Final stages before submitting a manuscript and getting angry with the journal's citation style that's APA7-but-not-quite-in-a-number-of-small-petty-ways. Checked the #Zotero stylesheet repository and found that a kind soul has already uploaded a stylesheet for that journal! 🙏 Unfortunately, it was created when the journal had their specially petty version of APA6 so I need to edit it. Okay, fine. And that's how I found that "the kind soul" happens to have exactly the same name as me! 😅 🙈
#ttrpg#worldbuiding tip: If you want to get some inspiration, get "The Dictionary of Imaginary Places" - a guidebook to fantastic locations from world literature. You'll be sure to find something interesting to put into your own settings!

The preamble to the Program called for establishment of a "home in #Palestine for the #Jewish people, secured under public law," thus leaving open the question of statehood but affirming that the result required international support
#Ephemera: When unfolded, this album commemorating the First #Zionist Congress (August 29-31, 1897), depicts the delegates.
Here, 162 of them. Figures vary, but 200-250 persons took part, including 17 #women—though they became voting members only in 1898
Interesting that this evidently American document featured portraits of not only the movement’s leaders—but also #Washington and Columbus. Trying to suggest an equivalence of nation-building—or just patriotic filler?
As far as I know, most #sociology journals don’t have a fediverse presence, but do have RSS article feeds. Would accounts that mirror those feeds be something folks would follow or is RSS/email already filling the need?
Also, I understand there is a #LawFedi account that follows a very large set of folks in the #law community and re-posts popular/trending material. (If you know what it is - I’d appreciate a pointer). Looking at that account might be a good way to catch up. Would that be interesting for social science?
I'm building a small list of resources for neurodivergent students for my big 1st year undergrad course. What would you recommend that a first year undergrad, who lives with OCD, ASD, ADHD and/or anything else, should read, watch or join.
Need assistance with Rocket chat. I have my rocket chat running in my internal network using cloudflare tunnels. I have a VPS configured as coturn. When I set my coturn info in Rocket chat, I still don't see an audio or video call option. Using call just starts a Jitsi call instead of using my coturn server for audio/video call in direct messages. Can someone assist and let me know what I am doing wrong? Thank you. @selfhosted@selfhosted@OpenSource@opensource
#Landschap | Voor op de verlanglijst, Dutch Landscape: https://www.nai010.com/nl/publicaties/dutch-landscape/246104 💧Het landschap van NL is vooral een project, een work in progress, dat voortdurend aanpassing en onderhoud vraagt – al is het maar omdat het anders onder water loopt
'Concerns about the decline of X as a source of reliable information extends beyond the scientific and academic communities. During the apparent coup attempt in Russia in June, journalists noticed its relative uselessness at helping them find real-time, breaking information from the ground and sifting fact from fakery, due in part to Musk’s trashing of its account verification system.'
Only a few more left! September 12th is fast approaching. What craziness is this! 'Final' polish is being applied, and 'final testing' also continues, but art is never done is it? You just stop, step away, and wonder.
Boy will I have some post mortems to write up about all this...

Rainy, cool, humid day today - gross. With on and off rain promised all weekend. Think I'll close the pool today. It isn't supposed to get out of the 70s (21.1C) in the entire 10 day, getting as low as 51 (10.56C) at one point! So it won't heat up enough to go back in anyway, so I'll save the electricity running the pump. Sad, really. Hardly got in at all this summer, esp. after I was told to stay out for 3 weeks due to the #CatBite. I'm the only regular user.
So I decided to save a few bucks and go with the Fitbit Inspire 3 instead of the Charge 5. It's only US$20 cheaper, but hey, it's something. The only big difference is no GPS in the Inspire but I never go anywhere without my phone so no big loss there. And @jeanettepizzurro said it was good enough for her, so that means it is good enough for me! Going to pick it up today. I feel so naked without it on my wrist! And does exercise really count if you don't measure it?
