@celesteh can’t help but feel that this is a very easily solvable issue that did not require an op-ed

@gamehawk@weirder.earth @eldang yeah the clouds would make more sense if there were literally any other clouds in the rest of the sky

@Rowyn the original post is SUCH a wild take

Like, I can’t listen to all the music released on bandcamp each day either, and thats fine! probably wouldn’t like most of it anyway, because like most humans I have preferences about the art I consume. But some other people probably will like that stuff and I’m glad it’s out there for them

food 

@pagrus the chorizo making isn’t happening on the beach, i assume

wordle spoilers 

@ljwrites this is the second time that knowing they use a fairly short curated wordlist for wins has messed with me—I knew the word but it just seemed so improbable

bird site, crypto, kickstarter, etc 

@flipp plenty of them are—a lot of the instances with open signups reported an influx of new users this week

And for others, it wasn’t too bad to switch from kickstarter to indiegogo but it’s a lot more effort to disentangle your social network from a site. They might be taking steps to leave (like getting alternative contact info) but its not as visible as someone closing an account

@emma @gnomon @erinbee lj icons were 100x100px so if we kept that it shouldn't add too much server strain, in comparison to normal post attachments i think?

@emma @gnomon @erinbee i would love if i could upload all my dreamwidth icons here!

@aescling she’s an excellent kitty

She’s getting so old now I think she’s almost 18

re: food, advice feel free to ignore 

@Rowyn yeah I’ve found that they tend to put higher-melting point fats in chocolate chips, so that it holds its shape better while getting baked, which means you’re working with an even narrower temp range than normal if you use them. Throwing in a spoonful or two of an oil thats liquid at room temp may make it so that it’s actually pourable at temper temperatures. But also I wouldn’t worry about a few small lumps for something like this — you can strain/pick them out if you care but if anything they’re improving the seeding

(I havent done hot chocolate bombs but I’ve done a fair bit of other work with chocolate in silicone moulds. It really is a pain but its fun)

@aescling cats are v good at tone / body language, a verbal apology works fine if you genuinely mean it
