Like everyone else I spend a lot of time on my phone during a regular day.

While on the bus on my way to work this morning the thought occurred to me that I should really make an effort to get back into meditation.

It’s been… a while since the last time I made a spaceship.

October sort of arrived without warning, so I don’t have much to post this time around.

We got back home from our trip to Budapest very late last night.

Week notes didn’t really do the trick for me so I though I’d try something different.

Artwork no. 12 for 2026 is done!

Over the last few months my visits to Mastodon and Bluesky have become less and less frequent.

I am an artist.

September is here.

It’s finally Saturday.

I’ve been a life-long black/death metal fan.

This is absolutely amazing.

Today marks the day where everyone in the house is back to their regular schedule.

Here’s a simple rule I’ve set for myself lately that has improved my life at least a little bit: If all you ever have to offer is a snarky comment I’m going to go ahead and hit that unfollow button.

Ever since I moved out from my parents house I’ve been living on my own.

So, I purchased a new pen again.

Jurassic Park computers in excruciating detail If this doesn’t scratch your nerd-itch then I don’t know what to do with you.

There may not have been any new art from me in the month of July, but at least I’m starting off strong in August.

📋Life It’s been a bit of a quiet week.

I was looking browsing my RSS reader today and this post from Andreas popped up reminding me that not only is it somehow August already (seriously, how?)

It’s the last day of July and it’ll be the first month this year where I won’t be posting any new artwork, because I haven’t been able to finish anything.

📋Life Second week of my summer vacation.

From Seth Rutledge on Mastodon: Here is your periodic reminder that the ONLY thing you need to do to be a musician is to make music.

Done By Humans Quoting from their website: We envision a future where human-made work is clearly recognizable, universally understood, and meaningfully valued.

At this point it’s been a little over a year since we officially moved into our new house, and we’ve gotten settled quite nicely.

Quite a few of the blogs I’m subscribed to do these weekly recap posts and I always enjoy reading them.

Vacation time is a good time for experiments and trying out new things.

One thing I’ve noticed over the last few months is how my OmniFocus has become a bit of a black hole.

Over the years I’ve heard much talk about the benefits and usefulness of keeping a regular journaling practice.

I try my best to do something creative every day.

Temperatures are approaching ridiculous levels here in the greater Oslo area these days.

It’s been a little over two months since I wrote about wanting to go a little more analogue with parts of my workflow.

My summer vacation has officially started and what better way to get things rolling than to spend my first day adding some features back to my website?

It’s a new month (yikes) so it’s time for another fresh batch of links.

I consider myself fairly well versed in the English language.

I’ve always enjoyed reading a good book but I’ve never been what you call a big reader.

Get the full resolution artwork from my Ko-Fi page!

I was quite excited about Raycast for Windows when I got invited to the beta back in July last year.

Yesterday was not what I’d call a good day.

I don’t make a lot of time for playing games these days.

The last few weeks have been absolutely brutal.

So, pretty much the day after my last blog post where I wrote about wanting to possibly move away from WordPress I started working on rebuilding my website with 11ty.

I’m once again contemplating a move away from WordPress.

May was a busy month, and I spend a week getting through a serious case of food poisoning, so I didn’t get to spend much time collecting interesting links.

As I’m writing this there is only about an hour left until the calendar ticks over to June 1st.

The YouTube algorithm just graced me with the trailer for this absolutely bonkers looking South Korean monster movie.

I wrote a note the other day about how I’d been dealing with a stomach bug (probably food poisoning) and was starting to feel like I was getting back to normal.
