"Sometimes #love looks like knowing when to stay quiet."
Dr Srividya Sivakumar - Marsala and Marginalia
#shortstories #books

Letter from Mum (Received) - March 28th
Kavita ma, 
Your father and I are worried. 
I know you think we don’t understand your pain, but when your father's brother died in that accident twenty-two years ago, I didn't speak to anyone for two months. Love ending is like that too - a kind of of death.(44)
Come home for a few days. We won't discuss him unless you'd like to. We'll just be together.(45)

Footnotes:
44: She’s right. There's the death of who you were as part of something, and then there…

Don't Cry for Me Argentina
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all goals scored
You won't believe me, all you will see is a Messi you once knew
Although he dressed up to the nines
He failed to score a goal for you
I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life a scorer

“You smell that? Do you smell that? Hydrogen peroxide, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of hydrogen peroxide in the morning. You know, one time we had a pool peroxided for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' cell of algae. The smell - you know that peroxide smell - the whole pool smelled like... victory. Someday this reflecting pool is gonna be blue.”

Those lines that I before have writ do lie,
Even those that said I could not love you dearer:
Yet then my judgment knew no reason why
My most full flame should afterwards burn clearer.
But reckoning Time, whose million'd accidents
Creep in 'twixt vows, and change decrees of kings,
Tan sacred beauty, blunt the sharp'st intents,
Divert strong minds to the course of altering things;
Alas! why, fearing of Time'…

#mountains

This image captures a breathtaking and rugged mountain landscape, evoking a sense of adventure and natural grandeur. A narrow, winding dirt trail cuts through the scene, leading the viewer's eye deeper into the majestic valley. The trail is flanked by rocky outcrops and patches of green vegetation, adding texture and contrast to the rugged terrain.
To the right of the trail, a steep, rocky cliff rises dramatically, its gray and brown hues showcasing the raw beauty of the mountain. The cliff's r…

It's also worth thinking about interpersonal conflict between marginalized people with different experiences. Who mediates? How? How do you account for your existing biases when mediating people with different experiences of oppression than your own?
Practice can help answer those questions before you have to "do it live." I'd personally love resources on this, because I had to "do it live" as an organizer, and that was awful.

I will always resent "scroll as zoom", making the scrolling function of the mouse do a zoom. You may disagree, but I'm not looking for a debate.
I remember a conversation with the PM of Google Maps when this was introduced there. I asked for at least an option to turn it off. Not only does it strike me as counterintuitive, its behavior embedded in a scrolling window is unforgivable. His response: "What else would scroll do?"
Gotta love product design.

Just finished the game "Arco". It's a masterpiece. Wonderfully evocative setting and writing, excellent systems with top-notch ludonarrative harmony, and complex characters that you love while also seeing their not-so-great sides.
For once in a violence-centric game I get to be murdering colonizers instead of metaphorical stand-ins for indigenous people? Feels excellent.
The systems and abilities did a great job of keeping things balanced too, with definite power growth but growing costs too, letting the tactics remain important throughout. After playing Flamberge, I was worried it might feel too fiddly, but it doesn't at all, and the ghosts mechanic really pushes you to play quickly.

The thing I love about computers is that I can tell you basically anything about how a computer works, not because I know everything but because I know how to figure it out. I can walk you, over the course of an hour, two, there, maybe more, though every step of typing something into a web form, from the electrical signals that get turned into digital via an ADC, to the USB controller memory, to the kernel driver, to user space, through the application stack, back down to the kernel, to the network driver, through routers, up the server stack, TCP/IP, key exchanges, etc.
I don't mean I have the time to dig into these things. I used to, and it was fun. I've given more than my fair share of interviews talking though variations of this. What I'm talking about isn't pure knowledge, but that, given relatively simple theory, and the right tools, every action of a computer can be understood down to the limits of physics.
The thing I hate about #LLMs is that take something comprehensible and make it something almost completely opaque. Even with a solid understanding of the theory, literally no one understands what's happening. That is shit. It makes playing with technology not fun anymore. The way in which companies are making things even more opaque by running stuff in the cloud is everything I hated about closed source on steroids.

