And so we spin-off a new Linkblog.
I’m launching a new linkblog, named Link Punk, which is primarily for articles and blog posts I find interesting and that I want to share, but that I don’t really have any commentary of my own to contribute.  It’s just a link to an article or blog post, which is different from the directory here […]

Going through a car wash, when the “Tri-Foam Spray” sign lights up, I always yell, “Tri-Foam Spray! Tri-Foam Spray!”
Cos it’s a Rule.

Mojeek search engine has 88×31 buttons
My favorite search engine www.mojeek.com has created a bunch of 88×31 buttons. If you collect buttons on your website button wall and want something unusual here they are: Retro buttons: circa mid-2000’s to the early teens. Based on old Mojeek logos from those times. Current buttons:  based on the current logo. I recommend it for […]

So far, the hardest part of starting a new blog on Micro.blog is selecting a theme. There are so many good themes it was hard to choose. The problem is with me making a choice. I’m glad they are all there.

I just upgraded from regular Microblg to Microblog Premium and, no fooling, it has to be the easiest thing I’ve ever done online. Zero friction. Other online service companies should take note. More blogs on the way.

I just saw this: in France, a vending machine for guitar strings in a train station. I don’t think you would ever see this in the USA, because we go for for fast sales of high demand stuff that will kill you like candy, chips and in my youth, cigarettes. No place for music and arts.

Fair warning, XTwitter is on borrowed time with me. I can no longer follow or unfollow people for the last few months and it’s like Russian roulette if other account settings will work and I don’t know why. I can still post, read and comment but it seems like many people that I follow have quit posting or post less.
What a world, what a world.

Kids and teens can’t wait to grow up and be adults. They think it’s gonna be cool. Well, I just bought three bags of rocks. Read: gravel. Not fancy gravel, but lowly “general purpose” gravel (cheapest) because I have to fill a hole washed out by the sump pump. Adulting is not about cars, sex and booze, it’s about paying your hard earned money out to buy bags of fecking rocks. Plus sales tax. They tax rocks.
You’re welcome.

I have totally lost the plot as to when somebodies reply to my post gets added to the post page on my microblog and when it doesn’t and who is talking to whom. Indieweb webmentions et al, plus Fediverse plus native MB timeline (or is it Fediverse masquerading as MB timeline?)

Review Vito and Nicks II Frozen Pizzas
Friday is officially Frozen Pizza Friday (FPF) around here. Something I started during pandemic lockdown.
I’ve bought various pizza brands for FPF over the years and my recent discovery of Vito and Nicks II Frozen Pizza is worth noting.
Three things I really like about Vito and Nick’s:
The Sauce: a) the sauce has flavor like pizza sauce should. It’s not bland like so many frozen pizza sauces are and it has that Chicago style taste. b) There is plenty of it. I’d say there is 4 times more sauce than the other pizzas I’ve tried. It bubbles up from under the cheese when you bite a slice.
The Thin Crust: So many frozen pizzas are all crust (and not so much toppings) and I don’t want to fill up on crust which I kinda have a hard time digesting.
Generous toppings: Toppings and sauce are where to action is at, and the meat and cheese is pretty generous for a frozen pizza.
Yes Vito and Nick’s frozen pizza is more expensive than some other brands but so far I’m finding it worth the price. So far I’ve tried the Sausage and the Sausage and Pepperoni pizzas and both were good. Here locally in NW Indiana I���ve found them at Jewel and Strack and Van Til’s grocery stores. Worth trying.

I still miss the White Castle that closed in Chesterton, Indiana. It wasn’t much but it was handy for Slider Emergencies. All the others are too far away.
