I didn't even see the thing until now. This was a riff off an article about adaptive books/textbooks.

A social network around choose your own adventure content would be fun (turn to page 2) suck (turn to page 70 don't peek it's a the end page.)

Dreamt <popular local uni> football player tossed a game by tossing his helmet on a last-second return. Sportscasters blamed earlier shenanigans on the sidelines - the player was making out with a wig dummy made human height by stacked Gatorade barrels. 🤷‍♀️

Dreamt about the letter Q and G merging into a single letter. And then I came up with an original composition in the style of John (Cougar) Mellencamp that woke me up, even earwormed me into not being able to sleep for a bit.

Mastodon navel gazing 

If Tumblr becomes a mastodon node through ActivityPub, that’s actually brilliant, finally a mainstream app and mature ecosystem I would send regular folks to instead of twitter or the main mastodon instances, also smart business move by Mullenweg to capitalize on twitter migration with a good alternative that serves everyone’s immediate needs

As a child with a tad of Elmer's glue pooling/soak-through/wrinkle/spill trauma, I get it, and I'm sure teachers appreciate non-spill, but glue stick is too much stick and not enough sticky. Back in my day!

Back of the glue stick package says ingredients are:

80% stick
20% glue

(Nouns, not verbs)

I logged into mastodon just now & the first post I saw was someone advocating for content warning tags over all self-promotion of books or writing. And just like, hell no.

One, writing is my job, & telling me to hide it feels terribly wrong. 1/

@freemo Is the forked source for the qoto.org instance available? I wanted to see how something works. Expected to find details on qoto.org/about/more. Looked around github.com/qoto-org a bit but couldn't find a particular branch that looked likely.

I’m boldly going where I haven’t gone before, which is right here at this site. Apparently this is a “toot.” I would appreciate a follow!

(Here's the authoritative issue: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i - making it easy/elegant to QT makes it "immediately actionable", " very often invites the followers to join in on the conversation, and whoever has got more of them ends up having the upper hand " - Gargron. Totally agree.)

(Oh OK, Mastodon doesn't expand linked toots. So there isn't easy/elegant QT, but there still is QT, and without search and data, hmm, that's not great for abuse I think. But such is the case with anything linkable.)
