    Schwäbische Maultaschen and potato salad. My attempt at a German regional speciality! Basically like ravioli or potstickers. 😋

    Good grief. Have now received FIVE emails over the last month from @fortismediaofcl begging me to let them place a sponsored article on my personal blog. Must everything be monetised? SEO killed the Internet.


    @gilmae Any specific fic recommendations? 😂 I think I’m finally, finally hitting the bottom of the Good Omens barrel.


    RT @ajaynairthinks: 1/Extensions is about removing yet another snowflakiness about #awslambda. For most #serverless folks, this will manife…


    @pwcc Congrats!!


    @gilmae I spent first third thinking it was depressing, then middle third realising I dated Draco Malfoy in high school, and then by the end I was loving it, and then “Draco sends Ron a box of wine. On the box he had sharpied the message: ‘HIT BOTTOM ALREADY’” honestly made me LOL.


    @randomknits Ugh I miss having a decently stocked bar.

    Ooh, AWS Community Day ANZ is coming up! You should definitely submit a talk proposal. I attended the last two years, and it’s always a good day of learning and sharing. ❤️🇦🇺🇳🇿 https://t.co/K2BDMzn4Kp

    @CatSwetel I think it would vary based on context. On the bus or at a concert? Pretty damn close. At a conference or in the kitchen at work – maybe a couple feet?


    @CatSwetel Thank you! My illustrator friend @4colorcowboy drew it for me a few years back and I knitted him a scarf in exchange. ❤️

    @mtnygard @randyshoup Early Canva worked that way IIRC. It caused a lot of problems. People would complain that their designs were missing, not realising they were spawning new accounts each time!


    RT @baddestmamajama: random men, if you like 4 of my selfies in a row on Instagram at least show me the respect of liking one dog or baking…


    @ThePepperCherry Nope. But tbh I’m actually not a fangirl. I think… it’s overrated! Not been impressed the few times I’ve knitted with it.
