"Why are they here?" the king said. "I didn't invite any fairies to our daughter's christening!"
"Hush, dear," the queen said, "I did."
"I give the gift of compassion," the first fairy said.
"I give democratic ideals," the second said.
"I give revolutionary zeal," said the third.
there, wrote some code for pending replies so that when you have a reply waiting for your approval, it gives you a nice little note about it, and lets you know you can implicitly accept it by interacting back
this will make things a bit easier for people using client apps that don't yet support interaction policies (ie., every single client app currently); this way folks can at least approve interaction requests without leaving their app of choice

I decided to write a side idea I had for the Stellarobo fic--namely a series of mini-stories to show off the Shepherd Republic from Milla's point of view--to try and get my motivation back after the data loss, but trying to set the scene produced content that seemed more suited to the main story with its gravity. Whoops! :'D
Oh well, I can try again at the side story tomorrow now that I gave myself context
@firn @researchfairy I've also heard people proclaim the benefits of abstinence-only driver's ed
The myth of "consensual" AI use

hey it's me! Folks found my document about why I'm not updating my long-running NLP project, "wordfreq", and appreciate the reasons.
hey so just to let people in the US know, if you are on SSI and have a disability that began before age 26 (46 as of 1st Jan 2026) you can apply for an ABLE account. this account will let you have up to $100,000 without losing your SSI.
Edit: per @MindmeshLink the requirements are SSI, SSDI, *or* a Doctors Note, if that helps!
