#introductions

Hey there! I'm Somnius, a white tiger living in SF. I code websites, play indie & rhythm games, love all kinds of music, and turned vegan in the middle of this year.

Things I advocate for: furries, non-monogamy, sex positivity, gender identity, LGBT+ rights, democratic socialism.

All of you here inspire me so much with the amazing things you create. I have so much to learn!

Welcome to the Fediverse and happy birthday to my lovely fiancé @DangerCat! 🐱🎉

#theWorkshop #wip

Work on the sigil is progressing! Made a few adjustments and added a couple more symbols. Two more left to go.

I'll explain what all those symbols are and what this means to me once I'm all done. :3

Aaaaa glad to see you on the fediverse, @JuLaLo! 🎉

Firm tofu fried in vegetable oil with soy sauce, with frozen veggies also fried in vegetable oil. Pretty quick, but pretty tasty! #theGalley

Redrafted for hashtag functionality >w>

#theGalley Spent half an hour finding the correct setting on the grinder after shimming it, and it was well worth it! Got some nice contrast and striping in my espresso shot :D

I see that in the Mastodon installation guide, iptables for IPv4 are outlined, but I don't see any for IPv6. Has anyone set these up? I used a super basic iptables v6 file for our firewall on https://merveilles.town, but I'm not quite sure how to port the iptables for IPv4 over to IPv6, or if I even should in the first place. Anyone know more about this? #MastoAdmin

Oh whoops, hashtags don't work in CWs, I had no idea!

@masanbol Happy birthday! :D

Whoa this is a really cool timepiece! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cwandt/time-since-launch

Never grown my hair quite this long before, but I'm liking it so far! :3

#theWorkshop #wip

I'm making a sigil that represents myself, using symbols that represent the 9 characters that stand in for different parts of me. Got 4 down, have 5 more to go!

Tried it when I got home and it was pretty good! Kinda liquidy compared to what I remember of dairy yogurt, but tasted pretty similar nonetheless. Was really good with dark chocolate chips in it :D

Look what I found!!!! Non-dairy yogurt made with cultured cashew milk sounds really good. Kinda excited to try this, I'll let y'all know what I think when I get home :3

Troubling trend: I'm noticing that I fixate pretty strongly on minor health issues and perceived slights in my physical appearance as I get older.

Growing up in my parents' home, I used to fixate like that with whatever issue was causing family stress.

I wonder if I'm still looking for issues to fixate on long after I've been removed from that stressful situation. If I am, I need to learn how to relax before I become completely insufferable. 😫

I've had an espresso machine for almost three years now and I'm loving it every day, but espresso requires so much precision.

For example, here, I'm not getting the right grind fineness and the almond milk I used for my latte didn't quite foam correctly. I'm going to have to shim my grinder again and perhaps try the barista soy milk from the store down the street—but it still tastes pretty powerful and delicious. ☕️
