Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate it!

Here’s a picture of my pet chicken, Garbin, in a Christmas hat. If it seems a little off, it’s because she really wasn’t cooperative…

This holiday season I’ve been enjoying the collection of Kmart in-store cassette tapes stored by the Internet Archive.

You should be able to find them simply by searching “Kmart December” on archive.org.

Might play them on Christmas day for the family. Assuming they don’t pin me down and turn it off…

I’ve just discovered the super handy hue-rotate CSS filter.

I’m using it as such: filter: invert(95%) hue-rotate(180deg);

It lets me invert an item, but keeps the colours as they should be by flipping the hue back. I’m finding use implementing it on iframe embeds to force darkmode.

I was scrolling through Fedi and saw the account @tpope@hachyderm.io. I wondered if it was the Vim guy so I clicked on his account to check. His bio didn’t disappoint.

If you read this Tim, thanks for your work.
