I'm so pleased that Scott Alexander brought back his blog, Slate Star Codex! Now it's on Substack, which is a platform to keep an eye on.
A new episode of the #audiobook #podcast I narrate, UNSONG. "Ars Longa, Vita Brevis" "The Alchemist asked if I wanted a drink. I did, but no amount of staring could make my eyes settle on the color of the liquid in the flask. And the gold the alchemists paid the taxmen smelled funny and made crackling noises. I declined." This is a short story narrated by Matt Arnold with the permission of the author, Scott Alexander. The original text is here: https://slatestarcodex.com/2017/11/09/ars-longa ... https://unsong.libsyn.com/ars-longa-vita-brevis

Because I am getting too many strange signups in the last 24 hours and most people don't read the Terms of Service, I added a Temporary Notice to Masto.host Pricing page: https://masto.host/pricing/
"If you are looking for an alternative to Parler, this is not it. Please look elsewhere. Thanks."
I hope that's clear enough :)
