“…and then be able to have magic happen”

Right, because when I use my computer, I definitely want it to be magic and not a tool that I know how to use.

“We want every person making the move to experience what it means to have a PC that’s not just a tool, but a true partner” no, thank you, my PC is just a tool, and so is my phone, and so is my other tech, and it'll stay this way.

It's incredible how out of touch and out of reality tech bros are

It’s actually pretty cool that in this time where our birth control access is threatened, men help out by buying cybertrucks

Official ICE government account
June 6, 2025:
"To call us 'Nazis' - to compare us to one of the worst groups in history - is disgusting and just outright wrong.
"What the men and women of ICE are doing in Massachusetts and all over this country is making communities safer."
—ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons

An order of "Seafoam Warrior" in lace weight alpaloop and bobble chunky. A mix of thin and thick yarn that will work up in different but really cool ways. Based on a warrior from the #BookOfKells this is a gorgeous sea breezy colorway.

I can't wait to see how these work up. 🧶

2. Rolling Stone is owned by a large media conglomerate, which is ending remote work across its brands.

My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.

Huh:

- cuts to police overtime
- no new property taxes
- no city grocery tax

This all seems pretty good, actually. I'm sure there's stuff in here I'm not going to like, but those 3 things were big on my list of hopes.

All WA workers deserve protection. WA AG Nick Brown’s new bill would require employers to notify employees ahead of ICE raids, giving families time to prepare and access legal support.
Thank you, AG Brown, for standing up for fairness, safety, and the rights of every worker in our state.
