Reading Don’t Think of an Elephant to cheer myself up post-#GE2015. Focused on US politics, but relevant wherever there are language-using humans. ESSENTIAL read.
#KSP scientific instrument malfunction gives insight into Kerbin’s internal structure; continents rest on dense mushroom soup layer; nature of lower levels still unclear:
#GE2015 is bringing back memories of checking last election results on my brick phone from a tent at a hurdy gurdy festival.

@Hurdy_Rique greetings! I’m good thanks, haven’t made any gurdies for two years whilst living in Iceland, but I’m moving to Germany in July to start a workshop there. How are you getting on with your new Hilsmann?
I’m not sure any of my bowls are profound enough for this soup recipe:
deray mckesson@deray looking forward to reading it! Any way we can support your work? E.g. Patreon?

Send a one-line drawing to the moon! I drew a hurdy gurdy: http://www.moondrawings.org/drawing/ubuafrct surprisingly difficult with only one line of finite length.
Steaming is rapidly becoming my favourite way of cooking things.
Any ideas why the Icelandic locale in #python+natsort doesn’t correctly sort Icelandic characters alphabetically (aábcdðeé etc)? I just implemented a rather awkward hacky way of sorting them using the alphabet and natsort.versorted, but would rather find a way to correct the root issue.
Just released mf2/mf2 v0.2.10! This long-awaited update is all the hard work of @dissolve333 and contains some minor parsing algorithm fixes and support for parsing <area> elements. Thanks Ben!

@vicenteparrilla nice! I’ve found German and Austrian museums to be some of the best for old instruments. The Deutsches Museum Munich, Technisches Museum Vienna and Vienna museum of ancient instruments are really worth checking out.
Based on the numbers of people dressed up as traffic cones, I’d say it’s probably graduation day in Reykjavík.
@|p^)@w03_ wow such pizza — not like the peel wasn’t completely broken already :)

Tried watching Türkisch für Anfänger for German practice and learned two things: my hearing comprehension is much worse than I anticipated, and Lena is really, really annoying.
Last year’s Tradition for Tomorrow in Akureyri was a fun festival, and this June it’s being re-born as Vaka. There’s a bunch of awesome artists playing including Jackie Oates, SANS and Dråm. I will be going! You should too.
