For the next WordHack @babycastles on 5/21, 7pm Eastern, I've set up a virtual book table

You can buy new computer-generated books by featured readers Lillian-Yvonne Bertram & Jörg Piringer!

Purchases will please you and will also help nonprofit book distributor Small Press Distribution and the two nonprofit publishers

Shot of wheatgrass? ITYM shot of sprouts

I was going to ask if there was a free software knockoff of the Bianca's Smut Shack chat system

Wow this is still online

This is a truly bizarre and fascinating computational project involving BBC BASIC and finally wrapped up into a GIF 89a; along with songs by the Velvet Underground and the Pixies, my project Curveship was even implicated in its making http://thenewriver.us/here-comes-her-man/

Of many computational poetry workshops I've led or co-led, today's (fortunately with the help of Rafael Pérez y Pérez!) was the first one I've ever done in Spanish

The full name is actually "X Æ A-12'); DROP TABLE Students;--" isn't it?

Viva Zaragoza.

Update: I was able to fix this problem in a rather classic way: Turn computer off, turn on again.

In my defense, the upgrade process did involve several automatic reboots and seemed to have finished without needed a manual one at the end.

Do not upgrade to pop!_os 20.04 right now! I imagined that an LTS development release would be well-tested and stable, but my Galago Pro now is without *any* USB, Bluetooth, or built-in webcam support.

80% of Mastodon is people saying things like 'I, man, am damned, I am a maiden madman, am I?' except it isn't even a palindrome

Very nice to see this article up on the MIT site covering some of my #C64 art & poetry projects https://arts.mit.edu/commodore-64/

Shuffling

Love made him
a hater

turned away
and at her

confined now
upon earth

in stanzas
of the heart

It’s a bad time to run out of embossing tape for my label maker

I just discovered that I have a directory Active/Zzz/Back_Burner

Excellent WordHack tonight @babycastles with Everest Pipkin & Paolo Pedercini
