My first time ever seeing American White Pelikans in Puget Sound. Serious birders with nice cameras and ginormous lenses were out taking better photos than I can. They found out on Facebook (which I don't do). I stumbled upon them organically. Free range. That counts for something. So I share with my Mastodon friends. #pugetsound #pnw #birdwatching #seattle

Gas prices today (May 12 2026) in Seattle are nowhere near the so-called average price the media reports for here. Glad I took transit.

@ellane I'm mom of a college student and longtime classroom volunteer. Young adults and kids flop when they see cursive and think it's cool to push back. When I say its just a different font and I've seen them play with fonts for hours instead of working on homework, they say "Oh. Yeah" and suddenly can read it. They've seen many cursive and decorative fonts.

Pizza! An charming article about pizza from the October 1949 issue of The Atlantic thanks to gift article bot @GiftArticles@tomkahe.com

“In a world of ready-made food, packaged to be tossed together by amateurs, pizza stands apart—one dish, at least, which calls for time and skill.”

With a photo of a pizza I made last Sunday in my Ooni pizza oven that I love so much

@ellane that's a good way to think of it. Your handwriting is lovely BTW. Readable yet filled with style and uniqueness.

@anon_opin@mastodon.social I think they are lovely. These are in Ellensburg Washington state USA. They are quiet and line up along the ridge like dancers

@attoparsec So cool! Is this in a public place? I had no idea there had been so many downtown. Would like to look more closely.

@indi I find warm water helps alot when flushing and soaking. Applies to converters as well as nibs. Also do you have access to an ultrasonic cleaner? One of those small ones for cleaning eyeglasses and some types of jewelry. Then flush again to get dried bits of ink out. I am cleaning a friend's Pilot FP now that has been sitting with ink in it for a long time. Am about to fill it and have fingers crossed. These steps have worked in the past but I never know on any one pen.
