I like tech, art, jewelry making, and caring about things and people. and music.

What’s the right balance between things that matter and things that are pretty? I don’t fuckin know, you get what you get

remembering the time i showed a photo of me with my nephews to a friend and they said “i just gotta double check who’s in that picture, they look like a middle aged woman”

Middle aged?!? I mean look ok i’ll overlook that for now and just take the gender euphoria but i haven’t even hit 40 yet 😭😭

a fidget pendant prototype, you can grab the bead and just spin it round and round.

literally just some scrap wire that went into this one, the scraps were already stiff so I couldn’t get as elegant a set of swoops and curls as i normally would, so it probably goes back into the scrap heap.

Radical Optimism is not "hope", it is knowing that every action towards a better world will eventually see it come to fruition. If not for me, then for those that come after me.
Just as we proved able to remain revolutionaries, proved able to work under terrible conditions and emerge from them, so shall we emerge now because it is not our whim, it is objective inevitability that has arisen in an utterly ruined country

My kids have had teachers who use it and their teaching is so much worse than other teachers at the school. My kids complain about how awful their classes are all the time. The kids can feel the lack of depth, knowledge, and interest. It sets the worst tone.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

Ffs. Using AI to cut people off from support.

ACC's financial squeeze: The human toll
People like father Jacob Hamlin and his family have wound up in hardship as the agency pushes more people off long-term claims to get costs under control.

It was illegal in England to say Hitler was doing a genocide. Until of course it looked liked the Russians would kick all your melanin deficient arses.
