Which is the best Lufthansa livery of all times? I like one, and @ericlang.bsky.social also likes one.

What liveries do you like? Any vehicle! Any livery!

sitelen Kuwi is a super interesting writing system (designed by instagram.com/clockwise.languages)!

It presents information quite differently than Sitelen Pona (designed by me) and Sitelen Suwi (designed by Jonathan Gabel).

The Guosa community is making waves again!

It's an honour to have been able to collaborate with the Evolutionist, Alex G Ìgbìnéwéká, on the ranaseme.org friendship & alliance.

Conlangs in the West can learn a lot from Guosa's success.

Bon voyage! I just placed an order for a Pebble Time 2. I look forward to showing and promoting it across the ecosystem of Toki Pona communities I have founded. We have great overlaps between the important members in both Pebble and Toki Pona communities! 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽 💪

Any advice on how to produce or format enjoyable YouTube Shorts? I published my first one today on my personal YT account. I mostly use YT for my own record keeping of life moment.

This song on vinyl below is not it. Just the mood.

Many, many community servers exist for Toki Pona and all allies in the peace agreements of su (sunosama.org).

There's never a "final" server or "final" community or any "supremacy".

Little or small, veteran or newcomer, Toki Pona or Guosa, we're all mutually uplifting each other. No one's cut off.

I'm personally accessible & active in many places! Many people opt-in and opt-out of various servers. There is no single "one human being" or "one clique" who's the "owner" of our various allied clongospheres. We're all interconnected servants in places owned by Something much bigger than any of us.

Riveting film. So real!
I love the martial arts teacher and the abbess.
Great intergenerational moments.
Great soundtrack.
I don't want to say too much.

A beast related to breaking, harming or damage is on eway to interpret "vermin". Such a beast is elevated or "supreme". soweli pakala sewi

Another way would be to interpret "vermin" as "jaki", simply disgustingness, ah, but "sacred" filth: jaki sewi.
