My sprogs. A nice day after shitty weather. Beer. Comedy. Takeaway food. Getting into a freshly made bed after a long day. Sea swimming in the summer.

Not having to go to work, quit work at 40, am now 60.

Honestly I don’t remember anymore. Everything seems exhausting to me.

This thread has been very wholesome. Good to see people living good lives. Usually my feed is just doom and gloom so thanks for this post OP.

Coming home. My wife always does little reno projects to the house and i work on creating a nice garden. We could only afford something small, but we’ll never have kids so it’s a good forever home.

Dam I used to think I was gonna die partying young, now all these years later I get excited shopping for cactus soil.

Quiet mornings

To crush ny enemies, see them driven before me, and to hear the lamentations of their women!

Crashing fresh ice. Especially the one that has air underneath. It crackles really nice. It is very satisfying experience.

Learning something new and connecting with someone

Cooking and eating.

Books, good food, a good laugh, and my best friend. These are things that come to mind straight away, but there are certainly many others!

Helping others, having friendly interactions with people (online and offline), birds landing on your outstretched hand, when a happy dog looks up at you with their happy smiles, when a cat comes to see you after the owner says “She’s nervous around strangers”,… A solid sleep and feeling refreshed in the morning.

A good coffee, a cold drink on a hot day, when a seed has sprouted in my garden, a hefty burrito, a heavy thunderstorm, sunshine after days of rain, the cooling 5PM breeze on a stinking hot day, ibuprofen working on a headache, when you go shopping and one of the first things you try on fits really well so you don’t have to shop for hours, the first run down the hill (snow), when you come across a steal of a deal on something you’ve been wanting,… Too many to name.

What doesn’t bring me joy is when I need cold water from the tap and hot water comes out, or if the empty toilet roll hasn’t been replaced. 💀

Mostly alcohol, and @urheber@discuss.tchncs.de

Edit: My cat too

That moment when you’re stuck on a part of your code and you figure it out, write it, test it and it just works.

It’s rare, but when it happens, it feels very good.

Taking the bus. Just sitting and being able to have my thoughts for myself. Also walking.

Computer games but I really need to play less digital games and more analog games instead. Both have an enormous backlog but at least I have stopped buying more… Digital games.
