mastodon 4.5.7

I write science fiction and fantasy stories.

I speak Esperanto, and use it to communicate internationally. Esperantistoj, legu mian esperantan hejmpaĝon.

For a while I taught Taiji.

For eleven years I was a senior writer at Wise Bread, writing about personal finance and frugality.

Before that I spent a quarter-century as a software engineer.

I baked a loaf of bread with wheat, oats, rye, AND barley (the things I had been told I couldn't eat when I was a boy): https://www.philipbrewer.net/2026/03/07/bread-with-all-the-gluten/

"And there we were," the colonel said to a small crowd at the bar, "Benighted on the road—"

"Not so much benighted as #befogged," the lieutenant put in.

A number of quizzical voices from the crowd prompted him to continue. "I mean, we spent the night in a very nice inn. We paid the innkeeper extra to get up early, fix us a proper breakfast and have our horses ready for departure before dawn. Then, almost as soon as we left, a thick fog rolled in."

@cstross@wandering.shop @stevendbrewer@wandering.shop Living in a college town with a lot of fraternities (and a lot of moronic frat boys), there's a steady stream of people showing up at the emergency room with alcohol poisoning. I haven't heard much about people showing up with capsaicin poisoning, but I don't doubt that there are some.
