Ice Cream and Cookies!
Their prices have increased significantly over the past year and a half. Perhaps this is why they don’t have the crazy lines outside the store like they used to. They’re apparently not making it up in volume anymore.
I’m including photos of the menu board to make comparing prices in the future easier.

📖 Read pages 111-123 of Ramona the Pest by Beverly Cleary
📖 Read pages 111-123, Chapter 7: The Day Things Went Wrong, of Ramona the Pest by (Scholastic Book Services, , ISBN: 0-590-04493-1)
Certainly not the most entertaining chapter of the book. Davy thinking that ‘Taterpillars could have started with a ‘t’ was entertaining as was the description that Ramona was sure her father was the tooth fairy and she wanted to catch him in the act. The rest was just a set up for the final chapter which actually played better not having read this one prior to it.

👓 Untangling @WithKnown plugin conflicts on the #IndieWeb (Reactions vs Bookmarks)
Regarding various Known post types there is a story I would say I think so because at least for me it took so long to sort it out on my instance. After I've installed Known on my domain some time in july 2016 I have realized the Repost and Like post types don't appear to be available right on the ma...
sub·men·tion (noun informal): 1. A post about someone or something on a personal website where one neglects (accidentally or on purpose) to either send a webmention and/or syndicate a copy out to an appropriate social silo. 2. Such a post which explicitly has the experimental microformat rel=”nomention” which prevents webmention code from triggering for the attached URL. 3. Any technologically evolved form of apophasis (Greek ἀπόφασις from ἀπόφημι apophemi, “to say no”) which sends no notifications using standard Internet or other digital protocols.
Origin
Early 21st century: a blend or portmanteau of subliminal and webmention.
Pronunciation
submention /ˈsʌbˈmɛn(t)ʃ(ə)n/

I hadn’t been paying attention and Lanyrd, yet another social site I used to use, has apparently gone under. Wish I’d had some notice to extract my data out of the service before it raged into the dying of the light.
I ought to start a “dead pool” for making odds on the next social media sites to disappear.
👓 The IndieWeb outside of Facebook is full of opportunities | The Garage
Promote your own site, or promote on Facebook? Turns out you can do both, and do even better: have your website join the IndieWeb.
Great piece, though I think it simplifies things a bit more than they’re easily capable of doing now for a Gen 2 person, which seems to be who this piece is geared towards.

Create your own podcast: find links to audio files on the Web; huffduff the links (add them to your podcast); subscribe to podcasts of other found sounds.
I tell almost everyone I know who’s into web audio and podcasts how much I love Huffduffer.
While the site does a pretty good job of describing itself and the fact that it has a wonderful bookmarklet, I’ll also point out that Ryan Barrett has a video bookmarklet for it that “extracts the audio from videos on YouTube, Vimeo, and many more sites and sends it to Huffduffer.”
If you’re a podcastaphile, it’s a de rigueur tool. While I publish a listen feed on my website, you can also follow me on Huffduffer if you wish. If you’re using it, do let me know so I can add you to my “collective”. This will let me find the great audio you’re discovering.
I should tell Jeremy Keith more often I love that he runs this little service: Thanks for making the world so much brighter!
