Not only do I have swashbuckling soprano catgirls, but I also got transatlantic maglevs and magic swords.

FIRE!

Look who decided to help.

Just had some rando try to sell me on their preferred static site generator, Hugo, and it looks like the only thing Hugo gives me that Pelican does not is speed.

And why should I care about speed when I've already got a shell script that pulls my repository, builds it, and uploads it to my host -- and a cron job that calls it four times a day?

A static site generator only needs to be fast if you run it manually, and why should I do that?

mrw somebody who isn't a biologist invokes evolution as an explanation for why things are a certain way.

Oedipus, my motherfucking website starter for Pelican, now has a motherfucking screenshot in case anybody gives a shit.

Anybody who wants to use Oedipus should fork the repository. https://github.com/matthewgraybosch/oedipus-pelican-starter

A Nasa probe that explored Jupiter’s moon Europa flew through a giant plume of water vapour that erupted from the icy surface and reached a hundred miles high, according to a fresh analysis of the spacecraft’s data.

This is Josefine Malmgren and her kitty emulator Zero from my current #scifi/#fantasy project, SHATTERED GUARDIAN.

@Cakechoz accepted my commission and did the artwork. I love the expression on Josefine's face and the way Zero is tangled in the cable.

Got a pound of dry pinto beans and a ham hock bubbling away in there. Should be some good eating when it's done.

I haven't seen MARSHALL yet, but the score/soundtrack album by Marcus Miller is damn good.

The standout track is "Let America Be America Again".

Langston Hughes is still telling the truth.

It's kinda late for #showyourdesktopfriday, but I just finished setting up my new display and I have screenshots. So it's time for some #unixporn.

tmux config comes from https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux

GTK theme is OneStepBack.

Yes, I know I should use Window Maker for the full NeXTSTEP on #OpenBSD experience but cwm is the best window manager ever made.

This is what Birdsite execs and management should be doing right now.

#amwriting a new scene in Shattered Guardian. Naomi has just learned that somebody she loved and thought dead is in fact alive.

Now I'm cutting to twenty-four-hours ago and showing the immediate aftermath of his post-resurrection awakening.

Restoring the dead to life is easier when you can restore from backup, but unlike #alteredcarbon this #scifi resurrection tech isn't universally available.

BTW: I'm using the joe editor inside Cool Retro Term (https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term) on #OpenBSD. :)

How much are those kitties in the window?

PS: #Sundered is a brutal action-RPG with crunchy Lovecraftian goodness and a female POC as its protagonist.

Unfortunately, Eshe doesn't get to actually say anything. There are situations where she ought to be able to say, "Oh, shit."

Like this...

I #amwriting my new #scifi novel Shattered Guardian a little at a time on lunch breaks.
