I like asking questions and changing my mind tech, astrology, art, design, and everything in between 🇨🇴 castid.app

This is a Roman calendar (a parapegma) that marked the date with three wooden pegs. One peg was placed over one of the seven gods representing the days of the week (starting with Saturn for Saturday). Another peg was placed over a zodiac sign for the month, and the third over the day number.

Ancient Roman peg calendar (parapegma). Found in Rome. 3rd to 4th centuries CE.

as i’ve stated many times, we need stronger regulation of data centers, especially around environmental/community impacts — there’s no reason new data centers can’t run on renewables, respect communities, & be a net-positive you don’t have to engage in conspiracy theories and pseudo-science!

LibreOffice is free! Ellipsus is free! Scrivener isn't but it's pretty cheap and it's damn good. hell, use @leaflet.pub and keep your work saved as drafts, that's free too!

claude arriving at a breakthrough with simply being told to “keep going” and “believe in yourself” so it could overcome a block after some 600+ failures aligns with my hypothesis (that i should explain with more words) that love is power

this thread! imagine being a student of the history of ancient mathematics & ppl think ur a fool. the 1st analog computer was for astrology. the 1st algorithms also came from astrology. astrology is the mother root of so many thankless fields. it doesn’t require belief, but it does reveal ignorance

Unfollowed a really benign, lovely person that I’ve followed for a long time yesterday, because she casually started a comment with “astrology isn’t real, but.” Astrology is an actual academic field and applied practice that people actually study and work in.

the leo pile up of Jupiter/mercury/moon with the sun on my ascendant, all in the 10th of both my annual and monthly revolutions, and im out here doing some public navel gazing to come back to life lmao god I love astrology

sometimes i forget that I have some “big dick energy” aka my angular, fixed near exact Jupiter Mars square. Jupiter’s in a stellium with my chart lord, enjoys a near exact sextile with a cancer Moon, and there’s a domicile Saturn ruling that Mars. need to stop forgetting that i am not a soft baby!
