"but how do I build my brand?"
friend
you do not have to build your brand
you are free
I finished my stint as a Mozilla Fellow and now I'm relaunching my Patreon with a focus on, well, fixing social media.
This means I'm going to continue my concerted work trying to make the fediverse a better place, in the form of best practice guides for running instances, external advocacy, and technical tutorials and training so that more people can contribute software to the fediverse at large.
You can read a partial summary of my work so far at my new Patreon page!
https://www.patreon.com/noerbmu hey my pal noerbmu has a patreon, they do absolutely lovely art so you should go support them if you have a bit of disposable income
*ambient emotional support*
As the wise @sargoth says
*ambient emotional support*
have you questioned your gender yet today?

@noelle @impiaaa you cast Summon Snake
ROLL 1
welp
I guess it worked
@sargoth @impiaaa why do snakes
suddenly appear
every time you are near
would be nice
if your dice stopped
rolling ones
@impiaaa "the ship has been at sea for days, there is no land to be seen anywhere. you climb up the mast to see if you can spot any. ROLL 1. snakes appear, somehow"
@sargoth (disclosure idk dnd rules)
"Roll for damage."
"Two 1's."
"Critical snakes."
"What?"
"Two of the same number, so it's double damage…"
"Okay…"
"…and it's a 1, so it's snakes."
"Yeah. Wait, what? What does that mean though?"
"Snakes. The attack is snakes."
"How much damage does it do?"
"I guess, the enemy is a snake now."
"Oh, cool!"
"But it was critical, so you are too."
"Oh, darn."
"But you're friends now, so it's okay."
"Oh, yay!"
roll 1 for snakes
doesn't matter what the roll is for
1 means snakes
@self I remember friends going "hey, can you see this cool new emoji thing", and me responding "no, I can't, Trillian hasn't implemented it yet"
good times
the world was younger back then
As you grow older, you find yourself being interested in things which you can not, in good conscience, introduce new people to, yet which still exists in the world
for instance, the intricate relationships and differences between various builds of ancient softwares, and how they emerged over time due to factors which are utterly irrelevant today
anyway, I still think they should have called it Winamp 4
y'know
being able to casually mention that you wrote a thesis on fan fiction and Civilization 4 mods (Fall from Heaven 2 forever) is kinda cool
I should do it more often, like in this here post

It is and has always ever been as Sadie Plant noted so long ago, that the web and weaving go together, as one aspect mirrored in another
a weave, of course, being a closely-knit community
