@valhalla Interesting! I think I've had barley tea, actually, in an Asian restaurant that I really liked.

I love that it's so controversial!

I spent a semester in Italy in 1992, but don't remember coming across this option. Maybe I was too enamored of the cappuccini and lattes, not to mention the pudding like hot chocolates!

tfw you want another warm drink, but you've already had too much caffeine (and don't really want to drink herbal tea)

Thinking about what self care looks like. Want to make a little zine. I know my list is not complete. What would you add?

List has:
self care
take meds
eat breakfast
take shower
make art
eat lunch
go to gym
chocolate bar
get hugs
sleep
and sound flow yoga

Dropping these three #quilts off at a local #dmv #art show featuring fabulous fibers! Honored to be included.

Show is in Alexandria VA at Delray Artisans.

@sarajw @hl definitely inspired! Hope you remembered to swap it out. I was always TERRIBLE at that part and the kids would have to leave notes for the tooth fairy so she would notice, because the tooth fairy was a very busy lady.

@hugo I feel like we got 2 days.

@hugo fuck no. I am so not ready for July in DC.

Hot take: ChatGPT/AI has no place in education. Neither teachers nor students should be using it.

Y'all realize that libraries, which we venerate (on the whole) are a GOVERNMENT SERVICE.

We need to venerate all government services.

Just putting this out there. We need to stop talking about how libraries are free. They are not free. I am happy to pay for their services with my tax dollars and I'd be happy to pay for other things like health care etc with my tax dollars so these services are available to EVERYONE.

@BethanyBlack @brainwane So, wait, if I improve my V02 max I won't have to breath (hardly) while exercising?

@clacke @schratze @loren @inherentlee ah yes, one of the downsides of federation.

@schratze @inherentlee @loren I've been saying since I got here that we ought to be able to post to our instance only, which is what you are saying here, with the different timeline options, right?

Granularity/opt-in is everything.

First bird of 2024 (ok, I'm joking. A little)

As people start to rack up their year end accomplishments, I'd like to offer this:

did you love someone this year?
Did you spend any time making your life better?
Did you spend any time making someone else's life better?

If all you did was survive, that is AOK. We are living in tough times.

@thomasfuchs I'm sorry, but the attention to detail is just maddening. Like, what is wrong with us? Why don't we produce items like this any more?

Also, if you return it for faulty stitching, does that mean I can have it now? lol! (I don't think that's actually faulty stitching .. rather it's the fabric disintegrating, which is a whole nother level of interest(ing), tbh)

@thomasfuchs hm, that link didn't work for me :(

@thomasfuchs that handle/clutch thing is amazing

@hipsterelectron are they confusing gaudy with elegant, perhaps?

@futzle @acb @carithlee I absolutely love how nerdy this thread got. Thank you.
