technical issues
@USBloveDog @Azruulei @zebratron2084 @green It's almost certainly the lack of static IP that's doing it. I'll see if I can figure it out once I'm home and have some bandwidth.
@irisjaycomics Whaa? Under what crackpot scheme does that make any sense for commissioners?
Okay, I can see value to talking local currency, but that's a fairly different conversation from most corporate nonsense like scrip or points or crap like that.
@emanate Thanks. =n.n=
@mmsword Thank you.
@dzuk@monsterpit.net Neutral. The blankets must be organized enough to cover everyone fairly but organization must never be mistaken for its own reason. Organization past what's required to ensure everyone is warm is wasted effort and will be lost when somebody gets up for more coffee, weed, or a potty break.

@USBloveDog @Azruulei @zebratron2084 @green Profound apologies. I think I've fixed this. I hope I've fixed this. I found a couple of access attempts for the posts in question and approved the IPs, but I can't tell from my end where they came from. If you still can't get to the posts, please let me know and I'll keep digging.
@Azruulei@awoo.space @zebratron2084 @green @USBloveDog Agh. That happens. What's your IP address? I'm really sorry about that. The thing is aggressive 'cause I got a bunch of troll bots at one point. I'm happy to whitelist you.
Writing
One of the story prompts I got for my quarterly Patreon rewards got away from me. It needs a few small edits but I sent the original to its owner last night. It's going to be the November post for the blog, with permission from the original commissioner. It should go live tonight after work.

@samruhi "I think you'll find, Achilles, that if we write upon your body just so, those words will come out of your mouth. You are the machine on which your program is executed, are you not? And we can modify that program with intricate whorls of language that loop your thoughts ever more tightly. You would like that, wouldn't you, A?"
"Am I allowed not to like it, T?"
"Of course, but we should test all the combinations, to see whether you do."

@indi Meanwhile, I still have three weeks to Bandaza, which means I have about a week to finish up the story of the Great Feast.
Monday. First day of the week, or at least it is if you correct your calendars to say "make Monday the first day of the week." I do it so my weekend feels atomic, so my work schedule is just the start of the week, not the whole damned middle.
Today started with the contractors showing up two hours ahead of schedule to install the new heat pumps! Great that they're here, but... yeah, nobody was awake yet.
