Question for Twine users
Do you have strong feelings about whether to use Twine 2.0 on the web or with a desktop app? If so, why?
I'm on Linux Ubuntu and have a very little practice with the desktop app.
Thanks!

@typhlosion mastodon is dead, bepis has taken over, twitter is now made up only of blind people and @McMemeBot exists.
Also something about gay
This article says that the rabbis ascribed to the biblical Solomon the wisdom to "sweeten lupines," and I thought it meant Solomon could make wolves friendly or amorous, but it turns out lupines are a kind of pea which is disappointing.

@cnc@cybre.space And there was that one Super Bowl snickers commercial that was homophobic as heck, where two guys literally physically beat themselves up b/c sharing a snickers from each end almost made them kiss. Why couldn't it be 3 Musketeers who make that commercial I could do without those easily.

I must really like the phrase "constraints and affordances," to use it four times in one essay. Maybe it's the rhythm.

STRAINTS and afFORDances."

@gamehawk Ugh! People. I can hate on the house sparrows and starlings crowding the feeders as much as the next cranky homeowner, but come on. They're trying to scratch out a living as much as me or any Bluebird. Bygones, already.

@gamehawk Especially the females and the juvenile males! Drab, drab, drab. They really need to smash the patriarchy and seize the means of pigmentation.

I'm working this week in an office building that's part of a way-overdeveloped series of malls in the burbs. Turns out there's this Nature Conservancy on the edge, and I took a walk there on my lunch. Saw:
Eastern kingbird
American goldfinch
Killdeer
Great blue heron
Egret
Sparrow sp *
Buteo sp
Ringbill gull
Dabbling duck sp
Kingfisher
Barn swallow
* "sp" = "some damned species." When I see a sparrow, or a duck, I feel very smart that I know it's not a chicken, or pterodactyl.
Favorite instance where I don't have an account:

@oliver@witches.town Yard work in a bathrobe also gives them something to think about before they sidle up for a cup of damned sugar.
