Just now found your Muppet tarot deck. I'm not usually a big fan of pop culture based tarots because they often display a pretty poor understanding of tarot archetypes, but the way you put this deck together is SO SMART. Bravo.

Thank you SO MUCH! This is such a sweet message. I totally agree- I think a lot of pop culture tarot decks are very lazy, and I tried really hard to really match each archetype to the character.

I read your blog entry on sharing ideas and agree there has to be a delicate balance between sharing ideas and forcing your beliefs...you did a really nice job of bringing a social topic to the round table and an even better job of showing what it meant to you!

@getcubed. Thank you! I love birds too. With that deer there were three others, two babies with the white spots. But my camera isn't the best and they were far away, so all of the pictures are a bit blurry because my hands were a bit shaky. I wish I could have shared them.

Hey people, I didn't betray anyone. I had to deactivate the site's profile for a certain reason, but, in what concerns the buttons, I pretend to put them in another page.

I haven't had the chance to read the book myself yet but what you discuss in your latest piece reminds me of the premise of Tamara Kneese's 'Death Glitch' - thought I'd flag that up as it may be of interest.

I really enjoyed your "obtf" post. I've collected everything involved for further investigation. My simple bashscript for "shorts" pales beside obtf. I use another bashscript written by xwmx on github called nb. It's far more robust and collects many things for me.

Thank you! I have lots of improvements in mind, but I wanted to get it out there for others to test. I t hink I've tried nb before. jrnl is great too.

wrote my first poem in a long while. i saw a prompt about breaking away from things and asked myself why ive broken away from this ritual itself, and many others i set for myself. that's what this is about https://siph.neocities.org/library/muse/

there is a lot of honesty in this piece that is very well-balanced with a certain artistic flair. I really like the format of the Shakespearean sonnet and the rhyme scheme, I think it adds to the musicality of the piece quite well!

incredibly relatable, love your use of Icarion as a word. also, don't know if you did this on purpose but "i pray everyday for my body to align with the plans i fashion in my mind" is very tran/non-binary coded, which i loved.

Sometimes you read the first line of a poem and know it'll be good. This is one of those poems. The rest followed through, but that first line is going to stick with me.

I finally posted an essay that I've been working on for about 3 months about revolutions in systems and platforms for posting content online and how de-corporatizing them will not lead to the kind of free, equitable internet people hope for. It was one of those things originally meant for the Spare Words section, but then morped into a 4,000 word essay against my will.

Bravo! I enjoyed reading! I love these quotes, "How internet discourse change if we allowed people to learn in public, which of necessity means making mistakes?" and "good internet just as importantly depends on our tolerance for incompleteness and imperfection." Finding human pockets of the internet is what keeps me surfing and doom scrolling. Those fleeting moments give me hope.

"everyone’s feeds became well-crafted soundbites", accidentally read as well-scrambled soundbites and it seems to fit my overall feeling of social media sites. I could relate a lot to your writings on academia as well (I also left, for various reasons). I made a short comic panel about social media recently with a similar conclusion that going at our own pace instead of feeling pressured to post seems better.

Overall I could relate a lot to your writing and it was kind of refreshing, actually, to just read someone else feeling frustrated about the whole experience

This was a great piece of writing. Very relatable too. Made me think a lot about my own social media use and experiences (I'm currently on Mastodon, but I have my reservations) among other things.

i love your distinction between a private journal and a public blog -- i think the web has made externally-oriented the default rather than internally-oriented! if we write something but no one reads it, what was the point? similarly if we had a thought/reflection. i often wonder whether we'd be happier/healthier if we were internally-oriented primarily, if sitting and daydreaming were a natural activity on its own.

Thank you all for your kind words. I was kind of frustrated by how much time this essay sucked up, so I am glad that my curmudgeonly opinions resonate.

emilynhoward 3 months ago

Also, sorbier, you remind me of the Pascal quote: "All of man’s misfortune comes from one thing, which is not knowing how to sit quietly in a room." A good reminder humans have been dealing with this long before the internet.
