The other day I was discussing some article feedback I had gotten on Mastodon to my wife, who does not use Mastodon (or any other social media much). The next day, she asked if I had gotten "any more tweets or moos" about my article.

So now, this is a thing. "Did you get any moos today?"

#moo

Tried out #Evennia with some friends yesterday - it's a popular #MUD / #MOO / #MUCK / etc construction set - we bounced around the tutorial world a bit and tried creating objects / rooms to play around with it. Seemed like an OK starting point but I wished it was more "opinionated" - there's a lot of class inheritance and Python needed to add functionality, which the authors assume you'd want to customize for your game in ways they couldn't predict.

But, idk, I wish that either it took some firmer stances on things (e.g. why am I allowed to teleport into another player's inventory? yes, "any Object can be a container for more Objects" is a theoretical design idea, but cmon really?) - OR - I wish it shipped with more "batteries". Would have been nice to have e.g. a stock object with a "use" verb that fires a canned phrase, instead of having to code that. Or one that teleports you, or a "clothes" you can "wear", and so on.
