Hey fedi friends! I've been loving Momodou @Saikoubarry 's toots on here about his trees and life in his village, but recently his area was hit by a flood like they'd never seen before. It literally carried off the roof of his house! https://mastodon.xyz/@Saikoubarry/106548104657732650 (Image description: A round one-storey house with the roof torn off, the support struts left bare, with supplies and items surrounding it.)
Georg @gcrkrause has been raising money to help Momodou's family repair the flood damage, and plans to send the funds in a couple of days (and will provide the receipt, of course). If you'd also like to chip in to help Momodou out please contact Georg for his PayPal! It was my birthday last month so also consider it a birthday gift to me?

The best way to sum up Tolkien's influence on fantasy literature as a whole was, of course, written by Terry Pratchett:
“J.R.R. Tolkien has become a sort of mountain, appearing in all subsequent fantasy in the way that Mt. Fuji appears so often in Japanese prints. Sometimes it’s big and up close. Sometimes it’s a shape on the horizon. Sometimes it’s not there at all, which means that the artist either has made a deliberate decision against the mountain, which is interesting in itself, or is in fact standing on Mt. Fuji.”

Hearing tech, guide to getting started, illustrated comic
I drew up a basic comic guide to getting started with the tympan audio processor as an assistive device. Plan to spend around $350+ including mounting stuff and headphones.
Apologies for the lack of full transcriptions, I'm kinda tired. Please let me know if you need them for personal use, though, and I can type them up for ya.

"While there are big differences between Italian fascism, British colonialism and pro-slavery groups in the US, all have contributed to a fantasy idea about Rome’s whiteness that’s still a feature of Western civilisation...
"As white supremacists storm the centres of Western governance, this is not just a niche issue. It could play a vital role in strengthening our democracies."
