@shopbot @phildini Currently in the middle of THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR, which is great fun.

@Gargron Can you determine the age of imported accounts? Maybe there's a threshold at which delaying notifications is appropriate.

Nero is getting sleepy from watching the news. #mastocats #catstodon

@DialMforMara Adventure Sync was great for me. I only need to get the daily capture, daily spin, and daily research, and can get walking credit when my phone is in my pocket. I try to keep three finished research items in queue so I have plenty of time if I get a daily like "make an excellent throw" or "catch N X-type pokémon".

@artsyhonker Sure, they could accumulate stuff, and then pay people to guard the stuff, and pay to maintain the stuff because durable goods aren’t forever. It’s not a complete solution; you also need taxes on land so landowners don’t turn into rentiers who do nothing but own land.

@DialMforMara @gretchenmcc I think presenting it as “here is new etiquette for a new medium” may be effective. What else to mention? ALL CAPS MEANS SHOUTING, which can be good if you want to show enthusiasm but otherwise restrained in use.

@artsyhonker And during the Great Depression, a town in Austria switched to one of those currencies and had enough prosperity to suddenly build a ski jump. Then the central government went NOPE and shut that down.

@artsyhonker Have you read Douglas Rushkoff’s _Throwing Rocks at the Google Bus_? He has some interesting ideas based on historical currencies that functionally had a steep negative interest rate. If you can’t sit on a pile of cash without it eroding, you have to spend it on something. That led to building cathedrals.

@DialMforMara @gretchenmcc My mom is a tech writer and big on understanding courtesy, so I would pitch things to her as being medium-dependent etiquette. (A good example being that the millennial “text before phoning” habit is an excellent rebirth of the principle behind 19th century calling cards, and is blunting the interruptive quality of a telephone call.) Would that be up your mom’s alley?

The lily pads in our backyard pond are thriving.

Phryne wishes good napping to you all. #mastocats #catstodon

@shopbot @phildini A reworking of Dungeons and Dragons (framed in Fate RPG rules) with a more ecological perspective and no moral shortcuts. The manga DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON got me started on it. https://www.comixology.com/Delicious-in-Dungeon/comics-series/95097

Nero likes to spend about five minutes under a blanket when the humans go to bed. It goes best for us when we provide him one of his own. #catstodon #mastocats

“If a fish is the movement of water embodied, given shape, then cat is a diagram and pattern of subtle air.” — Doris Lessing

I quote this whenever one of our clowder demonstrates that they left their feline grace in their other pyjamas.

@mishellbaker I'd have a room that was a shady forest glade, with lots of fun places for the cats to play and stalk, without any of the threats they’d face in a real backyard. Plus some comfortable chairs and a hammock for the humans.

@DialMforMara Yeah, this GIF sees a lot of action inside Google.

@DialMforMara Or one of the more lighthearted parts of Fantasia...
