While setting up this capsule, it struck me that gemtext is particularly well suited to writing a link log--the old-fashioned kind, with a short paragraph or quote introducing each batch of links. I've been doing that sort of thing on the web for 20 years, so I might as well carry on here in Geminispace.
> Lagrange is a desktop GUI client for browsing Geminispace. It offers modern conveniences familiar from web browsers, such as smooth scrolling, inline image viewing, multiple tabs, visual themes, Unicode fonts, bookmarks, history, and page outlines.
A joy to use. Thanks to its subscription features, I've been treating Lagrange as a Gopher & Gemini companion to NetNewsWire (and thinking of it as the spiritual successor to TurboGopher!).

Once I'd decided to set up a gemlog, I tried oodles of Gemini-related software--tools that let you convert Markdown to Gemtext and vice versa, gemlog generators, &c.--but this (plus a vim syntax plugin) is the only thing that stuck. It lets you make sure you haven't made any terrible mistakes before publishing your capsule, without the bother of setting up a server locally.
The latest sub-sub-sub-genre in electronic music for nightclubs. An offshoot of the mountaineering-inspires, tomtom-heavy Gorge from Japan. Wild percussion, heavily processed samples, shades of juke, ballroom and Jersey club. Fun!
Andrew Hickey's deep dive into the history of rock 'n' roll (and blues, jazz, doowop, soul, R&B, pop, &c.) is an astonishing piece of work--each podcast episode is accompanied by a full transcript, exhaustive biblopgraphy and a playlist of every song mentioned.
