Chanukah is upon us next week, and I’ve added to my Youtube Chanukah playlist, which complements my digital music collection of Chanukah songs. It includes some fun ones from Acapella groups that do an annual Chanukah song. I have over 150 tracks otherwise…and may pick up more ideas… Sirius XM’s Radio Hanukkah launches December 20th to 31st on Channel 788. Chanukah is an 8 night holiday, gets 11 days of music. Christmas gets 11 Sirius channels that begin November 1st…Clearly we need more Chanukah songs…they are running out.

I just set up b2evolution CMS/blog(s) ver 6.11.4. It has the ability to send and receive Webmentions as per the Indieweb. This was discussed before but now I can confirm. I’m still wandering around the backend getting familier with it.
With holidays cards rolling in daily, it's the time of year where my wife has to continually respond to me with "yes, they've had # kid(s) for A WHILE NOW" with a heavy eye roll as if I'm supposed to remember ever.... oh crap I left the keys in the car brb

I very much enjoyed reading What Happened to Tagging, by Alexandra Samuel, so thanks to Aaron Davis for the link . I do think, however, that she is being entirely too negative about the state of play today. Aaron singled out one wistful quote, about the web we could have. I noted that the author cou...

First day of my IndieWeb Challenge for December and it's going to be about Lwa. I think this whole week might be! I've released a "stable" candidate that lets you know what your site needs to work with it. Be sure to try it out and let me know what you think! I've also added a page to let you previe...
When people are getting started in the indieweb, we commonly point them to IndieWebify.Me to validate some of the building blocks on their site. One of those building blocks is the h-card microformat which is used to markup information about yourself: your URL, name, photo, bio, and more. Earlier th...

It does actually work, but the functionality that enables the posting needs a lot more backend work before it will work properly. Problem is that the WordPress post endpoint does not allow you to set a t...

Want to know what I do as soon as I see "blockchain" in someone's bio? I BLOCKchain them (cue rimshot).

I don't think I've ever seen a good tech take from a blockchain enthusiast, or a crypto enthusiast for that matter.
Man, I fucking love when I come back to Twitter or Instagram after a while, and I'm deep in the feed, and I start reading where I left off, and BAM! — full refresh; scrolled to the top.
No chance to finish a thought, no gentle ascension — just straight whiplash. Feels good.

Because when that picture was taken at the end of the 1920s, the Klan wasn't just tied to one political party.

It had well-documented ties to Democrats and Republicans alike.
