71: Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott – Bookworm
For many writers, few things are as intimidating as staring at a blank page - but it doesn't have to be this way. If you're looking for some solid writing...
Another chance to get inspiration and then fail to implement it.
"20+ Mac Productivity Hacks from CEOs, Artists, Developers, Youtubers and More" by @linuz90
From obscure keyboard shortcuts to crazy workflows.
The most common @discourse question I get is about how to self-host it.
Go to @digitalocean and set up a $5 droplet: https://buff.ly/2XiYCPo
Then follow the instructions on the @discourse repo: https://buff.ly/2RMOFnn
That's it.
In other words, don't buy these. But if you must, tolerate these ones.

My expectations are extremely high for this one. 😉 https://twitter.com/macstockexpo/status/1139980742799351809
The last year has been quite a journey. And I’m thrilled to say I’m starting to get some relief thanks to alternative medicine and Stephen Buhner’s book. Highly recommended if you’re fighting Lyme.
I especially appreciate the argument for long-form writing here. This may be why I gravitate towards books over articles in recent years.

I keep seeing articles about people moving away from TextExpander to Alfred or some other system. It doesn't add up to me. @TextExpander is just way better at it than anyone else.
They really are confusing.

My @bookwormfm sweatshirt is easily my favorite. Just soooo comfy. Well done on these, @cottonbureau. 👏 https://twitter.com/bookwormfm/status/1144910382579847168
Anybody have first-hand experience with one of these? I'm still on an old-school trifold. My biggest need is two cash slots.

My biggest question is: how does this compare to @ProtonVPN?
"Introducing Guardian Firewall for iOS" by @guardianiosapp (HT: @daringfireball)
"A shy man no doubt dreads the notice of strangers, but can hardly be said to be afraid of them. He may be as bold as a hero in battle, and yet have no self-confidence about trifles in the presence of strangers." - Charles Darwin
Started a new book last night. Maybe I’ll be a little more tolerable when I’m done with this one. 🐷

I have got to stop looking at these. 🤦
“What Is EDC?: The Beginner's Guide to Everyday Carry” by @bernardcapulong
Everyday Carry is a blanket term to describe items you carry with you at all times. But what exactly are EDC essentials and how can they help you?
Another reason I'm considering a move to @ProtonMail:
I've been using @ProtonVPN for about four months now and loving the service. And I get the feeling I can trust them with my data, which is more than I can say for most others.
I STILL don't own a Pi in any form. It's likely time I change that. But my sense is that I should have a legitimate purpose for it before I buy in. Thus, I'll keep collecting bad ideas. https://twitter.com/Raspberry_Pi/status/1143036104314118144
Perfect timing for the summer.
"Ernest Hemingway's Advice on Camping Out" by @artofmanliness
Editor’s note: Throughout Ernest Hemingway’s life, he maintained a love for the outdoors and for outdoor pursuits. This love was inculcated early, as his father took him into the woods...
These two always do a stellar job. https://twitter.com/nathansnelgrove/status/1143536724171206656
