@viv perhaps their lack of ass means they directly drop shit simultaneously as it gets produced? That would make them the only person without any shit at all, at any given time.
@niconiconi Obviously, Netscript.
Imagine it's 1995 and you are the CEO at Netscape. You have a chance to give JavaScript a proper name (other than the marketing name JavaScript, or the name ECMAScript that only came after the later standardization), what would it be? #JavaScript
The evil #tea connoisseur has this technique for intimidating a rival: mention an ordinary daily-drinker tea they both know well, and say of it "Wow, I get a huigan from it that lasts at least an hour!"

Battle of Culloden
On this day, 275 years ago, the biggest disaster in Highland history took place on Drummossie Moor, Culloden, near Inverness.
A Highland army, supporting Bonnie Prince Charlie, made the fatal error of fighting a *pitched* battle against the British army, led by Butcher Cumberland.

views from a mountain
celebrated being able to travel further than 5km for the first time this year by going for a sunset hike up errigal
it's the third time i've been up this mountain and it was definitely the toughest ascent so far given how little walking/hiking/climbing/general exercise i've done in the last few months but the views at the top took away what little was left of my breath, definitely worth it

In the search for a desktop writefreely editor I came across 'ThiefMD'. Odd name for a program that'll let you write, in markdown, for writefreely, ghost and WordPress.
There're also local save options too
