New video: DIY gone wrong

This morning I’ll be preparing the final tax returns for the beard products business I co-own with three friends. We had a decent year or two but it’s been effectively defunct for two years at this point. We’ve all been too busy and our interest waned over time.

Is there any way to get the “new post” page on the web interface to remember (instead of having to click the option every time) to show categories? @help

Woodland crocus is always the first flower in our yard—and this year it’s even earlier. According to Seek, I first recorded it on Feb 22 last year. They’re just gorgeous little things.

Yes, I opened an account with Evil Empire. The other services either didn’t seem like a good fit or were too fiddly for me. Since I don’t plan to be a vlogger, I’m just looking for quick and simple. I’ll likely leave them all set to unlisted.

Anyone know of a way to see a list of posts that haven’t been categorized? Ideally, within the micro.blog site itself where I can assign categories to them.
