So, the REAL important question is:

Bears, Texans, or Falcons?

@brian@hoosier.social avatar

@Jaden3

I’m in Indiana and a Colts fan. We had a great run with Manning and Luck, and I’m hopeful with Richardson. But the AFC South is a whole lot different than it used to be. Stroud is legit.

I’ve heard this and still can’t make the switch happen. I still pronounce it with a hard G and can’t help myself.

A friend convinced me to start reading the Stormlight Archive book series.

I knew Brandon Sanderson also did some of the last Wheel of Time books and I had a real hard time sticking with that series. Something with the writing style didn't hook me. I was expecting these books to hit me the same way, but so far it's been a pretty easy read.

@weston

I’m not big on fantasy so I started with the Steelheart series. After that I hit all of the Mistborn stuff and thought most of it was pretty fun. How does Stormlight compare on the Fantasy scale?

#3GoodThings for today

🎂 Woo-hoo! It's my #birthday! In spite of it being a terrible anti-security feature, I still think it's my favorite part of #Facebook.

📜 My #Playwright group meets today to discuss my new play I wrote a week ago.

✨ Right after, I am performing a #magic gig today, for a birthday kid turning 9. [Kermit arms.]

Bonus:

🥪 After that, I plan to have a #BahnMi - ambrosia on a baguette - after the performance. It's the perfect #sandwich.

Teeny Statue of Liberty Museum

First thing you should know is the proprietor is great. I was a little concerned this might be a right wing nut location ... But nope! Highly recommend this weird little place. His spiel is great.

I don’t have any “critter repellent” on hand at the moment and I’ve got a squirrel that has twice today dug in my planter on the porch so I just sprinkled dehydrated minced garlic, red pepper flake, and dried jalapeño over the mulch.

TRY AGAIN, FRIEND. I DARE YOU.

@NefariousAryq

Update: the plan backfired. The squirrel brought a bag of tortilla chips, a jar of pico, and a six pack. He has set up tiki torches and a bluetooth speaker.

Long Sunday Walk, haircut, meal prep, and movie date. Now soaking sunshine on the patio. Pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Biggie Announcement: I'm officially a ! Woohoo!

My comedy 10-minute play "Carthago Delenda Est" was selected to be produced - with real actors on stage - for the Civic Theatre of Greater Lafayette's Play Festival! I'm giddy with all the good feelings. 🤩 If you're in over the last weekend in June, come out and see it!

Thanks to all the people who helped proofread, and gave me suggestions to make it better.

What is the function of the "Notes" field that we see on profiles? It seems that when I add a note, I get a confirmation that it's "saved", but when I come back to the profile, nothing is there (usually). Sometimes I also see the note on other profiles (especially if I click "back" to get to another profile). I tried this on multiple accounts -- on my Mastodon server, on another Mastodon server, and on a Lemmy server. I guess I'll need to submit a bug report, but I can't even find basic documentation about how this is supposed to behave.

brian,
@brian@hoosier.social avatar

@DecaturNature

I think it is supposed to be a little breadcrumb for yourself, like why you followed this person or how you know them. I’ve had luck using them just as you’re describing, so unfortunately I’m not able to help troubleshoot. I can only confirm that it seems like you’re doing it right!

My son and I ran up to Indy over the weekend to catch an Indy Eleven match (soccer/football) and to meet up with our cousins we haven’t seen for a while. It was nice to be back home again in Indiana ;)

Lunch downtown with coworkers and I mention all of the “No turn on red” signs at all the intersections. Guy with me says he knows all about the signs, pedestrian injuries, the state vs city stuff, etc because he follows @IndyPedCrisis (on Twitter but I’m not judgin’). I said, “I don’t want to brag but I know @NefariousAryq!”

Totally random conversation that affirms your reach!

🚶 Started my day with a 3.87 mile walk / 8300 steps! #walking
🤧 Recovered from my severe head cold last week. Feeling much better!
🎓 Finished my first research paper last night for new #GradSchool class, in a subject that is useful to me. Computer networks. About 60-some weeks of grad school left.

Picture: #Selfie looking right at you.

Ummm, this is wild, but I think that is the door to the AirBnB we stayed at last summer.

@alexf24

Sorry I forgot about this thread until my wife and I were just talking about it. It is totally the door to the place we stayed. I mean, there were several floors to this building and several apts but we were on 4. We loved it. Great location. Everyone goes to Mercato Centrale but we hit the Mercato di Sant’Ambrogio several times during our stay. I would get coffee at the little store just down on the corner in the morning. I can’t believe the coincidence!

Guys, it’s happening! My daughter is becoming Mastodon-curious. She asked me if there was a server for D&D. I got to say yes, but also explain that you can follow anyone from any server. I got “ah ah ah, i see.”

I need to remind myself to slowly and gently blow on this ember.
