lots of birds out walking tonight in the woods. not flying. just walking. walking birds.
#ForkOff for quite a while, I've been designing and creating a prototype interface for some Mastodon-like software in Elm. I've been pissed off at Masto for a long time and just wanted to try to contribute my design skills my own way and not actually contribute to Masto.
If nowhere else, I want it to go to GlitchSocial, but if there's talk of making new software, maybe I can contribute my design expertise/current frontend code or something...
love too walk around the entire loop at SFO
getting super excited to hang out with my friends and colleagues from all over. Gonna be draining but thatβs ok for me sometimes. Seeing all these people is like walking into a hug.
double shout out to the person who actually got me though
shout out to the Lyft driver parked and waiting in my neighborhood π
I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
But we use the metric system here
So in kilometers that's 804
I don't know the number, it's local. I'm in bed but I pick up.
My daughter is out at a silent disco. "Mom, I can't find my phone but I'm ok. I'm going to call it now; can you tell me if it's home somewhere?"
I hear it ring, but by the time I figure out which floor it's on, the call ends. So I dial it from the phone in my hand. Chase its tune to the sofa. Pick it up.
The screen is lit with the picture she's given me and the name.
It's Yoda, in meditation.

In case there's any confusion about advice, solicited or otherwise:
I ask a question? That means advice is welcome.
I make a statement! That means that no advice is required, nor asked for, and possibly not welcome. However if you have experience on the subject, you can ask if advice would be welcome and mention your experience, before giving unsolicited advice, because if I say yes, it becomes solicited advice, and we can have a much better conversation.
