  • I really liked the intro melody to this game, took to sometimes humming it. Unfortunately, as I came to discover much later... yeah, it's a nazi anthem. So no more humming.

• I've been reading [[Red Plenty]] by [[Francis Spufford]]. It's very good.

• Lately life circumstances have meant I'm watching a lot more 'mass appeal' film and TV and reading less. Which is fine, it's entertaining and convivial to relationships… but sometimes feels like time not particularly well spent as far as my own interests go. Maybe if I whack in a bit of a pop [[cultural studies]] lens I'll get more out of it. Possibly horribly pretentious? Maybe, but hey ho, gotta be true to thine ownself.

• What are alternatives to the [[Hero's Journey]]?

• Cleaning the house time is also podcast time.

As of [[2022-03-26]]:

• An Agora exists. It is https://anagora.org pull.
• Flancia Collective exists. It is in the Agora.
• I try to write [[Wikilinks Everywhere]], even in platforms that don't yet support wikilink resolution. Please assume that all links point to https://anagora.org pull; they can be looked up there, or you can automatically resolve them using extensions.

I am back here after a long hiatus. 2020 happened, I was very busy at [[work]] working on [[Covid]] response and then on reliability projects. On my free time I built an Agora: some coding, some writing, lots of meeting interesting people. And, of course, I lived -- we lived :) Happily, I have to say. I am thankful.

All posts on flancia.org are also automatically published on anagora.org/@flancia as of the time of writing. I also write to the Agora from my digital garden as anagora.org/@flancian.
