I work in a used books shop and read mostly Science fiction and fantasy, but not exclusively.
I game a bit, but wouldn't call myself a gamer. My favourite game over the past several years is #TheLongDark

Interested, but not very knowledgeable about Walkability, 15 min city, rewilding.

I have some issues with physical pain as well as social anxiety.

This is seriously so comfy :blobcatcomfysmirk:

Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou for those who are interested

Next panel shows the girl intending to go to Mt Fuji, she holds a futuristic camera in her hands and her face seems excited to see what's next

@Acilius @joel one of my absolute favourites. Getting the second volume in a couple of days, though I've read it all before.

@Acilius @joel as a scanlation. I'm really happy Seven Seas decided to publish them. My one, petty gripe is that I would have loved a HC edition.

@joel @Acilius if I remember right, I probably downloaded them on IRC. I read them on my PC, but this was before all these online services that are around these days.

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@joel @Acilius oh, I buy them. Either digital and read them on my Kobo, or physical books. Occasionally I check things out first on-line.
I don't read a vast amount of manga, and often have a pretty good idea of what I'm getting.

@Acilius @joel I live in Sweden, and Amazon doesn't dominate the same way it does in the States (assuming that's where you're from). I don't like lock-in, walled gardens etc so works fine for me. I've had several and been very happy with them.

@alternativenation listening to Tigerlilly by Nathalie Merchant right now. I only discovered her recently.

@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@renwillis @alternativenation I hadn't, so thank you for that!
I have seen the video where they perform To sir with love though.

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@renwillis @alternativenation Not much, no. 😃 Personally though, as a reader a new author is pretty great too.

@protonmail
Just wanted to say thanks for all the useful apps and services, and for releasing the source code.

@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@protonmail I don't use either Reddit or Twitter, but fortunately I don't have any problems with your services at the moment. 😃

Hey new people! 👋

A guide to some Fediverse terms:

Toot = Post (named after the Mastodon mascot, in theory)

Favourite = Like (there's a separate Bookmark function if you really want to keep track of posts)

Boost = Re-Tweet, shares a post with your followers

Instance = Server = The site you signed up on, each server is independent

Birdsite = Hellsite = Twitter

Fediverse = This place you're on right now, reading this. Mastodon is one kind of server on here, but there are many other types.

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@feditips maybe just add a note that Toot is an older / legacy / deprecated term?

Oh, and thanks for everything you do to help everyone.

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@feditips well, true enough. Some other description then.

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@5ciFiGirl @feditips which is what I meant 😃

jarulf,
@jarulf@mstdn.social avatar

@feditips @5ciFiGirl ha, I didn't even consider the character limit. It is probably pretty clear, after all.

@bookstodon I've worked in a used books store for over ten years, over time my visits to the local library have dropped to zero. I used to go often, but between buying online and picking up stuff at work I didn't really keep that up.
So I decided to renew my library card and spent a while just browsing the unfamiliar shelves. I'd almost forgotten how much fun that is, just going from a-z (or a-ö, in my case). I picked up two novels by Japanese authors I hadn't read before
