ABC7: Several Southern California piers closed Saturday as high surf and dangerous rip currents battered the coast. https://abc7.com/post/ventura-hermosa-beach-manhattan-piers-close-high-surf-dangerous-rip-currents-batter-southern-california-coast/20041158/

Yes, I know that having kittens around open flames is a dangerously bad idea, but this print was obviously very special to someone. It is by far the biggest one in my collection at 11 x 14 inches!

We interrupt whatever you're doing to bring you this important Golden Spangled Appenzeller Spitzhauben.

#3GoodThings

1. I have had a lot of admin things to do the last few days, and while I don't enjoy that, I feel I have kept up pretty well.

2. I got behind in making holiday cards, but worked on it for a few hours this afternoon. I have completed 35, and have another 17 more than half-finished. I really like the 35, the others are less fancy, but nice enough to send out.

3. I spent an hour preparing chocolate pots de creme this evening, they are cooking sous vide, and will then be refrigerated overnight. We will have very fancy pudding for dessert tomorrow!

• Violet Evergarden ep 10 (Ann)
• Aria the Animation ep 6 (Athena introduction)
• Aria the Natural ep 10 (puppet master)
• Aria the Natural ep 15 (lunch)
• Aria the Origination ep 9 (Alice graduation)
• Kogepan ep 10 (being alive)
• Gochiusa?? ep 5 (Mocha comes to town and big moment for Chino)
• Gochiusa? Bloom ep 9 (Syaro and Chiya)
• K-ON!! ep 8 (flashbacks, music & tortoise themes, careers)
• Non Non Biyori, Lucky Star, Zetsubou sensei ep 1 (my favourite first episodes)
• A bunch of Gintama episodes like 188 (Madao asagao episode)

And with masterpiece I just mean whatever episodes come to mind that I like to rewatch on their own.

honourable mention: Aria the Crepuscolo (a short film so doesn’t count but it feels like a big Alice + Athena episode full of some of my favorite moments)

Surprising: I can’t think of a single Hidamari Sketch episode above the rest of them.

I also mostly have favourite scenes. Much easier to come up with and more plentiful.

@TheBreadmonkey
I didn't crack my ribs but 34 yrs ago I torn the muscles connecting them together. To this day they hurt like hell if I turn too fast and my right side of my body is 5cm lower than the left.

@FiddleSix Holiday cards?!?!? The holidays are coming?!?!?! AHHHHHHHH

Hey publishers, I'm looking for ecology-related books to review for @briefecology in 2027. If you have upcoming titles in the realms of eco-fiction, eco-socialism, critical ecology, geography, or anything else you think might be a fit, let me know

@jalefkowit “wait, he doesn’t like the NPVIC? what could possibly be…

god damnit”

Sharing of ideas and code is a core tenant of FOSS. PyLova literally started as a copy of Piefed. Why shouldn’t the ideas and features flow both ways?

Multiple images in posts and in-line comment editing are basic features coppied from Reddit (and, like, every social media site), which probably coppied them from somewhere else. Let’s not pretend like PyLova is breaking new ground here, lmao.

@douglasvb 😂

@FiddleSix @carstenfranke LOL he would have masked up QUICK

Do you have any context/source for “Rimu’s hostile history”? Because I’ve tried looking into that a few times but I’ve only ever found this Piefed devlog post which makes Piefed sound reasonable but obviously has every incentive to be biased.

PeerTube is like lemmy, mastadon, or Pixelfed having multiple instances that are connected.

I searched for PeerTube, it took me here https://joinpeertube.org/browse-content and then I clicked one video and then it took me to https://spectra.video/ is this how it works? I am confused.

🤔 Apparently not much high level aircraft coming my direction, even per the other sites. They must still be having crew shuffling issues.

@lain slopp?
