Get your weekly Mr. Mark E. Smith fix, #FallFriday is here…

Social Media peaked with Path. I can’t believe it took this long to realize how much it inspired my website. Beyond the timeline design, I continue to use mostly private or unlisted posts that are only shared with friends or in my family’s WhatsApp group.

However, I’ve started publishing some of those entries to populate the “Timeline”, apologies if that results in a bit of spam in your Feed reader 😅

💭

It’s been quite rewarding curating my Fediverse feed to be quiet and interesting enough to read and interact with directly from my RSS reader, even on mobile using iOS Shortcuts. I’m reading a couple of newsletters and replying to my favorite blogs/microblogs while keeping up with my friends movies and album recommendations on Letterboxd and RYM, all via RSS and Webmentions. I scratched one of my IndieWeb goals ✅

💭

Finally pushed my custom GoBlog-Letterboxd plugin to GitHub! 🎉 This means I can now shut down my Huginn instance, as the code can be repurposed for any future (PESOS) cross-posting needs.

Me yesterday: Oh it’s finally warm to go on a bike ride…

The weather today…

Been listening to this Chinese Rock gem every single day for the past 2 weeks or so. Simplicity, passion, energy, feedback/distortion and an amazing homage to Sonic Youth too.

⚽ Holy cow! Liverpool just put 7, yes, SEVEN goals past Man. United. That’s 7-0 😱

I have an Instagram account exclusively for keeping in touch with family and friends back in 🇨🇴. I’d log in once or twice a month, but today I was greeted with this:

"We suspended your account" message "Upload a selfie so we can verify is you" message

And now I don’t have an Instagram account 🤷🏽‍♂️

💭

Have a GoBlog feature idea… run it by Jan-Lukas… 15 minutes later it’s implemented. And so the cycle repeats… #GoBlog rules 👏🏽
