☕️ Going to the coffee shop today after six weeks of sanitary restrictions. Those were lifted recently, at long last. After setting up my MacBook Air, I open up AirDrop in the Finder to see who’s there. Naturally, I don’t know anyone from the list of available devices. It’s just for fun. Available devices vary a lot for each visit. Today was a great crop. 👨🏻💻😜
The pandemic gave me more time and opportunities to create, write and publish. I don’t want to lose these when it’s all over. My creativity-related activities helped me go through all of this.

😒 We’re approaching two years of this COVID-19 pandemic. We’re entering a phase where people no longer feel the need to care about COVID-19. I feel that way. I don’t care anymore. I don’t feel guilty about it. When I look at the news, more and more signs of people being fed up are popping up. Our collective energy is now directed at saying out loud how we’re tired of all this instead of making concessions about our liberties to fight some invisible virus.
👉🏻 If there is something that I have learned in recent months is this: the more you engage with a community, the better and the most rewarding it is. Most of the time. 👀

I like the idea of selectively cross-posting some of the posts here to Twitter or Ghost, but not that many. Each cross-posting is some sort of blips or advertisement on the web. People who pay attention or are simply curious in nature hitting the source link will be in for a treat. Unpublicized posts would act like bonus content for the reader to discover.

Time flies; I didn’t see the week. Where did it go? On the eves of the weekend, I’m thinking about possible subjects for participation in the Micro.camp conference, this coming March. The one topic that seems to stick as I’m writing this: coffee shops and creative work.

I’m still thinking about the possibility of subscribing to this service. I’m trying to find a specific use case for it. Even though I might not find one, I could consider my subscription as a vote for the service’s mission. It would be a sign of appreciation. Three dollars a month for five years is less than many of the much-less valuable services that I’m already subscribing to. Six days left for the promotion.
Here I am, on write.as. What am I doing here? Am I going to subscribe to this service? Do I really need it?
Micro.blog being linked with @Apple_Observer, Typefully being linked to Apple_Observer, write.as could be behind @NumericCitizen. I could use it for my Numeric Citizen Twitter account and cross-post to Ghost? It probably doesn’t matter much if there is no native application for Write.as.
I’m still thinking about it. Wishing for a final call before the end of the five-year subscription deal, ending this coming Feb.
I’m getting ready to pull the trigger on write.as. For a mere 3$ a month, it won’t be an expensive experience. I think I can do it without going bankrupt. 👨🏻💻
This is a long post for testing Cypress new theme. I don’t have a lot to say for a test post like this but I have to write a lot of text so I can get a better idea of the theme performance for dealing with it.
this is some quote text. Apple link
