One of the things I really appreciate about #bluesky is the ability to self moderate and control what shows up on my feed.

Its what I think makes this platform a really nice alternative to platforms where the feed is controlled programmatically or by add revenue 'clicks'.

Today, I went to the first Folkemoot event in the Kingdom of Meridies. A day of order meetings and administrative stuff with socializing in between. Was a good experience. I’ll put some words down later. #mysca. #meridies

Some things never change!

A 2,000 year-old Roman souvenir pen with a joke inscription roughly equivalent to:

“I went to Rome and all I got you was this cheap pen!" 😂

Dated to about 70 AD, this iron stylus pen was found in London during excavations by MOLA. 📷 MOLA

This week’s object is a Roman brooch in the rare form of a lion, which would have been brightly coloured with enamel, of which blue traces survive. A fastening spring and pin is hidden behind the plate.

The brooch is dated to the later Roman period, AD200-300.

Here's a list based feed I made to help with finding Society for Creative Anachronism content. I try to add groups and other org level entities to it as I find them. If you are a group or guild or other type of entity in the SCA, let me know and Ill get you added. #mysca

That feeling you get when you wake up to get ready for a day trip event and your body says, ‘Hey, don’t do it. I might make you regret it’. Damn.
