How was it? I’ve been ordering mesquite flour online because we don’t have any species of them where I live lol.

This is awesome, I hope I get one near me someday.

Adeem the Artist, on repeat, since I only just discovered them lol.

I can’t say that the ability to follow individual people is really something I care about, but coming from Piefed, it does seem to work just fine. So does Peertube and any of the other ones I’ve bothered to try.

Oh they do, neat! I wonder if there’s some shared lineage in the symbols there? I was going off of this, mostly.

Do they have a warrant canary? I bet they might, hopefully

Those sound like a great addition! I think I might like to throw in a bunch of dried spicebush berries next time, seems like a similar complement to cinnamon and clove.

Thanks! I hoped that wouldn’t be lost on folks lol.

Wow, AND it broke despite being one of the strongest types of spider web! On the other hand, I think the way they plied it is not how things are supposed to be done, for good reason. Correct plying ought to make a world of difference. From what i saw in the video, it only seems like a lot of web if it needs to be continuous. To make yarn, it’s not at all atypical to spin many shorter fibers together rather than few long ones. And caterpillar tents are super abundant! The differences in strength between insect webs might still be a real issue though.

Somebody else mentioned that they think caterpillar tent silk just balls up into a big stacky wad, so you might need to submerge it in something that would cut the stickiness first. That also made me think of another possibility. What if, instead of spinning it as-is, you dissolved it in a solvent and then electrospun it onto a rotating spool? And then plied the result?
