Today’s cultural quickie ™️ to San Lorenzo and Verano and it was a truly glorious morning. pesos

Finally got round to @DanSaladinoUK Food Programme about Charles Campion, and what a treat it was. So well put together, and a great picture of the man himself. He will be missed. Thanks Dan.

Peter Rukavina asks: “What category of Judaism would you self-identify with?”

And I can think only of Jonathan Miller’s “Jew … ish”, which appears to be a line from the original Beyond the Fringe.

Researchers from many disciplines argue that science would get far more bang for its research buck by looking to solve broader societal contributors to disparities. Housing conditions, segregated neighborhoods, poverty, education, the burden of racism, environmental pollutants, and other factors are likely the main contributors to higher rates of disease and disability in marginalized groups. “We support wholeheartedly the study of health disparities from a wide range of disciplines,” says Michael Yudell, professor of community health and prevention at Drexel University. “Our issue is that race is a poor proxy to understand the biological factors underpinning health disparities.”

@simonw I’m so conflicted. I want to like that you were recognised, but not the people who recognised you.

So many fine diagrams of how to make a martyr. First visit since the restoration, and it is glorious. pesos

@raymondcamden Are you actually displaying the webmentions anywhere? I looked at your site and couldn’t see any, so it is hard to know how to proceed. You might get more help at chat.indieweb.org/dev/2021-…

@OwenAdamsYT1 If you are talking about the list at indieweb.org/site-deat… it does specifically refer to “content hosting sites” not the individual sites I think you are lamenting. No-one could keep track of all of those, although there is archive.org in a pinch.

Thanks for the link to the video. I’ve done a few workflows and, like Ton, had some difficulty really understanding how they work, so I am going to find time for this. I don’t think Automators.fm has ever done an episode on Alfred; I wish they would.

Today, I will mostly be baking light rye sourdough with caraway seeds. pesos
