The Gospel according to Igor
refuses the new #investiture
where newly ossified rules
dictate whats acceptable
under a specific umbrella
where everything is slaved
dictated by the margins
that harvests the millions
with a pittance for a dollar
the years of voluntary labour

@stephruhle.bsky.social Sorry. Marc Short is not adding anything worthwhile to your show.
His timorous grin is annoying.
Despite what F47 did to Pence, we can still see that Short likely voted for F47 in 2024.

Back on the fitness horse. (It is a proud, diffident horse that throws me off every few years and snorts at me derisively, daring me to try again.)

Starting mornings with an admixture of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, frozen fruit, oatmeal, chia seeds & whey protein.

I call it Breakfast Spackle.

Also "frictionmaxxing", jfc

Modish is a very useful (and apparently little known) testing tool for anyone needing to work on a Citation Style Language (CSL) bibliographic style.

But if anyone knows a better way to automate regression testing for CSL, I'd love to hear about it!

Kobold facts: young dragons can be intimidated by their kobolds. The draconic zeal of kobolds when in their presence can be overwhelming and disorienting, especially if they get t-shirts printed up. Kobolds can be quieted (and further excited) by judicious use of force and intimidation.
