@ElleGray I remember reading The Veldt, but not this one. Will give it a read👍

The gifting season is coming up. I highly recommend checking out the SUMAK ONLINE STORE associated with the Santiago Partnership. You can find some very unique items and your money isn't going to a Big Tech giant like Amazon or Walmart. This store is built to help a community in Ecuador. All items are made locally to Ecuador. My wife is heavily involved in this partnership, so I'm not just recommending something that isn't worthwhile. Give it a look and act sooner rather than later. It's not easy shipping items from long distances.

@reiver Stories like these are great because many people seem to have this notion that technically minded folks are born knowing everything. They miss seeing the long journey of learning and discovery that knowledge takes and also the fulfillment it can bring!
@DavidBHimself True. I have gone through a lot of books, music, and movies from then. Tragic and beak sci-fi was definitely formative for me.
@sirjerrykhurl He didn't want that sandwich anyways if it was hard enough to break a laptop.
@sundogplanets I saw this back in January and thought of you,. You might already know about it.
I never experienced the 1970's. Tell me something good or bad that you experienced from that decade that doesn't exist anymore. Could be just personal stuff, boosts appreciated.

I had to do a double take at the floor…we’re programmed to see faces.
@ajroach42 @datarama I think so. I’m still processing what I think about some of his views, but the comparisons he made to feudalism are just so visible when you start looking at it that way.
@datarama @ajroach42 I read Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism last week and that was the author’s premise. A good read.
Took Heidi to watch her first movie in the "cinema" today. She made it and had a good time! We also spent last night sleeping under the moon and stars on the trampoline...@mary tapped out early😂 At least she got some decent sleep. Seeing your 6YO daughter's beautiful face in the moonlight while she looks at you and whispers, "I love you", beats pretty much anything.

A pretty cool thing about the Fediverse:
It will still be around in a decade. Even two decades.
Usenet still exists. IRC still exists. Email still exists. When you build platforms on open protocols and standards, it doesn't actually matter what corporations try and do to enshittify it. So long as there are people who are still willing to run instances, and users who still want to talk to one another without going through some corporation's platform, it'll still be here.

Y’all. My heart (and belly) is so full at the end of these two weeks at the John C. Campbell Folk School. I can’t tell you how lucky I feel that I was able to take the time out of my “real life” to do a deep dive building new skills and honing some rusty ones. Being surrounded by folx from all kinds of backrounds who were also diving into their respective crafts and arts.
I’m more than a little emotional about heading home in the morning!
So. Here’s a picture of the result of all that work:
@mycrowgirl Beautiful piece of work! I’m overjoyed when I see folks doing things like this with their lives.
@moof That really puts into perspective how much has changed in roughly three human lifespans…
