I think it may be time to wander back out of the Indieweb rabbit hole and climb into bed. This has been a lot of fun, and tomorrow will definitely be RTFM Friday, (actually, no it won’t, because I have some emails to respond to and work to do), because I’m missing something. I’ve gotten set up with Bridgy, but still need to figure out how to merge accounts, because I have two of them. I will re-automate social sharing when I’m more awake. I need to switch plugins because it appears that Social has finally quit working as of WordPress 4.7. I’m not complaining. Hell, I got eight years out of the thing, across I don’t know how many WordPress versions. I also need to play around with changing the webmentions endpoint for this site so that Bridgy can handle them. There are extra meta boxes and I’m pretty sure I need to change it there but will do some more digging later. Oh, and I need to find out the extent of microformats in Genesis so I can add what’s not already there to this child theme and the one on customerservant.com. I also need to fix the typo in that post. Anyway, good night WordPress, and good night Indieweb, and good night IDE.

I think I have spent just about this entire day distracted with indieweb shiny objects. Currently setting up all my WordPress sites to accommodate. Here’s a quick guide with some tools if you’re interested. And really, you should be.

Every time you like a page on Facebook, kittens die. Facebook then decides to use your like as ad fodder for all your friends. And you can’t block them, and by block, I mean don’t ever show me this again because I don’t care and I’m not clicking on it or buying what you’re selling.

Dear The Facebook: Apparently it’s time for me to clear my cookies again, because when I logged into the Facebook to check on a notification, it didn’t ask for username and password. Also, we need to talk about all the email you’re sending. So yeah, time to go screw around with settings. God I hate the settings screens. All of them. And the ninth circle of hell that is threaded comments on the Facebook. God, interminable “View previous comments”. God help you if a post has more than ten comments. You’ll never get out again. It’s like an infinite loop of “What the hell!”. I mean, you can get back out, if you click the logo, or if you click on the original post, which may or may not reappear, and God help you if you leave a comment and want to pick up where you left off reading. Everybody on my Facebook just start blogging and get it over with. Then we can all leave. Make webrings great again!

I will not #DumpKelloggs. I'm going to be supporting them by buying the shit out of their cereal this weekend.

Gonna go out on a limb here and guess that #DumpKelloggs will be just as successful as the Hamilton boycott.

That time you find that there’s an outlet very very close to where you sit outside. Woohoo!

I’d like to wish a very happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow WordPressers, a11y people, hackers, blinks, and Jews.

Briefly switched to Eloquence, and the sound reminds me of what tape decks with dirty heads sound like. Ug.

Espeak has really grown on me. As in, I’ve gotten to the point where it’s easier on my ears and brain than Eloquence.

That time you have forty tabs open working on shit, and you press alt+f4 instead of ctrl+f4.
