A chronological view of *everything* I've posted here, since the beginning of time (or the blog's inception, whichever comes first).

And in my website bind them
I definitely didn’t expect seeing a new major jQuery release in 2026, but here it is! This is the first major release in 10 years and it doesn’t bring a lot of new things on the surface, but seems to have been a major overhaul behind the scenes. Looks like a future v5 will bring in bigger changes.
jQuery might be old by JS framework standards, but it’s still very useful, and I actually still use it almost daily at my job.
The Truth About Lying (and why we do it) (video)
Excuse me, I’m in a Lies of P obsession right now. This video (which contains some light spoilers) talks about the Truth/Lie choices in the game, which are an incredible narrative device, and how that relates to what makes us human.
It’s not surprising that a game based on the story of Pinocchio would have Lies and “becoming human” as parts of its theme, but I really like how they made it all make sense organically and not just like something they tacked in there because they had to.
Lies of P Overture

This prequel to Lies of P is everything that was good about the base game, but elevated into a 12-hour long campaign of pure awesomeness.
The story, level design, bosses and weapons are just state of the art. The final chapter had my eyes all teared up all the time.
Each chapter even has self-contained small side quests that don’t give much of a challenge but are great pieces of world-building to make Krat an even cooler setting.
This is a very interesting read that compares the internet’s development to that of the automobile, but I also want to highlight the design of the article itself. So good 🤌
This is awesome: an entire site dedicated to shoelaces, how to lace, tie or simply learn about them. It even includes the “world’s fastest shoelace knot”, created by the website’s author himself! I gotta try it out.

Raw and gut-wrenching are perfect adjectives for this one. It wants to get its message across and pulls no punches in doing so: nobody wins a nuclear war.
You might have read before that I love the Catppuccin color theme. It’s the same one I use on this website! I also love using that theme on the apps that allow me to, like Obsidian, VS Code and Vivaldi.
To match all of that, I need some wallpapers that fit the palette too. And I just came across this tool that automatically adapts the color palette of any image you upload to a theme of your choice! I’ve had good results with it so far. Definitely makes my desktop look way nicer :)
The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers (Extended Edition)
Reviewed on Jan 06, 2026
While this is probably my least favorite of the trilogy, it’s still one of the best movies ever made. An outstanding achievement in all regards. I can’t believe these movies exist.
The extra scenes for the extended edition are also pretty neat, and add some extra context that is very welcome for a fan like me. The overall movie pacing gets a bit worse which is why it’s totally understandable why they were cut from the theatrical release. And another reason I’m glad the extended editions exist!
I just wish the final Saruman scene was in this movie instead of the next one. I feel like it’d wrap around this movie’s story a bit more nicely.
St. Peter Church in Gramado
Downtown Gramado is proof that something can be both overrated and incredibly beautiful. Nothing beats it on a rainy winter night.
Taken in Gramado, RS, Brazil.
Cozy house by the lake
Araucárias are my favorite tree. They are charming, look very unique, and their seeds make for amazing winter food.
Taken in Nova Petrópolis, RS, Brazil.

Paçoquinha on the beach
She was both terrified of the sea and ecstatic about the sand.
