I seriously want to do a round table on "how writing groups can support their neurodivergent members". If this sounds like a panel you'd like to be on. Reach out.
I just had a very rough experience and want to prevent it from happening to someone else.

@cwebber you mean Matt Ridley, UK politician and climate denialist?

Mornin’. Didn’t realise a formal #introduction was de rigueur on here - my bad. I’m the Bee Guy - the founder of the first and only native wild bee sanctuary on the planet - The Bee Sanctuary of Ireland. Not for profit social enterprise 24/7 365 advocating for our native wild bees. Not about honey bees - they’re fine. Only on here for the #bees & #planet. Heart on my sleeve, head in the stars, feet in a muddy puddle. Big plans. Need your support. Thoughtful brave disruption. Language matters.1/n
Hello Fedi friends,
Sorry I've been a little MIA lately, but it's been a hectic time, returning to Paris after 2+ months away.
Some news about the Fediverse HOPE t-shirts:
The blue one had a little flaw (logo too high up) so I'm having it redone in the same soft material as the red one (which turned out perfect). This means I have a SPARE to give away at #BerlinFediDay next week (it looks good TBH!)
📏 Size small unisex (but quite big IMHO)
If you're interested & you're coming reach out 🤗

I missed the cold air in my face on the mornings.
Darling is "a translation layer that lets you run macOS software on Linux", think Wine for macOS. It's still experimental and incomplete but promising.
@amoroso I wouldn't hold my breath that this becomes useful anytime soon, if ever. Three months since the last release, doesn't handle any GUI apps. This doesn't seem to be actively worked on. I found it like a year ago, and now I've rediscovered it's nearly at the same spot when I found it.
WOW!
For the first time in recorded history, a coyote has actually caught a roadrunner
This is absolutely true: no one has ever seen a coyote catch a roadrunner until now.

It's often tempting to join one of those "tough guy" gyms with the wooden sign and the questionable smoothies, but it also means dealing with "the locals" ... you need to earn your place and with tough customers like these you may ask "is it worth it?"
One easy way to impress a crew like this is to just tell them that you've "caught the red dot" then show them a laser pointer in a box and quickly close it.
Instant respect.
One of the Kids had a birthday recently and asked Kid2 to make a cake. They chose the tiger from the Women's Weekly birthday cake book and Kid2 made a chocolate cake from scratch and then did the buttercream icing.
When she went to colour it, though, she discovered we didn't have yellow food colouring.
'It's a shame we don't have a spice or something we could use...' she mused.
'Omg,' I said. 'TURMERIC! It's a really mild flavour and you'll only need a little. The icing is super sweet and the chocolate cake will mask the earthy taste of the turmeric. Give it a try!'
And so she did (with a little bit of icing in a separate bowl just in case). And we taste tested it and it was great! I think it turned out amazingly. What a star she is 🥰
@courtneyr It doesn't seem to be working. :(
@phillycodehound due to how much info is in my vault, it loads slowly. Limits of @obsidian Publish. Give it a minute to load and reminisce about dial up modem sounds.
Give me a CLI over a GUI any day.
I post a lot of stories about cops using Flock to stalk former or current partners, but don't forget that cops also use Flock to intimidate and harass people who try to hold them accountable.
@lauren my fan and air purifier has been on non stop throught out winter. The place feels claustrophobic when its close up.
This weekend we having first taste of springs heat temperatures range from 30°C to 35°C (86°F to 95°F). Not looking for summer as it going be awful with out having ac.
@melissadancey Yeah, if it's anything like what's been happening here it won't be pretty.
Hey bedroom musicians and indie artists of fedi, do you have recordings that you need mixed for you? I can do that! I have almost two decades worth of experience.
Are you a singer-songwriter curious about how your songs would sound flushed out with a full arrangement? I can do that for you!
Indie rock artists! Curious about having your work remixed, but worry about potentially alienating your fanbase? I'm an Indietronica artist with roots in Indie and Punk, give me a shot!
One thing that in kind of a specialty of mine is music that is going for a rougher/rawer not overproduced sound, but with a bit of studio polishing and flourishes. If you're going for an old-school punk sound, or an updated twist on old-school punk - give me a shot!
Check out this review of an e.p. that I mixed (and also recorded the vocals for):

This shoegaze album that was my first recording and mixing job. They were trying to mix the atmosphere of "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine with the rawer/rougher sound of their first album "Isn't Anything" and the "You made Me realise" e.p. It ended up being a bit of a hit on the underground nugaze blogs at the time:
