Twitter weirdness. Ability to follow links seems to have changed. In Safari, with mu-block, I can click on a link shared directly by someone, but not on a link in a retweet. Is this a change in behaviour, or something I simply never noticed before? Or both.

Far and away the weirdest nagware I've ever seen. A website distributing PDFs of academic papers requires me to wait 120 seconds until I can download, but the clock ticks only while I am on that site. I can't go and do anything else. Of course, I can also "donate".

Terrific. FB Just banned a friend's link to my latest podcast episode (Brown v. White; Our Daily Bread 23). Twice, for reasons unspoken that I can only imagine. They did not ban my link to the same post.

After enjoying a lovely day off yesterday, I've been paying for it today. Haven’t been away from the desk for more than about half an hour at a time. Mind you, most of that was to make a bread, and now that I’m done, I think I’ll go for a walk while the microbes do their thing.

I'm going to be exploring the history of wheat and bread every day in August.
