It's kinda annoying when you ask someone why they block someone else, because you don't want to be associating with a disgusting person that you're unaware of, and the person doesn't respond. Even though they were responding to everything before then....🤦‍♂️

Memory, nostalgia, personal
Today I've reached the part of Szczecin that I haven't visited for 15 years or so. I have to say: memory is interesting.
I only had minimal recollections before, some place names I've visited, some associations, maybe a few rough visual memories. Looking at the map helped uncover a bit more but not much.
Today, walking (unknowingly following a similar route), memories returned in bulk. "I've been here before", "I totally forgot about these plane trees", "I remember this fence", "we sat somewhere over there". Even some images returned.
I was hit by nostalgia too. After all, all that was important to me. I was in love, and for the first time in my life everything was going just right. These were the good memories.
So what's the issue? Perhaps it is that it's easier to cherish good memories when the present is good as well, or at least you're convinced that it's going to go in the right direction. Perhaps you need precisely that to avoid perceiving these memories as the good old days that are never coming back.
Or perhaps it's an autism spectrum thing. Perhaps these memories will always represent attachment to a person that's no longer a part of my life. Dreams that didn't come true. Good times that has passed, and that I didn't cherish as much as I wish I would. Memories made together that remain important to me, but not to anyone else. And these memories that I've lost, though they remain present at the edge of conscience, reminding of their existence, but ever unreachable.

Bells Build Massive Biceps — David Boles Bells
Hello again, my Kettlebell friend! We always want to look and feel our best — that’s why we do what we do everyday with slinging our rounded iron! Yes, creating massive biceps is a common goal for many fitness enthusiasts — not that there’s anything wrong with that!

Tried to stream the BirdCam to YouTube Live using Restreamer but YouTube, despite saying the stream was good, just displayed a black preview and never started the actual stream. Most peculiar. No-one else seems to have had the same problem (or at least it doesn’t appear in the searches I tried.)

Repeating partial disruptions and two-body relaxation
Two-body relaxation may drive stars onto near-radial orbits around a massive black hole, resulting in a tidal disruption event (TDE). In some circumstances, stars are unlikely to undergo a single terminal disruption, but rather to have a sequence of many grazing encounters with the black hole. It has long been unclear what is the physical outcome of this sequence: each of these encounters can only liberate a small amount of stellar mass, but may significantly alter the orbit of the star. We stu…
