6 instances, 1087 communities, 27 users.

I should probably look at unblocking the instances. I used those blocks early on to remove a massive number of communities I was uninterested in, but it has the side effect of also functionally blocking those users.

I do wish there were better tagging and filtering tools. Some of the communities I’ve blocked might have posts I’m interested in, but there’s currently no way to surface those from under the mountain of memes.

I’d also love to be able to block posts but not comments from specific users. There’s a handful of topics I don’t care about, and some of the blocked users are just very interested in those topics.

And auto collapse comments with inline images (although that’s more of an app feature than a Lemmy feature).

Yeah, a few seconds with a fork, and toasting the bread or swapping to crackers and you’re basically at something that’s fit to give to others again.

Variant on your dish: bake sweet potato, add cottage cheese and eat immediately. Add sweet or savory seasonings to taste. It’s not something I’d bring to share, but it’s definitely not something I’ll hide. As far as quick and dirty meals, it’s reasonably healthy, and probably not the worst suggestion for someone who struggles to cook for themselves.

Actual goblin food: canned black olives between two slices of bread, smush down to prevent them from rolling out.

My brain did something similar, but maybe weirder.

7 + 3 + 6, rather than 9 + 1 + 6.

Mammals are supposed to have hair. Don’t try to pretend you’ve seen a whale with a bob or braids. Ishmael was 100% right here.

There’s a chapter where Ishmael gets mad that all the whales are named wrong. He spends a while renaming them better.

It’s a very odd book. I quite liked it, but it’s definitely in the recommend with caution group.

I’m not sure if these will exactly fit the bill for horror for you, but they scratched a similar genre itch for me:

  • The Terror - Dan Simmons
  • Plain Bad Heroines - Emily M Danforth

I’ve been listening to 2666 by Roberto Bolaño. So far I’ve been enjoying it, even though I have no idea where it’s supposed to be going. I can’t imagine the current plot thread persisting through 28 hours.

I loved the first third of Neuromancer. The rest largely felt like it failed to deliver, and a bit like it went off the rails. Count Zero was a bit better in execution.
