I have a chicken and egg problem.

When I publish a blog article I want to include a link to a corresponding Mastodon post. To write the Mastodon post, the article needs to be live. But to publish the blog article, I need the URL to the Mastodon post. But I don’t know the Mastodon post URL until I publish it. Ahhhhh!!

Am I really going to have to deploy my site, post a toot, then turn around and add the link to my site and deploy again? Ugh, there’s got to be a better way.

@bw same, I've just resigned to editing the blog post

you could probably do this with some sort of webhook

@bw I think @cory is doing something like this, though I don't know the particulars.

☎️ Waiting for a phone call may be one of the worst things in the world.

In classic fashion, stepped outside (phone in pocket!) and missed the dang call!

Okay, so, proposal to get rid of the phone part of our pocket computers, go back to having a single solitary place for a call, which defaults to a message/voicemail, and is the expected result of calling said phone, instead of this stupid always-with-you-yet-you-never-get-or-take-the-call game we are playing now.

Weird content styleguide question: do you provide yourself rules on which <hx> level heading is title-case, sentence-case, etc? or is that just me?

Are we over these people trying to disrupt intelligence yet?

@mph Unfortunately, I'm going with "no." (though I have long been over it)
