No, today is not a Jewish holiday, but Chanukah, The Festival of Lights, begins at sundown!
Chanukah is a holiday to be celebrated publicly, so share your celebration with us! Take a picture of your lit menorah tonight and tag it #chanukahproject and we’ll likely reblog it!
Happy Chanukah! - !חנוכה שמח
LPT: Keep a note on your phone and add gift ideas to it when friends and family casually mention their interests. It makes gift buying during Christmas and birthdays a hell of a lot easier.
Today’s aesthetic: when you start crossposting personal stuff to your RP blog because you’re too lazy to switch, and eventually it just ends up being your personal blog in practice, but you never formally stepped out of character, so now it’s basically an autobiographical RP blog about the surprisingly mundane life of a giant squid from space (or whatever).
@shiftingpath replied:
you always hold up how you’ve seen a billion examples of any individual thing you blog about so i just have to assume you either write or read (or write and read) a lot of giant squid rp
Not giant space squids specifically, no, but I’ve seen this trajectory go down with several RP blogs involving other sorts of weird fantasy/Dungeons & Dragons beasties.

40% of Detroiters have no internet access. The Detroit Community Technology Project and similar projects across the city are skipping over the telcos altogether and wiring up their own mesh broadband networks, where gigabit connections are transmitted by line-of-site wireless across neighborhoods from the tops of tall buildings; it’s called the Equitable Internet Initiative.
This is possible in part because of the ubiquitous abandoned dark fiber, which runs under the streets of Detroit, as it does across many US cities, unused and dormant. The project relies on “digital stewards” who undergo a 20-week training program that teaches them to pull fiber, configure routers, and install and service microwave antennas, as well as teaching their communities to use the services delivered over the internet.
Each local mesh is designed to wire together a neighborhood on an intranet that would continue to function even in the event of internet outages, providing a resilient hub for organizing responses to extreme weather, natural disasters, and other crises.

Nothing like drinking a nice, refreshing tin of fat.
