I'm glad to see a few #indieweb people building on OPML. There's a lot you can do with it. For example, the native file format of LO2 is OPML. So it's really good for editing subscription lists for feed readers. And editing blogrolls. My listicle tool takes OPML files as input. And River6, coming soon, does a bunch with OPML. There's also feedBase which will blow your mind if you love sharing subscription lists. Yes there's a lot to discover in OPML-land and more on the way. 💥#
I should write a howto to explain editing subscription lists in LO2. I wrote one for the OPML Editor in 2008. It still runs btw, I use it, sometimes even to edit subscription lists. Two key bits for LO2: 1. You can make outlines public. Look in the File menu. 2. And you can edit the attributes of a headline, click the suitcase icon in the left margin. #
AOC: "'Never again' means something." She is what we want politicians to be. Not calculating about how to get re-elected, rather guiding our country and preserving our values. Being smart. Not being scared to say what's obvious.#
Tomorrow is the NBA Draft and the deals are flying. It should be amazing. After yet another Knickless playoff season, it's interesting to see them back in the conversation somewhat. There were a lot of stupid dreams about the Knicks buying a contending team with their cap space. That's off the table because even Kawhi couldn't turn this team into a contender. The Knicks are in a rebuild, have been for many seasons, and no amount of dealing is going to make them a contender. Even the 76ers and Celtics who played it smart aren't contending yet. But at least they give their fans something to root for. The Celtics should be glad to be rid of Kyrie. Last year's team was much more interesting. Re-sign Horford and trade Hayward for draft picks. The most intriguing idea I heard for the Knicks is to pick up Chris Paul on waivers (haha not going to happen) or take on his awful 3-year deal, and get them to throw in Capela, say. In return they get a few mediocre young players that didn't work out (pretty much anyone on the current roster). And then what the hell, sign Melo and let him play out his career in the Garden. It's not like anything else is going to happen here for the forseeable future. Sign Jeremy Lin (he can bring his new trophy) and D'Angelo Russell, and we might even make the postseason. It'll certainly be entertaining basketball. 🏀#
The best movie ever, one that I always forget to put on my list, is Groundhog Day. So entertaining, well-done, a love story, a story of redemption, a prequel for Bill Murray's long career, and a wonderful Frank Capra-like ending. A perfect movie. #
I love smoothies. Frozen berries, a half a banana and a tiny bit of yogurt, cover with tap water. Zap in a blender. Voila, deliciousness, a cool summer drink, a happy tummy. #
There is an dimension other than electability and policy for a Democratic presidential candidate -- will the candidate further division in the country, or help bring the country together. #
