<p>Just your friendly, neighbourhood bearded troll. Toils in the software mines for kroner. Plays games. Reads the odd book. Knits. Reminiscences about the good old days when computers were eight bit, men were _real_ men, women were _real_ women and small, furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were _real_ small, furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.</p>

"They stink," said Badger with a huff. "I'm sorry, but it's the truth. They reek." As the moot was winding down, talk had turned to the animals' regular peeve: the humans. "And they're so clumsy!" Deer added. "Have you seen one trying to run?" There was a mutter of agreement. Humans certainly looked silly trying to run and there was no denying they had a certain odour to them. 1/4 #fiction #shortStory #fable #cats

I hope that when the history books for these times are written the focus will not be on the many inexcusable transgressions and abuses of a few named sociopaths in power, but instead on the moral cowardice and dereliction of the people and institutions whose duty and responsibility it was to prevent them.

@dtm @virbonus @fesshole It really _does_ affect the taste. I suspect it&#39;s because boiling water in the microwave takes less time and doesn&#39;t induce convection currents so that the water retains more dissolved air than when boiled in a pot or a kettle, but that&#39;s just my personal theory. (Re-heating a cold cup of tea in the microwave is fine.)

So I&#39;ve been playing _way_ too much #Timberborn over the last month or so, and figured I&#39;d share my Folktails central station layout. It transfers! It irrigates! It gives the wet fur and several decoration bonuses, _and_ it provides somewhere to get snacks and books for a long journey. (P.S. Don&#39;t forget to add the path in the middle of the pond.) #beaverGame #cityBuilders #folktails #zipline

@neurovagrant@masto.deoan.org @cstross@wandering.shop Faery rings are trouble, but it's the Faery _token_ rings that keep system administrators up at night.
