Some confectioneries include a "map" for the chocolates, but if you buy a box of, say, See's Candies, you're likely not going to know whether something's caramel or nougat before you bite into it.

(And "hen and then" is a total must-have.)

Interestingly, I feel like "thich" sounds too much like "this" to feel right as a word for "that one". I think "thich and thach" would *totally* work though.

Got together with a few friends and made a game music arrangement EP. ๐Ÿ˜Š Feel free to have a listen if you'd like!

Looks like they also added allowances to bullets for "economic exclusion" and "social exclusion". It's shockingly blatant when viewed as a changelog...

Yeah, it seems like it was only a matter of days between folks' "we should take this opportunity to outgrow old Twitter behaviors!" and doing...not that. ๐Ÿ˜“

I am in JP! And I also don't mean for it to be competitive; my thought was friendly accountability.

New year's challenge: we each make an educational video and see what happens?

Yeah, I'm constantly like "at some point, I'll come to my senses and just become a teacher, right?" but I have zero idea how to actually do that.

This. If it's "Bluesky" and not "BlueSky", then I think the screenreader is already correct. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Ooh, I see. I'll just let the *.github.io be an alias then.

I take it this just applies to multiple custom domains though, and not to having *.bsky.social AND something else?

Indeed, it displays "Upgrade or make this repository public to enable Pages" in this case.

Ooh, a Nord and a sax. Looks like a good act.

More seriously, your giving us a "Wait, you can do that? You can just...ask the world for a compliment?" moment *itself* demonstrates an openness and a kindness that's so needed right now.

I wanna live in a world where people actually go around and compliment one another! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I feel like I never fully understood Twitter, so the X-odus seems like a lovely opportunity to try anew.

Decided to start by making my profile a bit more "person-first". โ˜บ๏ธ
