@naye thanks! i’m v pleased with it
@twistylittlepassages so tidy!! it’s the perfect size to fit in the (admittedly narrow) side pockets of my backpack also for added neatness
when @Lady and I were in chicago we kept trying to eat in parks but the takeout places never gave out cutlery, which prompted me into finally investing in a nice kit for my bag (she has a matching set in raspberry, and we have a blue one for anyone who comes to visit!!!)
@celli@octodon.social @pastelsinmysky yay new tattoo!!
re: meta, request for info
@twistylittlepassages there are two metas -- the tusky meta is that some famous open source guy got mad that Tuskey sometimes pays its volunteers small amounts of money for their time even when that time doesn't lead immediately directly to tangible contributions (see tusky's explanation of the situation: https://opencollective.com/tusky/updates/tusky-contributor-response-to-nik-clayton for more info )
The Oliphant drama appears to be a misunderstanding between a user and the mod team, compounded by the main Oliphant admin's failure to communicate effectively with said user and said mod team, who they'd made competing promises to, which was then escalated by the now ex-user deciding the best course of action was a very loud and public "mods are out to get me!" thread (see: https://dotart.blog/welshpixie/anarchonina-and-oliphant-social & https://writer.oliphant.social/oliphant/a-story-to-tell & https://jorts.horse/@AnarchoNinaWrites/110975247371907452 if you want all three particpant perspectives on that one)
@soph_sol yeah its very usable by me….but prob not anyone else, haha
And I like for my books to be at least semi-finable returnable by housemates
@soph_sol makes sense! currently my books are divided between two different locations, and then im using semi-different systems with both locations bc the # of books is so different…which is to say the whole things is a mess 😆 but i want to redo it soonish!
@soph_sol oooh organizing sisters books! do you have opinions on which organizational system you’d use for her stuff??’
@soph_sol yeah i’ve done a few book reorg projects just for the fun of poking through all of my books haha (though i probably have slightly fewer books than i have files
@soph_sol time for the great soph’s laptop reorganization challenge?
@naugeleh congrats on the building!
@mythologybot 1) induces

@pastelsinmysky yeah just pineaceae too vague to be really helpful 😆 here’s a picture of a real one for comparison!

@pastelsinmysky the tree you arent sure of the name for might be a Japanese black pine / something similar? they naturally have a mildly zig-zag trunk that is often exaggerated by pruning / training in ornamental gardens….
@mythologybot alas, prion diseases are not a myth

@Lady if thats the only issue we could probably make it work
