Full black background for Dark Mode looks pretty sweet in the Micro.blog iOS app. 😎
I wonder if, here on Micro.blog, there are people who would like to share their Spotify playlists? 🤔
I could make a @til account, save the playlists, and then link to that page as a directory of sorts. Then, maybe the page could be shared on TIL, Micro.blog, Twitter, etc. 🎶
Today I am grateful for the powers of recovery to which I owe my body more thanks than I can possibly give. Sometimes a short rest and some healthy food is all you need.
I’m looking forward to making big steps with @til and major house-tidying chores.

Working on @til makes me happy. Missed my own deadline (for returning to full activity) but still excited about the various things I’m lining up for imminent release.
This always makes me feel better. So very grateful to have found Micro.blog and everybody therein. 😊
Wow Drafts is so damned quick! @kaa you weren’t kidding
One of the positive consequences of generally stepping away from life as a usable asset on the web is that I will be entirely removing all of the garbage coverage and commentary about US politics.
It is literal swamp water and we all just fucking drink it up.
The Social Media Morass – Frosted Echoes
I can’t pick a quote. Just read the whole thing because it is all entirely accurate.
Whilst online debate of real issues may be a source of positivity for some people the fact remains that it contributes nothing to the world.
When I read this hilariously bad piece from Mark Wilson at Fast Company and see in the bio at the bottom of the post that he has written “for almost 15 years”, it just makes me feel better about being at the start of new endeavours.
