"specialmagic", MIDI song I made today using my best friend @imrlyrobyn 's E-Mu Sound Engine, an obscure General MIDI sound module from the early 90s, made with Rosegarden MIDI sequencer for linux #midi#music#original#retro#rosegarden#special
This is Red Eyes Coffee in North Center and it is our neighbourhood coffee shop. We only live about a two minute walk from here and we go very often. We go so often we feel like it is our second living room.
It has very reasonable prices and is not fussy or pretentous. A cozy place that is perfect on a sunny and a rainy day.
Every time I visit this place, I think of the millions of Bahá'ís who would love to pilgrimage here. What may be a journey that costs them thousands of dollars and represents a lifetime dream is for me a subway journey of about an hour and a half. I’m very lucky.

@tylersticka@mia and it's not only related to html and body because both of them are as tall as your content and yet the background fill all the screen because everything is propagated to the canvas (yes another actor in play)
REALLY sick of hearing about how you have the experience to make value judgements about the experience of being diagnosed as a child.
I get that the diagnosis is a revelation.
And it is. I agree .
But i want to puke remembering how that "privilege" was used to justify telling kids "IF you manage to prove that you are able to emulate a person you can be awarded honorary adult status"
Otherwise you count as something between a child and an animal
@CatHat This is curious. I don’t feel #special because I “successfully” #masked all these decades. I can’t know if it would have been better had I been #DX as a kid. I never got into real trouble, but there are many parts of my youth I don’t care to remember. It was awful. Each time I peeled back the #onion, thinking that I knew why, there was more. Now I know #AuDHD was underneath it all. Not alone but there. @actuallyautistic#ActuallyAutistic
These T**** statements also underscore why a #trial should happen soon to minimize future #threats.
#DoJ has filed a motion for a PROTECTIVE ORDER in the t**** #coup case based on donald’s social media posts. DoJ argues that improper dissemination of evidence could have a chilling effect on witnesses.
NEW: And now, on a Saturday, (appearing unwilling to waste much time) #Judge Chutkan has given Donald until 5pm ET Monday to respond to the #special#counsel's #motion for a #protective#order following Donald's ostensible threat post on social media:
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee Reps. Justin Pearson and Justin Jones, who became Democratic heroes as members of the so-called “Tennessee Three,” are hoping to once again reclaim their legislative seats Thursday after they were expelled for involvement in a gun control protest on the House floor....

FLASH: #OathKeepers Founder Stewart Rhodes has been transferred to the Cumberland federal correctional facility in Maryland.
He's set to serve 18 years in Jan 6 seditious conspiracy case.
maga criminal in prison, convicted of #SeditiousConspiracy here working with Trump advisor Mike #Flynn (Flynn convicted of lying to the FBI about contacts with Russians) and Patrick Byrne (his GF is a convicted Russian spy).
▪️From 2 sources, familiar with the #special#counsel#grand#jury on #J6 that Trump's consideration of using purported fed. authority to seize voting machines is under scrutiny. SC probing whether there was criminal intent to build a premise for delay/block in certification.
▪️Why this matter... investigators are interested in whether Trump was CHOOSING, verbally and in documented exchanges, to buy into Powell/Flynn suggestion that, by claiming voting machines were problematic, the election had to be sent back to the states.
▪️See p. 194 of Peril. Look at what Trump says to the group in the room, per our reporting: "I care about getting these machines... I want to get these machines & I have a right to do so... "
▪️One element of this is that Giuliani despised Sidney Powell & crew and thought they were encroaching on his turf. So the SC, is looking at how Rudy was working states for Trump, all while Powell/Flynn were working machine angle. Related but diff't schemes ...
@mariyadelano@actuallyautistic I haven't written on it but I have casually observed that the #fediverse is an acceptable and safe place to discuss our #special#interests at length and detail and have people genuinely intrigued by what we have to offer. Some of us (like myself) are experts in the minute details of the way networks and communications operate.
It's been a place of education and teaching for me: A real respite from the skullduggery and exhaustion that being #neurodivergent in a #neurotypical work can really and truly be.
