There are few things more heartbreaking than a kid upset by her runny nose but even more upset by taking medicine that will get rid of it.

I foolishly signed up to lead one of the teams for the chili cook-off that my kids’ school puts on every year. I’m going to use mole poblano as the base — but I’m undecided about the protein. Pork? Chicken? Turkey?

I suspect that conspiracy theorists have never been project managers.

Here’s an idea: when someone’s having an emotion in front of you, start by believing them. You lose nothing and they might feel seen. Everybody wins.

Hi Fedinauts. I have a #software #question.

I release books on a regular schedule.

I'm behind, this year, because life has been chaotic.

But I release books.

Previously, I handled most of my layout work for this in (*shudder*) MS Word.

I did this because Word handled large documents with complicated layout better than LibreOffice, and I had access to word through various corporate machines.

I don't have word anymore. I don't want word.

I need tips on something else to use?

I’m almost done binge-listening to Silver on the Tree, by Susan Cooper. What should I listen to next?

Have you ever run into an issue where tabbing through a document breaks partway through & you get kicked to the browser chrome? I’m running into an issue where this is happening for some folks using Firefox, but not for me.

Dear Mastodon client app makers:

I’d love a Mastodon client that can show combined timelines (aka unified inbox). Even more if the client could also show timelines from Twitter (could even be read only?). Perhaps RSS support.

I miss the times of apps like Adium that would allow you to chat with people regardless of IM network.

It’s Hazel’s first day of threes preschool, & she’s so excited to go! When we arrived, she shoved me out of the classroom & said, “I can do it on my own, dad.” mastodon.social/media/LdRqTfum
