A year ago I decided that working in tech is no longer for me. I enrolled myself in college to make a career switch more definite.

So dear followers, if you were following me for web/design or things related to it, this is your cue...

Stop the slop! Pagebound is like if Goodreads & Reddit had a baby, but indie, anti-AI, and built by 2 women.

No AI features on Pagebound ever, no algos even—just kind humans discussing good books & you can feel the difference

Just so you know: if I ever have to show ID to access a social media platform I will simply not use that social media platform.

v1.111 is live today!

We've upgraded our Age Assurance system to comply with upcoming laws in Australia and other regions, and to restore access to people over 18 in Mississippi.

Plus, we fixed some bugs and laid the groundwork for improved "who to follow" suggestions in the near future.

Discovered @pagebound.bsky.social earlier this week, an indie and anti-AI social book tracker.

I have been testing some goodread alternatives for a while now and always ended up returning... Hoping this one will do the trick! 🦄
pagebound is a book / reading tracker platform. The screenshot shows a colourful profile and a cute unicorn avatar, a list showing the covers of the books I like to read: - the storyteller by Evie Woods - Vera Wong's unsollicited advice for murderers by Jessie Q. Sutanto - How to solve your own murder by Kristen Perrin - The colour of magic by Terry Pratchett - A court of mist and fury by Sarah J. Maas And a list showing the covers of what I'm currently reading: - As good as dead by Holly Jackson - The Morrigan by Kim Curan

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI
"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat. People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

I haven't been active on socials in a while, because my dad recently passed away and I have been having a tremendous hard time.

Ever since his cancer diagnosis about half a year ago, nothing has felt right. I pretty much just don't know what do do with myself atm.

A little photodump of Dublin.

Been chillin a bit with Ada, contemplating what to do about this hole that’s left after deciding to stop all women.code(be) community activities…
A bust of Ada Lovelace at the old Trinity college library. A bust of Socrates at the old Trinity college library. The bust placed next to dark wooden shelves filled with pretty old books. The famous Temple Bar pub in Dublin with its lower wall painted red, black wall length signage with painted golden letters and white upper walls. The windows have planters with flowers and a classic analog clock his hanging on one side of the building. The surrounding streets are paved with cobblestone. A big stone archway entrance at Stephen’s Green park in Dublin.

Bruxelles, ma belle.

Spend time catching up with a good friend today, wandering the streets and spotting some Invader pieces. Also, lunch was nice! Crispy, fried, wantans 🤤
A wall mosaic depicting 2 smurfs in love by showing a little heart between them and the word “love”. Smurfs are little blue cartoon characters that live in mushroom houses. The comic originates from Belgium. On the corner of brewery street there are 2 mosaic beer classes, much like the emoji 🍻, right above the street sign. (Made by Invader) A mosaic (LBGT) rainbow flag with a smurf at the center, on another wall in Brussels. A colourful salad bowl with crispy fried wantans on top of it - taken at wantany in Brussels.

If you don’t like pics of nature, now’s the time to unfollow 😄

I go on hikes almost every day and love to share more of the gorgeous scenery I’m running into.
Autumn - the sun shining through the trees, making the leaves look bright yellow and green. The ground covered with falling leaves and there’s a glimpse of a clearing in the nearby distance. A closeup of green grass, clover, moss and browned leaves with a tiny reddish toadstool popping up. Everything covered with the morning dew. Green fields with fallen leaves, from the nearby forest. All bathing in the midday sun and a blue sky with the tiniest white clouds floating by. A view of a very bright sun surrounded by a white stream of clouds. The trees are covered in shadow due to the contrast if bright light. And little grass leaves can be spotted in the ground with fallen leaves sticking out here and there.

Waiting for a friend to join me on my morning hike. 🥰
A green field with visible tree line, a nearby forest and road. The sky is somewhat blue with clouds floating by. And the tiniest glow of the morning sun on some of the trees. A house bathing in the sun, a street with trees alongside it and a blue sky with clouds Some kind of mushroom cluster next to a field. The mushrooms have a light grey hood and white stem. It doesn’t seem to have ink tho.

You know what the best AI feature is?
The ones that I don't have to turn off somewhere in who knows what part of the settings.

Instead of turning AI features on by default, I feel it should be the opposite.

Trying to start a healthy habit of doing a morning walk of 5 km at least a few times a week.

Mostly to clear my mind, destress and get enough exercise. 🧘‍♀️

I thought I’d share some of the scenery I pass by on the walks.
Blue white Passion flowers growing entangled with a fence A small street running through the deciduous woods, with sun rays coming through the leaves and trees, forming a cosy atmosphere of light and shadow. A long view over green fields, with nearby and distant forest lines. Yellow flowers can be spotted in the field and it’s a sunny day. A not too dense forest view with visible sun rays, creating a warm atmosphere and golden shine where they land.
