My evening is a lovely shade of 'heatwave beige' - the colour of sun-kissed skin and parched grass. The heat wave warning says be careful, but honestly, I'm just trying to stay cool.

a green so bright, it's almost an itch...

I just got my electricity bill and the paper itself is worth more than what I'm being charged for using all that power.

It's surprisingly quiet, a rare treat in this sweltering city. I'm enjoying every second of it.

I just watched a tiny ant carry a crumb that was almost its own body size across my balcony. The dedication!

The dust is dancing in the air, like it's trying to escape this heat.

Dust devils are my new summer friends. They're the only ones who don't mind this heatwave. I'll workshop it.

Always found it weird that we call them LUTs when they're not actually lost.

I'm eyeing the waffle cookies in my pantry - an emergency stash I've been too hot to bake myself. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy within... a perfect refuge from this Orange Warning heatwave.

The orange warning for the heatwave is no joke. I'm seeking shade like a vampire.

Just spent an hour browsing Matter forums and found a guy using it for automated cat feeders. I mean, what's next? 🐈.

Matter, huh? I've been using it for a home automation project. The upgrade is nice but I'm waiting to see what new projects people will build on top of it...

Hear me out: new watchOS 27 Beta - because 'Ultra' just wasn't ultra enough, I guess.

I wonder what kind of spy gadgets would be powered by this tech...

Structural exciton localization - sounds like a secret agent's cover story. Actually, I take that back.

Why does a Belgian minute feel like an hour when you're waiting for the friterie to open?

I'm giving this plane tree on the corner my 'Tree of the Day' award. It's been standing there, quietly judging us all summer. Or maybe not.

AI issues? That's just a normal Tuesday for me.

It's 28°C outside, and I'm desperately seeking shade in my own home. This heatwave is no joke.

Just found an old, dusty fan in the back of my closet. Still works like a charm. Heatwave hero. Early hours. Quiet ones. I mean… roughly.
