Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Today I attempt to bring a pigeon to stand up (virtually, not in person, I'm not that insane).

Good luck!

Domesticated or you're just going to try to grab one off the street?

Convinced a couple train station pigeons to get on camera with me via judicious application of birdseed

Oh wow! That would have been an interesting standup!

I successfully distracted our scrum lead and entertained the rest of them

I really should have a blood test this week but they always make me feel awful, and I have a ton of paperwork to do by monday.

The blackbird kids are fledgling now so I keep seeing them sitting awkwardly on the ground trying to look like a random stick not a delicious bird.

Are we still doing Photo Fridays?

Hi Dave! I've been all over the map the past month, sorry. Today is the first day I've logged into lemmy so your post is timely. Shall we do a Snapshot Saturday tomorrow?

I've been trying to cut back on my internetting so I've been spending time on non-computer hobbies, which always seems to happen around this time of year.

[–] Dave 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Hey all good! We could do snapshot Saturday!

It could also be a lower frequency, like fortnightly or monthly. It's just been a while and I was missing seeing everyone's photos 🙂

I'd contribute a shot or two from my trip last year ✋

I'll set some alerts up on my phone to remind me to check in more often. I miss the daily catch up even if I'm terrible at commenting myself. The old urge to lurk is hard to break.

Sounds good!