In the midst of our plastic dystopia,

Expand your horizons with kindness.
Blessed be, and grace to thee!

- Membership not associated with any other church or denomination
I'm just gonna throw this one away. Distinct membership in only one religious organization is a distinct property of western Christianity. It is not impossible within "Eastern" belief systems, for example, to simultaneously be a member of multiple faiths, and as such one could be a member of one or multiple other churches or denominations. Being both Buddhist and Christian, for example, is not necessarily strange *outside* of Christian supremacist societies.
But if you want your membership to be distinct, you do you. I'm not your dad. Probably. I mean, my kids aren't on social media yet and I don't know if they'll ever read this. But maybe I am your dad. I'm still not telling you what to do. Also, in that case, I love you.

People get bullied off Bluesky, but annoyed off Mastodon”
Definitely getting some traction😂

I don't post on here much any more, or monitor it much, so probably better to find me on Bluesky if you need me.
De gustibus etc. No platform is perfect. But I feel more comfortable there, and less like I'm likely to get screamed at for using Latin without a CW or something.

Sonnet 115 - CXV
Those lines that I before have writ do lie,
Even those that said I could not love you dearer:
Yet then my judgment knew no reason why
My most full flame should afterwards burn clearer.
But reckoning Time, whose million'd accidents
Creep in 'twixt vows, and change decrees of kings,
Tan sacred beauty, blunt the sharp'st intents,
Divert strong minds to the course of altering things;
Alas! why, fearing of Time'…

“Ooh, hello, Mister Man.” Gotta love when just a random lifeguardy-looking person in old beach file video makes you sit up and take notice. Can somebody please lasso me and invade my personal space nicely? Of course I have to like you first 😖🙄😆

#ScribesAndMakers June 20: How difficult is it for you to receive criticism of your creative work?
I usually love receiving feedback on my work. Of course it can hurt if it was a work that I was emotionally invested in and people don't like it. But most often, the criticism is there for a reason and I can decide I either don't care, I don't agree, or I see their point …

@… I *love* the knee jerk reactions in the replies.
Yes of course lots is *also* wrong about the US, absolutely. But as a European immigrant in America, I imagine that like you, I’ve also learned about at least a few things that are better. We should all want to combine the best of all worlds, not just go “Boo America sucks”.
You know what I love…

This week's #MusicWomenWednesday is some more black metal, this is the first demo of Luna Darling's one woman black metal project ENSORCELLESS from Los Angeles. This one's a real ripper. You know how picky about black metal I am - this one is raw, wild, some really great, crusty shit. Awesome guitar, vocals-- lots to love here.

Sonnet 072 - LXXII
O! lest the world should task you to recite
What merit lived in me, that you should love
After my death,--dear love, forget me quite,
For you in me can nothing worthy prove.
Unless you would devise some virtuous lie,
To do more for me than mine own desert,
And hang more praise upon deceased I
Than niggard truth would willingly impart:
O! lest your true love may seem false in this
That you for love speak well of me…

For #TerryPratchettDay I want to share one of my favourite quotes. There are many, but this one just resonates with me as a writer. Sir Terry Pratchett's work is about how important stories are to humans and as a storyteller who grew up loving his books, unsurprisingly I feel the same way. He was the first celebrity where I was truly gutted when he died. Much love to everyone who w…

A quote from Terry Pratchett's book "Hogfather" in white letters against a dark blue background:
"Take the universe and grind it down to the finest powder and sieve it through the finest sieve and then show me one atom of justice, one molecule of mercy. And yet...
You need to believe in things that aren't true. How else can they become?"
-- Hogfather by Terry Pratchett

Sonnet 076 - LXXVI
Why is my verse so barren of new pride,
So far from variation or quick change?
Why with the time do I not glance aside
To new-found methods, and to compounds strange?
Why write I still all one, ever the same,
And keep invention in a noted weed,
That every word doth almost tell my name,
Showing their birth, and where they did proceed?
O! know sweet love I always write of you,
And you and love are still my argument;…
