Interesting times
Jan. 15th, 2022 06:06 pmObviously, a massive volcanic explosion was exactly what the world needs on top of covid and climate breakdown and general political chaos. Twitter is throwing up its hands and saying "Krakatoa!" a lot, though it may just be catastrophising. (Also, apparently there are people who have never heard of Krakatoa, which I find mindboggling.)
Other than that I have had a quiet Saturday. I went for a chilly swim, came back and assembled our new bird feeding station (we have put it outside the living room window, in the hope that we might get close-up views of birds, though so far none have found it) and then cut my hair (I thought I was past DIY haircuts, but the top had got really long and was annoying me enormously, and even if I had the time or the spoons to attempt to go to the barbers', it doesn't really seem like a smart move in terms of risk right now). And then I sewed a handkerchief out of an old pillowcase (I've switched to hankies recently as tissues seem to be in short supply) while listening to a sustainable sewing podcast, like some kind of utter cliche.
