Having spent the last week driving across the mid-west I've learned what everyone already knew.
The place is impossibly beautiful.
The sky is bigger than I've ever seen.
The horizon is further away than i've ever had to squint before.

Honestly folks, it's exhausting.

Be careful whilst driving here, folks.
Vista-fatigue is real.

@mbonsma Buen Camino to Jen!

My friend Jen was in a car crash a decade ago. Today she begins an epic four-week roll on the Camino after achieving her first self-propelled movement in ten years this past spring with this recumbent bike. Her journey is about so much more than bikes, but wow, that bike is cool.

Read more about her story and follow her trip on her blog: https://www.jenschuringa.com/

Introducing Masto Reader. Like Thread Reader App, but for Mastodon.

How does it work? Mention @mastoreaderio(@mastodon.social) anywhere in a thread and say "unroll" and the little bot will do the rest.

Here's an example (that takes a bit to load for reasons)

https://mastoreader.io/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmastodon.gamedev.place%2F%40badlogic%2F111071396799790275

You can share those links with others.

Links to the crappy source code can be found in the bot's profile.

Everything runs in your browser. The server doesn't log anything either.

Enjoy and spread the word.

@nvraemdonck Yes, it’s an essential point to remember when embarking on studies, and it’s one that scholarship on other aspects of communication does well to remember. Plus, Sonia’s great!
Classic.
@flockofnazguls Amazing! Thank you for sharing.

For the curious, I've listed which font was preferred by Mastodonians vs. Blueskies, in every #fontbracket match where they differed.

Great game everyone! What kind of bracket should we do next time?

Next session at #LTCU2023 is close to my heart: thoughts on CPD among academic staff for more effective personal tutoring. The subtitle is important: “supporting yourself in order to support your students”.
