  • I’ve tried to get into Tasks.org a few times, and I really like just about everything about it, but the deal breaker for me is that is seems like it doesn’t have any collaboration features - can anyone tell me otherwise?

    My partner and I have been making really good use of Todoist and its (admittedly limited) collaboration features - we have a ‘household’ project, and anything on that list is visible to both of us and can be assigned to a person.

    I’d really love to get on a proper FOSS solution, but so far many of them are missing collaboration. Vikunja is really cool and has collaboration, but doesn’t have any widgets atm (important for my scatter-brain). Still on the hunt!




  • Days of War, Nights of Love, by the Crimethinc Ex-Workers Collective.

    I’m not gonna pretend I’m now some completely freegan anarchist living on the fringes of society or anything like that, but this book really opened my eyes up to what it means to live and the weight of making (or not making, more often) choices about how you live your life.

    It was also the kick in the teeth I really needed at the time to finally break free from the (imo rather oppressive) religious structure I had grown up in. I think it would have happened eventually anyways, but it really did a great job of making for a good clean break, in a way where I really feel no lingering regret about it whatsoever (again, choosing how to live), other than maybe wishing it had happened sooner.

    I just really wish I had kept in touch with the person that gave me the book in the first place.


  • Wonderful! Great modern addition to the classic series.

    Played through on the Switch (on a boat in the Caribbean, no less!), and I really enjoyed this game. Keeps things pretty true to the originals, but with some really nice QoL changes that made for a great controller experience. Curious to see how it works on a touch screen.

    I also grew to really love the art style. As a die-hard 1&2 fan, I of course would have loved to have seen a new game in that style, but every game in the series since then has had it’s own new style, for better or for worse, and I really think this one looks great and works so well for the story they are telling. Some really great stuff and lots of awesome throwbacks to the originals along the way.

    Also ten bucks is a great price compared to all the other platforms! (don’t take Guybrush’s advice too seriously on that topic :P)
