Battling castles on wheels? Wanderburg might be my new favourite thing

Wanderburg is nuts. A roguelike where you build up a castle on wheels (or legs) and battle through various locations and it instantly hooked me.

Long run 16km, sadly achilles didn't hold and the pain got elevated so much that I had to stop the run.

Only 7 weeks till my next marathon and with the current situation I'm not sure if I can make it to the start line.

**Anyway, my next video is out, enjoy: youtu.be/mFi0b5X49pk **

Oh! I'm cutting down my mileage even more this week with the hope that I can recover on time. Any tips for managing achilles recovery?

If you were previously on the electoral register for the old NUI and Trinity Seanad constituencies and want to retain your vote you have to re-register for the new Higher Education Constituency - this replaces the old constituencies and there is no automatic transfer of your vote to the new register. Deadline is this Thursday

If you are a graduate of a third level institution that wasn't previously eligible to vote, you may be now. Same deadline applies

One of the best shows on national Irish Radio is 'The Blue of the Night'. It's about as concrete a definition of 'eclectic music' that you can get. I've heard everything on there from jangly bluegrass to haunting electronic trance to Himalayan throat singing.

I just found out the host, Bernard, is on Mastodon: @BernardBlue

Last November I was approached by Dublin City University (DCU) to be one of five artists in residence creating work for a project called SEED.

The brief is to create an artwork that presents complex environmental data without prioritising the sense of vision in the artwork. As a **visual** artist, this is obviously a challenge.

Even more challenging – it is at the artists' discretion what data to use. Sometimes having no limitation on a project can just make it more daunting.

Sometimes I think my #solarpunk ideas are very original. Decentralized countries. 3D printers manufacturing anything. Biophotovaltic panels that grow in backyards to power homes. And then I read an article like this and I remember that a lot of other writers like me are reacting to our present dilemmas and troubles, and we probably grew up on the same kind of scifi stories so we most likely end up with the same solutions. See #books to read inside.
