Proof that announcing a book on the fediverse can also lead to sales... This is "Anatomical Oddities" by @Prof Alice Roberts . Just arrived today!
#AliceRoberts #AnatomicalOddities

So, I'm linked. Didn't find new people, but it may be useful for people who follow me on Twitter. That's hardly anybody, but if my brother joins the fediverse he can find me...

Part of the Twitter exodus? This tool is a bit clumsy but one way to cross-search for people you follow on Twitter who are also on here: twitodon.com

Chloë Grace Moretz interviewed by Wired based on autocomplete searches. Does she sing, play cello, speak foreign languages? Did Martin Scorsese think she's British? Short version in the quote-shared tweet, longer on YouTube.

Muay Thai, first-person shooter games, and vacation hotel room tattoos - @ChloeGMoretz is the kind of person we want to hang out with!

@Sean Tilley In case it is still relevant:

It is the admin setting Remote post retention days under instance:

then the prune_objects mix task as the pleroma user:

cd ~/pleroma/ && MIX_ENV=prod mix pleroma.database prune_objects

It seems I've scheduled this long ago and forgot about it by having the following in /etc/cron.d/pleroma:

SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

12 3 * * * pleroma { cd ~/pleroma && MIX_ENV=prod mix pleroma.database prune_objects && echo "Objects pruned" ; } 2>&1 | logger -t pleroma-cron

I mean the most breathtaking woman arrives at Paris Fashion Week and she's not even one of the models:

#JennaOrtega #ParisFashionWeek

Jenna Ortega is at a fashion show in Paris (Maison Valentino) and I've seen her look on Instagram on the fan accounts. It's an amazing look. I'm going to have to visit the stock photo sites again this evening...

These photos are by fashion photographer Genevieve Leah (instagram.com/p/CjOBgW7LxwR/) and make up artist Naoko Scintu (instagram.com/p/CjN2hHeMuxX/).

The haul of recent days.

For today's #JennaBirthweekRewatch I'm going to be a heretic and watch what I consider #JennaOrtega's best horror film: The Babysitter: Killer Queen. Not only is she one of the leads, the film also remains character-based whilst running from killers.

Two important dates coming up:

Tuesday 27 September,
Wednesday 23 November.

Spoiled for choice... What to play to celebrate Alizée's birthday?

Happy Birthday, Alizée!

Jenna Ortega is so amazing in this trailer, the details in the performance are exceptional. I've been singing her praises for a while and I feel so vindicated...

Mayhem, mystery and murder — this isn't your average Wednesday.

From the mind of Tim Burton, comes @wednesdayaddams. Premiering this fall

Miranda Cosgrove posted this photo on her Instagram, with the caption:

So excited to announce that we are starting Season 3 of @icarly! Can’t wait to get back to work with my people ❤️ Thanks for watching 💕

So yay, new iCarly! And great photo!

I'm trying the #Hinge dating app. I'm at setting up my profile and uploaded 6 photos. Now it only gives me this screen, can't go back or forward. I've tapped everywhere. Already tried closing the app and restarting. The purple button is to skip and gives a warning that your profile won't work if you do that.

Now what? Anybody knows how this screen works?

X is out on blu-ray in Europe! I saw this film in the cinema and it was amazing.

It's getting to be quite a collection...

Happy 6th wedding anniversary Alizée and Gregoire!

I love how happy she looks.

People in the UK are in luck, a documentary series presented by her starts on Channel 4 tomorrow. This channel is blocked outside the UK, but apparently us in the rest of the world get this documentary series later this year. It's about the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb and the curse-myth that followed.

I think Ella Al-Shamahi is the real-life Indiana Jones. The below photo is not really an illustration of that fact, just an interesting picture of her, though I did think of captioning it "Real-life Indiana Jones and the Dinosaur".

The photo shows Ella in Cambodia with a bird that is more than half her size (and she's not short) playfully biting her finger. The bird is a Great Hornbill.

Using the #Hyperspace frontend on Friendica looks reasonably ok. The notification screen even makes more sense, showing only actual notifications (instead of Friendica's 'someone you don't follow replied to another post in the thread than the one you favourited').

However, they don't seem to know all notification types, so when an rss post comes in you get this notification:

Just some things today on my computer...

It has been 0% for hours now, I'm ignoring it.

Now playing a CD virtually nobody has, not even Tidal or Spotify have it: Alex Parks with "Honesty", from 2005. I have no idea why everybody has forgotten about her, she's so good.

This is her second album. Her first did reasonably well, she was also known from tv in the UK, but this second slipped everyone by.

I have imported 'The Thread'.

Linking it here because my server is still recovering from the shock and fails to bookmark it.
