@calculsoberic Not rare per se, but I'm a sucker for 100+ year-old books. I've been building a small collection since finding out about a national archive center near my usual summer haunt that sells extra or damaged donations for cheap. My favorite is a 1914 prayer book that was gifted in 1918 by seminary students to their teacher, followed by a 1927 political booklet on the place French Canadians have in the Canadian Confederation

@mcc Reminds me of an old Soviet joke about an old man getting paperwork filled by an official. Where was he born? "Saint-Petersburg," he replied. Where did he go to school? "Petrograd. " Where did he live now? "Leningrad." And where would he like to live in the future? "Saint-Petersburg."

@ajroach42 The movie podcast Kill James Bond ran into this more broadly, where if for some unexplainable reason everyone forgot what year 9/11 happened, future historians could take a pretty damn accurate guess based on when it became unacceptable in american films to criticize cops and the military

@aral Also I'm pretty sure the Geneva Conventions' stance on killing unarmed children is "what? No, absolutely not", not "don't, unless someone else forfeits the child's rights by existing near them"

I realized recently that1. I'm about to install a little library in front of my house, and2. I have a laser printer, which means my cost to print simple black and white booklets basically rounds down to 0$So, uh, any interesting free-to-print (ideally black and white) #zines out there that would be interesting to share with the general public? Especially those related to #solarpunk, community, #anarchism, #environmentalism and similar subjects. Bonus points if they're in French

@futurebird I usually keep corrections to myself because I don't trust myself to not cross the line and become That Guy, but I *have* to vote for "golden ratio" because of its close cousin, "overlaying a golden spiral over a random image and pretending it explains the composition"

A week ago @comemartin had a silly idea for a Pope-themed game jam, and after a day of throwing out wild ideas and puns with friends on Discord, one title stuck with me so hard I had to make it a reality. I'm not sorry. https://bujold.itch.io/papatouille#ttrpg #gamejam

Version en Anglais seulement pour l'instant parce que mes inspirations étaient en anglais donc j'ai succombé à ma mauvaise habitude de travailler en Anglais, mais j'ai 100% l'intention de le traduire en Français et d'en imprimer pour mettre dans la boite à livres devant chez moi
