My brownie recipe is very good.

I only make my brownie recipe every few years.

My brownie recipe contains two sticks of butter and four cups of sugar for an 8" square pan.

These are all related.

@sixohsix aawwwww I was all excited to come up with something, but I personally can't stand anise in anything, so I wouldn't be able to evaluate whether it was any good.

@faethverity Can I venture to suggest that thinking on it and feeling through it are valuable in their own right, even if you don't act on it?

Words matter. The news media's insistence on the term "migrant" instead of "refugee" and "immigrant", even when the UNHCR is involved, is destructive, propagandistic, and must be resisted.

"Art in the age of mechanical reproduction" GET USED TO IT PAINTING come and join music and theater down here in the "what am I if I am reproduced" thorns.

@elplatt what the Hell coast to coast flight takes eight hours!?

(Also, interesting historical note, "flyover country" was coined by a Michigander living in Montana to self-describe. "I recall being annoyed that the places I loved in America were places that air travel allowed you to avoid.)

@liaish @sashakovich

I hear good things about Learn Python the Hard Way, but no first hand experience with it. I would also recommend having people eager and willing to talk through problems and best practices (because I'm always that person).

I also like Audrey and Daniel Greenfield's stuff, but don't know if they have a general Python intro. Mostly Django specific.

@john Glad you like it!

I have some backburner ideas for additions, in keeping with humane and privacy-first principles, but right now I'm slammed with paid work, which has its upsides and downsides!

@john Thanks for the request! Unfortunately, I'm using the icons from FontAwesome, and they don't have Pleroma, yet.

(Managing the design and licensing issues around variant-designs of all the icons would be too much for me, but if you can get them to add Pleroma, I'll add it right away!)

@clinkingdog I don't multiple monitor much, but when I do, every OS I've ever used has been terrible at it, so I don't know what user experience you're hoping for, but I haven't found it.

@InvaderXan Maitake is also sublimely, face-meltingly delicious. Like "fuck why can't I afford that every day and live and die in luxury" delicious.

@InvaderXan Have you seen Dan Olson's critique of the editing, too? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDclQowcE9I in case you need it.

@baldur I hadn't understood how addictive Twitter was until I stopped using it and used Mastodon instead; the contrast was palpable. I realized that there was no corporate interest invested in manipulating my attention here.

Sometimes you have to go back to your musical roots. Sitting here (in Limbo…) listening to "The Harder They Come" and feeling like I know where I come from.

@elplatt That splinched my head.
