At one point in the past the only other person I'd met who'd heard of "MELONIA" referred to Caliban as "The most authentically Swedish cartoon character ever designed" and I'm not sure I'm qualified to speak on it but it FEELS correct.
Rod Serling is probably the coolest guy of the 20th century. Looked cool, sounded cool, fought Nazis, hated John Wayne, wrote the screenplay for Planet of the Apes. Honestly dunks all the hell over any male influencer guy.
I got a little--but not too--maudlin about an old blog post yesterday. Having a long running blog with persistent links is a chance to reflect on change anytime I want. And sometimes I want to. artlung.com/blog/2026/03...
I am eggs of all kinds. I am the Chrome Dinette. And you are my sofa.
I used to hit Thornhill Broome periodically when I lived in Simi Valley and Moorpark.
I like piers — though the most famous bodysurfing is the jetty at The Wedge. But anywhere can be great.
Panorama from the Ocean Beach pier to the jetties; the sky is clear blue, and a handful of people and dogs on the sand as waves break. Main lifeguard tower is visible on one side, and in the distance portable tower 2 is visible.
A bit of new swell came in and I had a great time bodysurfing this morning at Ocean Beach. #SanDiego #Beach #panorama
i only like when these posts come out because it shines a brighter light on how even pre-ai, developers are conditioned to cut corners and make lazy mistakes under the corporate speak of ”efficiency” and “automation” which is funny because of how punk rock a lot of them think they are
Front of 1966 Batman card. Batman on left facing a huge hawklike bird creature coming in with talons out. By batman, inside bat logo reads WINGED GIANT. I'm not sure who the artist is unfortunately.
Back of same card. Has a description about Batman having to capture some huge birds created by a mad scientist. Copyright, patent info stuff in fine print.
1966 Topps Batman card I got a few years back.

Panorama of Pacific Beach with a few folks on the beach, Crystal Pier is prominent and shown in full, under a sunny sky
I had a good time at Pacific Beach today. A truly lovely day. #SanDiego #Beach #Panorama
This is an article about a topic near and dear to my heart, the fact that there are basically no archives for a lot of the important music magazines and it drives me crazy

Years ago I wrote about naive cynicism, which is the posture of being sophisticated, knowing, and worldweary often worn by those who don't actually have a firm grasp on what's going on but have surrendered to what they claim to oppose and are trying to convince others to do the same.
I traded potential blog post titles with Sara Jakša and wrote a post.

My ex swore by this. It's not my thing but I get it.
Fried potatoes are, well, fried--and a fried starch with salt, can carry or accompany almost any flavor.
i saw the interactive xkcd on hackernews and decided to make it render a real npm graph
it uses webcontainers to `npm i {pkg}`, then renders the bricks based on the dep tree scaled by disk size

Thanks for inspiring me. Two experiences came to my mind right away as I read your post.

For the March #IndieWeb blogging carnival, the topic is "Museum memories." I took a cue from @artlung.com and reflected on two different museum experiences that came to my mind this morning. It was also a fun exercise to list different museums I have visited.

You may not need that “AI” voice thing that reads your web pages aloud to users. It comes free in the browser:

• Firefox’s and Chrome’s reader mode text-to-speech,
• Safari’s Speech feature.

For the March #IndieWeb blogging carnival, the topic is "Museum memories" which I didn't suspect would be an inspirational topic for me! artlung.com/blog/2026/03...
Your email proffer to suggest I commit fraud is unwelcome. Also, the sentence "This is a legitimate arrangement—no risk to you." is not as reassuring as you imagine.
