Great piece on the small/indie (original!) side of the internet, frustrations about most peoples' focus on the mainstream web, and why the 'good', REAL internet is still (and will always be) here underneath, and vibrant https://sightlessscribbles.com/posts/20250603
Did I wear a cute dress when I was 9, 14, 17, and 21? Oh, absolutely yes! Back then, I was hiding in the closet, whispering to myself who I really was.
But now, at 24, I’m sparkling in my truth and loving every vibrant moment of it!

I almost forgot this #waterfall. The weekend should be rainy - again.
There might be quite some water there - it's just a bit of a walk to get there 🤔

Hi friends!
I set my alarm to 5am and headed out for a nice walk. It was getting warm, so I started early. - and it was just so good to do so!
A nice 6h walk with lots of views, lots of photos and just enjoying being out. End the #summit just for me 😍
On the way up I noted all places where I could refuel later using my water filter. Seriously: why didn't I buy that waaays ear…
I really like this idea.

Is it just for me or is Mastodon becoming more vibrant, lively and interesting? 😃

hey friends! One more photo from my recent hike into the #mountains .
My way went from this point to the right over the summit (not seen on the photo), down to the ridge (right into the photo), along the ridge, and down into the middle of the photo.
An amazing day and an impressive trail!

Our neighbor, who helped the previous owners build our little frog pond, gave us some pond lettuce this morning.
The frogs have taken to it immediately. In the close up, two are floating in tight cover.

Another #hiking story is online! No mountains this time but along the shores of the river #Mangfall .
Tough to photograph on such a day. In autumn - with some fog - it must be great. But we really had a great day there!

Hey, I'm still behind with photos and videos, so I'm sharing one from one of my recent hikes again.
Getting up at 5am wasn't - well - my preferred time to get up at the weekend, but it was worth getting up! The reward was a full day in the beautiful mountains.

I feel the call of home...
Hello all!
I wasn't able to process the photos of my recent trips, but I wanted to share this one from last year.
I went there on a hot day to "take a couple of photos". In the end I spent 3h just at this waterfall searching for the right composition & interpretation, the right motive etc.
I love the result, but I'm surprised how much time I spent there to get it.
Niki notes a front yard vegetable garden can be expensive to kick off at first. “It’s a bit of a status symbol now to have a tidy vegetable garden in your front yard producing some of your own food,” she says.

I'm a bit done now. Photos and video will come later.

Just sharing this reminder of a really glorious day in the #mountains .
I spent quite a bit of time to find exactly THIS spot so that fore and midground blended so well together.
And currently I'm having this as a background image in teams. Sometimes I wonder if this might look unprofessional - and then I think "maybe I don't care".
