  And to this day I am glad you found that coffee and worked on Webmention - I'm enjoying it in so many ways. If only I'd have known you were doing this in 2016 - I'd have loved to have contributed - thanks for all the hard work!
  

  haha thanks!

  Is anyone up for convincing me that the HTTP accept header is a good idea?

  I understand the theory: every resource should have the same URI, and should be able to deliver to clients in the format that they indicate they can best handle - eg an image served as WEBP to supporting clients but falling back to JPEG

  But we have 20+ years of real-world experience with it now, and I'm not at all convinced that those theoretical benefits outweigh the drawbacks: mainly its lack of discoverability
  

  It's not just you!

  At least soaking my fingers for 15 minutes per hand gives me an excuse to catch up on some videos

  So when I was a kid, we had HBO, and we had a VCR, and my dad diligently recorded what appeared to me to be every single movie playing on HBO until our entire hall closet was a movie library full of VHS tapes. It only occurs to me now to ask, was that normal?
  

  I knew someone who did this too! I remember the many bookshelves of VHS tapes in his home office, looked king of like library shelves

  @aaronpk Gak, yeah, it's why I stopped doing gel because not only does it wreck your nails but is so time consuming
  

  I first thought I'd let them just grow out naturally but then a month later they were starting to look messy and only 1/3 grown out and didn't want two more months of this.

  @aaronpk hah we might have the same wiring. "If my hands are available I need to be working on something" 😄
  

  oh it's bad. I refuse to leave the house unless I have *two* reasons. I will not go to only one grocery store. It has to be at least grocery store and take out the trash.
