With all the new users pouring in, I thought I'd post a new #introduction as well. 🙂

Hi! I'm Gina from #Amsterdam, #TheNetherlands. I'm interested in tech, but post mostly non-tech related topics. Stuff like memes, cats, woodworking, DIY house reno, gym, cooking, gardening, the occasional existential crisis, seasonal depression, dating, etc. A broad range of things that are happening in my life.

I work in IT but will someday move somewhere warmer and start a retreat / sandwichshop / B&B idk.

Would anyone be interested in hearing about our #FOSS adventure? We''re a feminist non-profit in the midst of migrating from Windows to #Linux: servers and desktops! We try to be as #opensource as possible, for ethical, security and privacy reasons.

The driver is ok btw 🙂

Meanwhile in #Amsterdam where this tiny car tried to take on a bus 😅

Of course I come across one of the most interesting books I've read since uni on the day that I have my biggest thesis deadline. 🙄

The Tragedy of Heterosexuality by Jane Ward looks at heterosexuality from a queer perspective. It views heterosexual culture as a construct, rather than as something that "has always been" and deconstructs modern ideas of heterosexuality, its power structures and its consequences. Wish I could keep reading but I have to write about boring research methods nnngggh.

After sniffing some flowers, visiting the communal litterbox, and playing with his bestie Panda Cat, it's time for a well deserved nap.

Geez I wish I was a cat. #catsofmastodon #thebestlife

Happy #caturday and #goodmorning #fediverse 😊☕️

CAN I JUST FIND THIS PLACE ALREADY.

With a few mountains in like a two hours drive radius so there's an option to go hiking.

Also a garden around the house so I can grow my own veggies and keep chickens and goats.

And a small bakery with coffee and pastries nearby owned by an elderly man or lady who's language I do not speak but we'll communicate by hands and smiles and drink coffee together.

With a terrace and a pizza oven outside so we can have pizza and wine while overlooking the sea.

Not asking for much, just a small beachfront house in Croatia or Greece.

One of those days.

Final verdict: the taste is good! It's a bit dense, but overall ok. 8/10 🙂

Thank you for joining my little #baking saga. #bananabread

Lol zero selfcontrol.

Alright they *seem* ok, now the hardest part.. waiting for them to cool off. 👀

Still 30 minutes to go and both tins already look very poofy.

I'm baking banana cake and I may have put in waaaay too much baking soda... we'll see if it completely overflows in about an hour. #bananabread
