Here’s a poem in the shape of a Christmas tree. It’s called ‘Needles’.

Eva Green is one of the living greats and one of my favourite actors of all time. Last year I dug into her television work (The Luminaries, Penny Dreadful, Camelot) and how it relates to esotericism. That piece is now finally online as well. Enjoy!

Eva Green: Embracing the Esoteric - JumpCut Online

Over ten years of television performances, Eva Green has brought alive three very different mystics.

Automattic is one of the most important companies on the Internet.

They make Tumblr, WooCommerce, Akismet, LongReads, WordPress—among others.

WordPress alone powers ~44% of the world's websites.

More interesting: despite being such a large, dominant company, few people hate Automattic.

Listening to Lhasa de Sela, an immensely talented singer-songwriter that left us way too early. https://open.spotify.com/track/26Q1o2AeYMdGMwPhgcALR7?si=ac44da820d514e26

I made a website that allows you to verify from your Mastodon account that you also own a certain Twitter account. It uses Mastodon's verification feature with some added tricks: https://verifysocial.org To see it in action, visit my Mastodon profile.
verifysocial.org

This website proves the owner of one social account is also the owner of another. Its primary use is for people on Mastodon to link their Twitter account using Mastodon’s verification feature.

A cryptobro DMed me to ask if I wanted to join his mailing list.

I spent slightly too long making this to send in reply.
@janeruffino Such a lovely and happy picture you have on here, I hope you’re having a great Sunday!
Probably not a lot of people know this now, but Mastodon's web app started out with "Publish". In 2016 a famous YouTuber jokingly offered to support Mastodon's Patreon forever if I changed the button to say "Toot" instead. Needless to say, this was a really early, and not very informed decision. The first glimpse of attention and financial support. As a non-native speaker I had no idea there was another meaning.
@LexiA So happy your are here! You’re the person I’ve probably learned the most from over on that other place.
