What’s your favorite bell pepper? And, no, they don’t all taste the same.

@markwyner red of course. And they make the best faces too :happy_pepper:

The European Parliamentary Elections are during CSS Day so I've just arranged to vote in Amsterdam (with Kiezerspas).

This is an important vote. Collectively we've got to cast a lot of votes on parties that are not extreme right, and (personal opinion) prioritise very ambituous climate policy over nonsensical anti migrant populism.

@hdv you got me worried then, but ours is Sunday 9th so I should be back home by then!

👓 As I hugged tinyMovieStar a couple of days ago, I heard a snap. Now wearing these, at last.

@maique I love these - you look so good

@sarajw@front-end.social avatar

@maique if you never wear them in fear of breaking them then there's no point having them at all - hopefully it won't be too expensive if they break on you!

Wow, now I'm imagining Halt and Catchfire, except it's set in Victorian times with Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace.

Although I'd be happy with an adaptation of this:

Despite my ineligibility, I let https://www.wahl-o-mat.de help me decide who to vote for in the EU election. Glad to reveal I'm not a closet Nazi.

Screenshot of second half of the results. Second last. BSW. 43.8% Last. AfD 18.8%

@mrtrimble if you go into your native Mastodon settings, there should be an invites section :)

@mrtrimble there are some guidelines about invitations here:

Cardboard recycling collection time.

Sara is beset by boxes. She fits them into each other like snug Russian dolls, compresses packaging as best she can, unfolds and flattens the boxes that allow for it.

She pauses. And sighs. She picks one up and walks with it into the utility room, adding a new Good Box to the now-teetering Good Box pile.

"But it is a good box. Might come in handy," she mutters to herself. One of those Good Boxes has a postage label on it from the 1990s. Good Box.

🆕 blog! “Book Review: Red Side Story - Jasper Fforde”
★★★★⯪

Fourteen years ago, I read Fforde's Shades of Grey and my life hasn't been quite the same since. It was a magical tale, almost totally devoid of exposition, building in an fantasy world like no other. Fans have been clamouring for a sequel ever since. The first few chapters of the sequel do an excellent […]

@Edent Fforde 🥰

Have you visited his website and found the extra material?

I only read Shades of Grey for the first time recently and was able to almost roll straight into this sequel, it was ace ❤️

Early Riser was a massive highlight too. Loved it, though his account of writing it on his website sounds like it was really difficult for him.

@bw @ryanrandall ugh I'm kind of jealous of this. I'd love to do my own and once upon a time I did, but I worry now too much about privacy and stalking, I feel like it's just too much information...

...I say that, and then I use LinkedIn. Hypocrite much? I'm often confused...
