  • Easter Update

    The something wrong in my site seems to be my home network. Typing from coffee shop network seems to work fine, I’ll still need to troubleshoot my home network issue, but at least I can post during coffee shop opening hours. If I can’t get my issues sorted by the end of next week, I am seriously considering getting a competing internet service provider.

    However, I wanted to post something nice, and here is a GIF of a tree near my home which has fluffy white flowers and I took some clips last week and on Good Friday. The last week’s clips were better (though still a bit wonky) and I used a couple those for a GIF.

    Happy Easter to everyone!

    I considered reusing the eggs picture from last year, or something new Easter themed, but maybe this will serve as a substitute? Longer posts once I have dealt with the internet issue. Apologies.

  • Happy Palm Sunday!

    Apologies for a short post – there is something wrong in my site.

    Nevertheless, I wish everyone a Happy Palm Sunday!

    The palm in the picture is not involved in the original incident and was photographed on different day.

  • Squirrel Eating Ginkgo Fruit

    I have been out of synch for a while, but today I realized that it is Shrove Tuesday, AKA Mardi Gras. In Finland, this day is known as laskiaistiistai, and people used to go on laskiainen downhill sledding (alternatively on laskiaissunnuntai, February 15th this year) and eat laskiaispulla which is sweet wheat bun cut like a burger but filled with whipped cream and marzipan or berry jam. Then begins lent and after that it is again Easter.

    Being unprepared, did not eat laskiaispulla, and would not have time for a day of downhill sledding, even if Berkeley weather would have allowed it (hint, there is no snow, though it was hailing a bit.) But I have a number of video clips, some maybe presentable, waiting to be processed and their fates decided, and last weekend I discovered an October 19th, 2025 squirrel eating ginkgo fruit that would be fun to post. While not exactly topical to this religious celebration, here it is, anyways.

    I was surprised last year that ginkgo fruits are yellow.

    Maybe that should not have been surprising, as their autumn leaves are also yellow.

    And Happy Chinese New Year, too!
