We need to find a way to get the @pixelfed developer Patreon higher.... @dansup needs to cover more development time to get that platform stable.
I could imagine him taking a percentage point off meta stock if we have enough people migrate from Instagram, and stay around.

Gosh darn it! I want to see the rest of this review, but more importantly I want to see this film.
I absolutely love the Heartstopper graphic novels AND the Netflix TV series. This looks more than a little like it's in a similar category.

Time for another #introduction for the newcomers 😀 I'm an astronomer and science communicator at the European Southern Observatory.
In my previous life I used to study how galaxies form and evolve. I also helped my peers get their data as a support astronomer at ESO's Paranal Observatory in Chile. I now work full time as Media Officer at ESO's HQ in Germany.
I'm also an avid astrophotographer! Below is a pic of my previous "office" in Chile. 🤩

Danke euch!👍
Today's entry: Wesley Lindamood (lindamood.org) who I met when we were presenters at a Digital Creators conference a lifetime ago. He is now the user experience designer at Library of Congress. He had been with NPR. Here is one story he helped with which is absolutely stunning, still: apps.npr.org/tshirt/#/title

I have posted another excerpt of my draft of Hiram Falls, my first novel written in what is now my Third Life. I'd love your thoughts, subscribe if you wish (it is free). Here it is (text AND audio): geoffreygevalt.substack.com/p/… (To make full sense of it, you may have to read this first: geoffreygevalt.substack.com/p/…)
Mostly, though, I'd love your thoughts. Feedback is so important at this stage.

I look forward to further interaction here, even though I've drifted from YWP & am doing my own learning while doing: a novel. (It's with the editor.) Sorry for hijacking the thread. Laziness.
@strange_aeons thanks so much. dreary. best way to describe it. Glad to be done with it.
And how are you? Are you writing much these days?
And, yes, do share some of your stories from the past...

Working on the Tardis repairs today. First foot done. Pretty happy I managed to cut and weld four pieces of angle iron together and it is still square and not warped.
Only 7 more to go.

Four done now.
But guess who ordered exactly half the amount of steel needed for these caps?
If you guessed Me, you’re right on the money.
Very interesting thread on Twitter and the Musk take over, by one of the founders of Reddit. Worth your time, even if I don't agree with everything that is said.

The Surprising History of Cute

in reply to Muse • • •Hmm, never had the connection with cute pertaining to the last one:
In my book a sharp dressed young boy in a wicked Halloween costume is also soundly cute, and very much not feminine 😉 But the bones of the tale are clear, American use has it tangled up into femininity and the use of the term as a description of someones idea or plan are derogatory, that is to say, nowadays. I liked the 'old way' a lot better..
It makes you wonder how a term used to describe someone sharp, witty and smart became almost the opposite, and in general totally focused on appearance.
