I will have to go check that out I was unaware thanks! I tell you it's getting up and knowing there's more to learn more to explore more to work to course correct and more to grow that keeps me alive and grateful for life now. not access to health care or cutting-edge medicine.

The gratitude is all mine. I came across that talk on YouTube the other day. I was just so charmed. Missing Flash in retrospect? What I would give to have flash be the worst of our problems these days! Thanks to you all for keeping hope, humor, and opportunity alive for our Web.

Bitcoin. Cuz it was the only one back in that time. A friend made fun of me asking what real value backed up crypto. So I asked what current currency is based on in terms of real value. He kept quiet saying nothing. I retorted your silence? Now that? That is golden. 😛
I suspected the addition of the threaded post on Twitter was a feature created in order to mitigate one person's insistence on dot-dot dotting every tweet. The timing was right. I'm ass end of the Baby Boomers so not sure if it's a GenX thing or not.

There are real uses four ellipses. Is it social media especially Twitter and especially a former now blocked user of it that perhaps was also cause other than Gen X at large I'm the last year of the baby boom so I don't know. Do we even teach grammar to K-12 anymore?

Sadly not a new phenomenon and for the web it disturbs me as the optimism I had in 1993 led to being engaged in my career via w3c and advocacy and the fight for standards via web standards project. Social purpose and Technical innovation. How do you feel we should move forward?
There's a interview with me somewhere online very briefly telling the publisher at that time of peachpit press that the best way to earn followers was not to care at all. I don't care who follows I care who friends. I've made so many friends. I celebrate them all of my days.

She is doing something that is so counterproductive after having delighted the world with her work it is so distressing to see that and yet dissonance like that is wholly human. We are simultaneously brutal and capable of such incredible empathy. I'm so tired of anger and rage.
My husband was taken away from his parents by his native American grandma and raised by her on a reservation in KS. I wish I had known her! The stories he told of her were hilarious. I'd have loved her. PS bro and partner in Albany me in Tucson so we watch party every weekend.

"… And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence..."
Simon and Garfunkel, Sound of Silence
Was talking to friends about Strife in the world and flashed back to the Kingston Trio. 1959 the merry minuet anybody else remember this epic and still very relevant song? If not please enjoy if so enjoy it again! And happy Tuesday to you all.

It's nice to have a pleasant conversation with a Molly. I never got to know my grandma Molly I was named for her and my mom adored her mother-in-law so much for the stereotype. Watch party with my brother and his partner in Albany we do it weekly and have much fun. Bye for now!

This is not to say I didn't need lovely people along my travel routes I did in fact I made friends that I stay in contact here on Twitter today as well as Facebook that I met randomly in airports and train stations and we got to talking and made friends via online socializing.

It's interesting to see people be kind. I felt it during travel which had after so many decades of world hopping which was wonderful in terms of people and cultures and places I went and experiences I had but travel itself from place to other place was dirty, exhausting, unkind.

Thank you for your kind thoughts and yes it was a very pleasant experience. And it didn't appear to me at least as if people were trying to make everything nice nice they were actually either becoming accustomed to being nice or just perhaps the isolation of covid for so long?
