hi fedi! does anyone happen to know how to acquire a nice witch hat?
(i.e. people who sell them, would be willing to make them, or maybe even just instructions I can follow myself)
I desperately need a witch hat to complete my character, especially given the upcoming talks I'll be giving '
by "nice" I mean something that I could wear daily, something that brings joy, something that's well made, looks nice up close, and will last forever. (I can find a lot of bad hats, but what's the point...)

@wffl
If you don't mind paying someone a lot more than amazon, go to your local tailor or dry cleaner. I bet they'd be excited to do something besides hemlines and waistbands.Hit up a fabric store, and ask for advice on the materials. Then provide them to the tailor. That way they're less likely to resist [people don't like doing extra work outside their job description]

@mycrowgirl @secretsloth I don't think I'll be crocheting any time soon, but I think some other people in the comments might appreciate the guide regardless :')
@wffl considering I still haven’t finished mine… I get that 😁
The original video I don’t have bookmarked, but it was a vaguely woodsy witchy dude on tiktok who made his own that nudged me into trying it.
I was struggling with the top to brim transition and this other video on YT is what I used to figure out a better way to do the increases and transitions: https://youtu.be/OwHd7rnsmxI

@wffl oh! Or quilted cotton can work I think? I've seen quilted witch hats. Not a big brim and I believe they do need to be re starched after washing sometimes? But yes! This is a thing. Sorry. I'm a bit nerdy about fiber and fabric crafts and have considered making a witch hat for myself in the not distant past 😅 never could narrow down a style though, too many good ones.
@secretsloth don't be sorry!! being nerdy is good and I asked for the information so thanks!!

@wffl i would call your local tailors and see what they say.
@glitchcake bweeeeh

@wffl idk how you feel about amazon but i saw some crocheted witch hats there awhile back when i helped a friend source one! if you’re into fiber arts it seems like the kind of thing you could crochet pretty easily! but if you’re looking more for the traditional felted hat i’d check etsy

@wffl most folks who want a really "economical" witch hat buy them from costume/masquerade stores. they are often made from a lightweight nylon fabric and have wired edges to hold their shape.
What I would call a "nice" witch hat, as a costumer, is a proper hat made from sturdy felt. That will hold it's shape without being wired. A stunning array of this sort of hat can be found on Etsy.

I don't wear it every day, but it does look good

@wffl i have made a couple nice ones with a wet-felting process. it’s not something i want to take commissions for, but if you’re leaning toward DIY i am more than happy to infodump about the process in as much or as little detail as you’d like. it’s not particularly difficult or expensive but it is a bit time-consuming and physically demanding. and your first hat or two will probably come out a little bit…”rustic” aesthetically, so if “nice” means “perfect-looking” you maybe want to buy one.

You don’t acquire it, you earn it!

@wffl I'd recommend felting, or at least working with felt-fabric to give a nice texture to the hat. Here's a tutorial for how to sew one:

@kenobit @zavaj in ogni caso anche un tentativo fallito di riparazione è una ottima scuola di elettrotecnica da strada, i soldi investiti in pezzi di ricambio e attrezzi sono compensati ampiamente dall’esperienza fatta, la manualità acquisita può tornare utile per il futuro assieme agli attrezzi, e se poi ti dice bene la riparazione riuscita è una figata che pompa l’autostima in modo incredibile.

This could take a while.
The flight tomorrow morning is cancelled, but it will take more than 2 days before I can contact the agent to discuss. 🤔

The next BSSG release will be huge.
I think I won't add anything else before releasing is, as the master branch is already full of changes.I'll wait for some more feedback then, in the coming days, I'll release it.
Highlights
* Introduced a new RAM-first build mode via BUILD_MODE="ram" and ./bssg.sh build --build-mode ram, aimed at faster full rebuilds with lower disk churn.
* Added RAM-mode stage timing output so large builds now report where time is spent.
* Overhauled the modular build pipeline across indexing, content parsing, template preloading, posts, pages, tags, authors, archives, feeds, related posts, and post-processing.
* Improved incremental rebuild behavior with better file and metadata caching, smarter dependency checks, and more selective regeneration.
* Expanded parallel execution support with stronger GNU parallel integration and shell-worker fallbacks when GNU parallel is unavailable or unsuitable.
* Improved asset pre-compression so gzip generation for text assets is incremental and parallelized.
* Extended build CLI overrides, including --build-mode, --site-title, --site-description, --site-url, --author-name, --author-email, --posts-per-page, and the global --config workflow.
* Added RAM-mode tuning knobs and precompression tuning options in configuration and documentation.
* Reworked RSS, sitemap, index, tag, archive, author, and secondary-page generation as part of the pipeline overhaul, with better rebuild logic and cleaner generator boundaries.
* Improved related-post generation and cache invalidation so related-post output tracks changes more reliably.
* Added new themes: liquid-glass, freebsd, netbsd, openbsd, field-journal, microfiche, museum-label, and mynotes.
* Improved generate_theme_previews.sh with a faster default workflow that builds once, clones the output for each theme, swaps CSS, and rewrites SITE_URL references.
* Added --full-build to generate_theme_previews.sh as a slower fallback when per-theme full builds are preferred.
* Added support for Mastodon/fediverse creator metadata on posts via <meta name="fediverse:creator" ...>.
* Added fediverse_creator frontmatter support for posts, plus site-wide FEDIVERSE_CREATOR and exact-match per-author AUTHOR_FEDIVERSE_CREATORS configuration fallbacks.
* Added site-wide fediverse profile verification links via <link rel="me" ...>.
* Added REL_ME_URL for single-link verification and REL_ME_URLS=(...) for multiple rel="me" links, with deduplication when both are used.
* Updated the bundled header template with {{fediverse_creator_meta}} and {{rel_me_link}} placeholders.
* Updated the standalone browser editor and post scaffolding to support fediverse_creator.
* Improved the README and configuration examples to document RAM mode, performance tuning, new themes, fediverse creator metadata, and rel="me" verification.Fixes
* Fixed og:title and twitter:title so they now use the page/post title only, instead of appending the site title.
* Fixed RAM-only builds when no pages exist.
* Hardened RAM-mode helpers and metadata parsing for empty inputs and page-list edge cases.Upgrade Instructions
1. Update your checkout to the new release and review both config.sh and your config.sh.local for newly available options.
2. Decide which build mode you want. If you want the previous disk-backed behavior, set BUILD_MODE="normal" explicitly in config.sh.local. If you want the new memory-first path, keep or set BUILD_MODE="ram".
3. If you use custom templates, update your <head> template to include {{fediverse_creator_meta}} and {{rel_me_link}} inside <head>. The bundled templates/header.html already includes both.
4. If you want fediverse post attribution, optionally set FEDIVERSE_CREATOR, AUTHOR_FEDIVERSE_CREATORS, or add fediverse_creator: in post frontmatter.
5. If you want Mastodon or other fediverse profile verification, set REL_ME_URL or REL_ME_URLS in config.sh.local.
6. If you use generate_theme_previews.sh, note that it now defaults to a faster single-build clone workflow. Use --full-build if you specifically want one full build per theme.
7. Run a clean rebuild after upgrading:./bssg.sh build --force-rebuild --clean-output true
8. Verify the generated homepage, post pages, archives, tags, authors, RSS, sitemap, and any theme previews you publish.
9. No content migration is required. Existing posts and pages continue to work unchanged, and all new metadata/configuration is optional.
