I visited Arran, Mull, Lewis and Harris and travelled down to South Uist and returned to Oban. These photos were taken on Lewis and Harris 😊

Anyone else have a narcissistic father or just me?

I’ll continue to be there for him, despite most of the family giving up. But, when does “family is family” stop being enough? When do you cut ties when it gets to much? When do YOU prioritise your own mental health over a relationship with your father. It’s hard.

Don’t burn yourself to keep others warm - something I’ve had to learn over the years. The importance of self-care and boundaries, especially with a narcissistic, manipulative, selfish and clinically unwell father, currently in hospital after a nasty fall.

The pace of AI right now is wild! Thats why you're seeing it everywhere. True AI cannot be replicated by some "clever programming" and those attempting it (I haven't come across such things) can be easily found out if you have the know how.

I have built a modern looking CET table that pulls data from the "Mean Central England Temperature" txt file by the UKMO every week. It also has a handy dashboard that'll tell you the mean for the most recent winter. Feedback welcome.

Currently in beta cettracker.netlify.app

I’ve not had any alerts like that. Do you need to do something?

Hardly surpising but what is more interesting to me is the shift in platforms. With @bsky.app growing rapidly it would be good to see it in the rankings. techcrunch.com/2024/11/27/t...

Decent first day in Fort William, if a little wet. Fortunately the weather improves from tomorrow.
