Boosted: Yay! My #Plushtodon from #Mastodon was delivered today! I was not expecting it until after #Christmas 🎄, but I am glad that @Mastodon was able to expedite deliveries for those of us in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸. Thanks @Gargron! Hmm…now I need to figure out what to name it‽ Mister Masto‽ Super Masto‽ Nasty Masty‽ 😂 I will not use the latter, lest folks think I won this from a Dirty Santa 🎅🏾 game! 🤣🤪

Replied to: Does anyone know an HTML template language that is terser than HTML? I find it so ridiculous that I have to close tags with their names when, in most cases, it's pretty obvious from context what to close. Apparently SGML allowed one to write to close the last opened tag, but I don't think HTML allows this.

One of them is our Extremely Large Telescope, currently under construction in #Chile. It will have a 39 m mirror, and its rotating enclosure will weigh 6100 tonnes, or about 700 mastodons!
