Apparently besides the Inca road network there are also pre-Incaic roadways out there (or here)…

For some reason chocolate is especially big in Celendin. They call this ‘chocolate shilico’ or ‘shilicolate’ (Shilico=Celendino)

I had my first mind blown moment 🤯 with regard to AI capabilities in a while. You might have heard about the recent trend of reverse engineering stuff using AI (e.g. Adobe suite was shared). I wanted to test it and it took me 6 min to get the Win software for my PC case display working on Linux.

A starry night

Phone photograph of night sky. Bottom right hand corner, trees are visible as black silhouettes backed by diagonal pale clouds. As the clouds thin, the sky becomes blue and then black. Stars are visible as pinpricks of light.

I've decided to start writing about the charming chronic pain syndrome I've lived with (mostly quite happily) for more than twenty years now. Episode 1: When I Thought it Was my Tooth. substack.com/@owlofathena...

What referred pain refers to

The first time I remember it, it was in Germany.

LGBTQ rights are human rights. It was true long before I was officiating same-sex marriages in San Francisco, and it will always be true. On National Coming Out Day, California celebrates the LGBTQ community and the resilience that defines you.

I think it just looks like wicker furniture. I can assure you that the taste is significantly different.

I don’t think I’m ever going to get the appeal of pivoting to video for podcasts. I’ve been listening to podcasts for 20 years, and never once have I thought, my God, I need to SEE these people! I’m on a walk or doing the dishes, I don’t need video.
