I fake being an extrovert. (he/him)

Inside of me are two wolves. One of them is a raccoon. The other is a possum.

All members of ICE/CBP are stupid, cowardly, inhumane assholes.

There. I said it.

Bluesky Wrapped and its just how few mutual interactions you actually had because you live up to your domain name.

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

Actually, the likelihood is 100%. In US jurisprudence, accused people are innocent until proven guilty. Hegseth's victims were not proven guilty; they were not even tried. Therefore they were ALL, to the last man, legally innocent. Hegseth ordered the murders of several dozen innocent men.
Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

we are well past the point at which anyone who cannot identify bad faith like this is disqualified from commenting on it

the girl and her mother are basically screaming THIS IS A BAD FAITH ATTACK ON TRANS PEOPLE at the top of their lungs and if you can't see that you're stupid or lying
a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

I love this idea. My dad died when I was three and I had to figure out simple things like how to tie a tie and even shave on my own. Please retweet this because I know there are a lot of kids out there who could use some help with day to day life.

@profanity.accountant I'm curious how my idea of what I do differs of how I actually do. 😁

A great thread on presentation slide design dos/don’ts.

And if you watch older Apple keynotes feom when they were in-person, they basically follow all these guidelines. 🧵👇
Somewhat related, my graphic design advice is that unless the image is a key point of your presentation, like it’s actually something you need to show people to get the point of your slide across, then don’t use one. Slides need to be functional, not overcrowded and “cute”.
I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

This makes me want to make a Key Lime pie with a Crushed Trix crust.
A reminder that you can use almost any breakfast cereal you want to make a pie crust by crushing it and handling it as you would graham cracker crumbs.

As a reminder if a traffic signal is out in PA, it’s a 4 way stop. Oakland still doesn’t have power and the motorcycle cops probably just made payroll for whole city in a few hours pulling people over.

Concentration camp.
ICE started holding people at the Fort Bliss, El Paso location in late July/early August. It is now the largest detention center in the country.
