#Mango tree progress: baby to sapling with baby

So this is what a baby mango looks like. My daughter insisted that we plant a mango from one of the store-bought ones.

@Alfred What is the difference between an "a priori" constructed language vs an "a posteriori" constructed language?

@Alfred How would you go about making an a priori constructed language?

My wife's father passed away today. Much sadness and shedding of tears.

I am a self-taught drummer with 20 years of experience. I did get lessons by the drummer of Cardia Arrest from Chicago. I was a member of five bands in three countries ranging from hard rock to deathcore. It was a wild ride. Not sure if I'll ever get back into since I gots kids and sold my acoustic kit, but perhaps getting an electronic kit will be a good compromise. Music has always been my lifeline in stressful times, and drumming was simply cathartic. #CoSoMusic

I truly enjoy metal bands that have a theme. Amon Amarth and Nile fall into this category. Another is Arsames, a truly underground death metal band from Mashhad, Iran. As the band name suggests, the theme is Ancient Persia. Here is "Xerxes" from the album Immortal Identity:

I just introduced my children (8 and 4) to Weird Al.

They can't get enough of him now.

@Alfred What do you know about Kajukenbo?

@Alfred

What do you know about Kajukenbo?

@Alfred What do you know about Kung Fu San Soo?

Here is an obscure, #funny video. Jimmy Slonina, a former Cirque du Soleil performer, lip syncs the song, "I'm a Nut," by Leroy Pullins.

I am part of a niche community where people create languages either from scratch [a.k.a. 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶] (see: Dothraki) or through theoretical evolution [a.k.a. 𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶] (e.g. what if Norman French had no influence on English). I will be presenting a piece during our biennial Language Creation Conference in April on how to naturalistically evolve a writing system. The conference is a two-day virtual event. I believe the live stream will be open to the public. #conlang #linguistics

My missus and I have arrived at the conclusion that her dad is in an irreversible decline of health. She will most likely need to travel to Germany by herself. If flights didn't cost as much as a used car, we would all go. It sucks.

@Alfred what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

I'm so happy I found this place. All I did was check that other place for two seconds and immediately I was bombarded with videos and tweets that riled me up. The minute I realized it I deactivated my account. I'm done. Glad to be home.

Leo Moracchioli (frog leap studios)

Look him up on YouTube if you haven't already. He is a multi-instrumentalist who produces amazing #metal covers and music videos of popular songs.

@DMArt55555 made me think of Leo with that post about Metallica.

Question for the security conscious:

I currently use Google Authenticator and I'm ready to jump ship to an alternative. What do you recommend? #MFA #2FA
