@sundogplanets T-shirts?
For conferences, print a compact version that fits inside the plastic pocket you get for your conference ID and put it in the back, so you can just flip the badge to show it.

@evacide@hachyderm.io @mattblaze@federate.social Fortunately I am one of those who has never received a direct death threat online. Some other abuse, but not that.
I do wish that before I quit Twitter I'd saved that tweet from a guy who said I would die exactly five years after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. My anniversary is Saturday.

@davidaugust In about 80 years we've gone from a room full of computers the size of refrigerators that were good at crunching numbers but not much else to computers the size of corporate office parks that can draw almost-convincing pictures of people with five fingers (and thumbs, too!) but can't do elementary school math.
And some people call this progress.

@Richard_Littler Hey, Sam, you're described the future a friend envisioned four decades ago: artificial intelligence is the next best thing to being smart.
But some of us have *actual* intelligence, and we're fine we're with that. I successfully traded some of my intelligence for money during my career and my employers seemed satisfied. I mean, I've never put glue on a pizza and I can't draw humans with five fingers (AND a thumb!), but I did OK.

@Edmonds_Scanner How do I get invited to eat sushi and go clubbing* with seals? It sounds like fun!
- That’s nightclubbing, not clubbing seals, which doesn’t sound fun at all.

@Gargron@mastodon.social Congratulations! You have done great things with Mastodon and deserve a semi-retirement. I will always be glad to see your toots in my feed.
Special thanks for the wisdom to step aside. Wear your humility with pride!

@WizardOfDocs @MicroSFF I assumed (yes, dangerous, I know) that they have librarians but as visitors to an unfamiliar planet would need librarians knowledgeable about local planetary languages and literature.
But I might be over-thinking this.
