Anyone have a guide to using #bookwyrm they like or have found helpful?
I've had a few friends sign up and mention they were a bit confused about getting started, finding people, finding/adding books, etc. Ideally something geared toward users who are familiar with the fediverse but still a bit new to it. #askFedi
@peoplelikedogs I would reccomend the guided tour on every #bookwyrm instance (found in the footer) as that was perfect for me the first time. Just follow up on what it says to continue the tour, and you should be good. If you have any more questions i would ask the admins/mods of the instance, or do this (asking for help), on online platforms like #mastodon or #lemmy.
Also shoutout Javanese ppl for inventing tempeh!!! Been trying to read up on the history while working on all this and it's definitely hard to find stuff that isn't from a total colonialist and/or gross western "healthfood" perspective, but it does seem like there's some movement both in Indonesia and more broadly to encourage tempeh consumption and home production because of it's such a low cost and tasty protein. If anyone knows of any good english or french language anticolonial tempeh history I'm def interested.
Reminder that when there's lots of meta going on you gotta just start posting about weird noise shows you went to, or pictures of your dog, etc, so that fedi doesn't become human centipede
Was trying to figure out why there's a picture of a TV on this bike box and realized its a galaxy-brain move on the part of the bike company to get shippers to actually handle it carefully 😭
I have a friend who wants to try doing some bike camping this summer, and is looking for nice camping spots or routes they can ride to for an overnighter or possibly 2-3 day trip from portland (the idea is to get rid of their car, so they wanna make sure they can still go do woods stuff without it). They have a decent bike with gears and good brakes and stuff but are probably mostly into roads or gravel paths and not so much into more technical/mountain bike trails or anything too wild. Let me know if you have any tips or good resources (websites, whatev), thanks!! :boostRequest:
