A rare Dutch novel about a crossdressing female highwayman who disappointingly repents of her life of crime at the end and retires to a convent. #newacquisition #newacq

@overholt @flockofnazguls Nice! I have a very lovely antique stereoscope my parents bought me as a teen. It still has patchy faded red velvet around the edges. And a collection of cards, in a very nice wood box (probably not original). One of the few larger possessions I've carted around with me this long.

@overholt The only one of these that actually felt like it had depth was the manhole one, the rest seemed fairly flat (thought he balloons in the dog one did stand out)

@overholt

I quite liked

No. 1½ Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma-Gate

in York. Would love for the fractional number to be a standard part of address validation 🤪

@overholt
"Sounds Legit!"

@overholt that's glorious.

I used to live on Ship Street. The amount of times I was hung up on, by taxis or Chinese takeaways in my own town, who thought it was a prank and I said I lived up Shit Street.

@overholt Massive mood, its kinda demoralising how commerce driven the Internet has become. Mastodon offers this chill decentralised forum feeling that I love and crave.

@overholt If it ain’t nourishing, inspiring, enlightening, liberating, and challenging in ways that make me a better human, I ain’t want nothing to do with it! 💪🏼

If we want standards for social media, we might as well set them ourselves. ✊🏼

@overholt Reach may be smaller compared to proprietary social media, but conversations are so much better on the fediverse 👍 :fediverse:

@overholt This is most interesting. Didn't thought of this kind of sheet till now.

@overholt Chinese speakers taking the Japanese eyesight test be like: proletariat

@overholt That is really cool actually.

@overholt I wish more people would use the word remarkable in this context. "Worthy of being remarked" is very different than "Unusual or striking."

People can’t get enough Long S content, is the lesson I’m taking away

@overholt someone with little imagination

@overholt @ZachWeinersmith … I had no idea. Now I too must know more.

@overholt it's so good. A couple years ago I was chatting with a homeless guy and he told me how much he liked Euclid and I asked if he'd seen this. he said no so I pulled this up on my phone and we looked at it together for a while

@overholt John.
