My people are like this:

You played hooky from school so you could hide under your favorite spruce tree and read books under the branches.

Despite all the chastisement, yelling, threats, and punishments, you refused to ever reveal your secret hiding tree. You would not ever let anyone take that refuge from you. They had their libraries. You had your hidey-hole.

When the principal gave you detention you played hooky from detention to read another book under the tree. You got extra weekends of detention for that and for refusing to tell the adults where you were at.

No reading was allowed during detention. You knew that was evil horse pucky!

If this make sense to you boost and follow.

Glad to meet you on mastodon. I run the gamerplus.org server, a small indie server focusing on music, gaming, and free culture.

I also write code and have a podcast on Hacker Public Radio.

Nice cat. You caught the blue eyes with just the right amount of laser vision.

How about a link to that podcast? If it has a RSS feed so much the better.

Thanks for the link. I see you're not far from the home of Iris DeMent. She's a treasure.

Any southerner with a CamelCase SurName usually is special.

My daughter lives in Paragould. We play Iris DeMent on Arkansas Roots on KASU. She's great.

I was homeschooled for most of my pre-high-school years, but other than that this captures so much of young me. I'd bring home a stack of books two feet tall from the library every other week, and not infrequently would read them up in the branches of one of our trees. Math workbooks always got finished early because I liked math (still do), but I have a sneaking suspicion that some of the old novels my mother would suggest were to bolster my otherwise... minimal approach to history.

Meanwhile I developed absolutely no fear of correcting people twice my height and nearly three times my age because I knew our farm and how to care for the animals, and why wouldn't they love them just as much if only they learned how to work with the goat, say, rather than fighting to get it to obey.
