These are the clamps that clamped the mast to a steel fence post. They securely held it up for many years and I highly recommend them. I don't remember where I got them, but it was some company that sells TV antenna masts and associated hardware.
I just cleaned all the spider webs, dirt, and dead insects out of them and wiped them down with WD-40. Now they're ready to go again at the new home.
The rest of the thread propagated...
I can't even look at it by the usual "open on original site" because it's locked.
Oh well.

#Musk Seeks to Put $100M Directly Into #Trump *Political Operation*
#ElonMusk has signaled he wants to make donations not just to his own #superPAC, …but to an outside entity.
It is unheard-of for a WH staffer, even one w/*part-time* status, to make such large contributions to support the agenda of the boss. But there has never been someone in the direct employ of an admin like Musk, the world’s richest person, who is leading Trump’s #DOGE.

A radical proposal: put the EU's counter-tariffs on US social media apps
Rather than imposing broad tariffs, the EU should curb harmful social media via strict regulations, preserving beneficial imports while protecting mental health, democracy, and overall well-being.

My cat has invented a game where he hides under the bed and I shake his crinkly snake on a stick toy. He waits until I'm not paying attention then explodes out from a different piece of the bed to grab the snake. Having raised my blood pressure and vanquished the snake, he trots back under the bed. Repeat until the cat is done.
To start the game, he brings the snake on a stick to me, drops it at my feet, and howls. I have been well trained.

Beadwork! Right shoulder is done!
Every bead was hand stitched.
I decided that simplicity in the bugle beads is best to show off the leaves. Was also closer to what I've seen on period garments for this style.
Some parts I pulled out 4 times to get right.
I’ve been experimenting with classic flowerpot shapes, like these, inspired by Roman vases. They make a great base for painting or decorating with mosaic tiles for a personalized touch. With heights from 100 to 300 mm and diameters from 175 to 400 mm, there’s bound to be one that fits your printer!
