We have been slowly Jackson Galaxy-ifying our overtall living room wall, building this “cat superhighway” with occasional hangout spaces piece by piece. #catsofmastodon

Running your own services on the public internet can bring years—maybe even a lifetime—of joy, purpose, and connection. It also requires continuous attention and care, at least a little bit every day, even when you don't feel like it.

I believe in the #IndieWeb philosophy that encourages folks to explore the option of owning their own digital resources, but I wonder if we under-emphasize how it's more like adopting a puppy than like getting into woodworking. #mastoadmin

Wrote a tour through "The Book of Apshai", a most unusual and personally formative computer game manual from 1985.

@jmac I'm still thinking about this weeks later. Not about the game itself -- I've played it and watched videos and meh, nowadays there are tons of better dungeon crawlers out there. But I'm obsessed maybe with the abstract promise of the dungeon crawl plus novel-length manual/flavor bible.

What's especially silly is that I'm currently playing Tears of the Kingdom which hits all the notes I want from a dungeon crawler, and does so really well. I'm living the dream but I'm still dreaming.
