I've been psychotic! So that's the main thing. You?

Nate, thank you! This was such a nice surprise to wake up to. Nagori, it is.
Thank, Steve, and everyone else for helping get my weird request for info where it needs to go.
Sometimes, the Internet is a really nice place.
I have need of someone with Japanese scholarship. Maybe someone knows someone?
I’ve written a piece in the style of Sei Shonagon. Working title: nagori.
Q: Is there a 10th c equivalent for this word? Something that holds both anticipation and aftermath, or lingering?
I know. Pass it on anyway?
It was 20 years ago today... Cast On began to play. It's the anniversary of the very first episode of my podcast!
Twenty. Years.
In Internet years that's practically Neolithic.
I am deeply, deeply in love with the driver of this car.
@Anthropic.com should give me a free enterprise account because I’m doing important feminist infrastructure work, and at the vanguard of building creative praxis and collaboration with AI. And because I’m pretty.
Thank you for mentioning this theatre! I live close, and it’s one of those things I pass frequently, and always remark,”We should check them out,” but then forget about.
This is one of my favourite quick lunches. Makes enough for two, and can be eaten cold, straight from the fridge in a pinch.
Cuuuuute! Love me a curved waistband.
The last flowers of the season. Cosmos, calendula, sweet peas and cornflower, all grown from @higgledygarden.bsky.social seed.
Annie was born for this job.
Well, I didn‘t get raptured last night. You?
If all of my outfits this winter do not come with matching mittens then what is even the point? This #1930s skating ensemble was created by Schiaparelli for her sporting line, an innovative addition to her fashion brand #palaisgalliera #fondationazzedinealaia #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
The muppet show is returning.
I repeat
THE MUPPET SHOW IS RETURNING.
Kermit was my first crush this is momentous.
If this little girl’s giggle, Kermit’s disgruntled face & the last 10 seconds of this don’t make your day better then I cannot account for you:
No, I definitely did play Saffire. I do remember that one.
I did get permission to play some artists that weren’t podsafe just by emailing them and asking. Dar Williams comes to mind.
Huh. I don’t remember playing any Ani de Franco in the podcast. Unless the track was on the podsafe music network back in the day. Damn, I really do miss that resource.
Here is my best guidance, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons nearly nine years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

Wondering whether the Torment Nexus will remain open source, or move to a commercial model.
Everyone knows it’s Flarke, with an E.
Woodstove weather has arrived. Rejoice with me.

I am torn between really wanting it to be warm enough for my tomatoes to ripen, and really wanting it to be chilly enough to fire up the wood stove.
We'd save half a billion a year. We'd be able to hold our head of state accountable. Sounds like a better future for Britain, right? #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy
I absolutely adore Leo’s optomism.
The thing nobody tells you about moving house is how long it takes to hunt for that thing you unpacked and put away in very safe spot two years ago. I can guarantee you will not be able to find that thing when you want it.
Gorgeous writing. Thanks for sharing.
