I did some really basic searching and it looks like something like Yunohost might have some ActivityPub modules, and it does have some blogging modules that might work. I have not used this, so I can’t say how good or bad it is, but it seemed to have potential.

Well I should be finishing The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu but honestly western magical realism just isn’t doing it for me. It’s August’s small book club read so I’ll get back to it.

In the meantime I’ve been re-reading Last Exit by Max Gladstone because Ruthanna Emrys and Anne Pillsworth are starting a re-read discussion and I’m reminded that it was awesome and that I felt like there was a lot I was missing when I read it the first time, so just refreshing my memory to be able to keep up with the discussion.

I wish it were “against all odds” but by my observations, the probabilities are a lot higher than I would like.

Goddammit. It’s my moronic senator behind that. Figures. I’m not sure he reaches Tuberville or Inhofe levels of stupid, but he is a terrible person.

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion… I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain… Time… to die.

I don’t think you’re alone on the Southern Reach books by Vandermeer. I did read them, but holy moly it was a slog towards the end. It’s a trippy slow psychological descent. Without any concrete aspects for the reader to hang their hat on, it’s exceedingly difficult (for me at least) to get a picture of what’s going on, what’s really happening. I think they’re well written, but they are not really my thing.

Ms Greene is apparently unaware that human beings have sex, and thus is astonished when she discovered the younger Biden engaging.

Yeah, he’s not even subtle about it.

I’ll see what I can do when I get an opportunity. I installed it and tried it, but since I didn’t have time to really dig in, I uninstalled it after the first sanity pass failed. This was Firefox 115.02 (64-bit) Windows 10.
