This storm looks really serious. Do your grocery run tomorrow and stay off the roads on the weekend if you can. If trees come down people may be without power in frigid temps. Check on your neighbors.

The weather people at work are on edge about this one.

With most work being done out of a browser, this is already the case for many people.

There's also FOSS options like LibreOffice and OnlyOffice. Bazzite (and SteamOS) aren't just for games.

Chiitan loves all transgender people.
I've received a lot of criticism for expressing my support, but what's more important is that all transgender people live happy lives.
Blue Sky cannot display long posts, so please read this post if you'd like.
love you all 🤍

Seeing Zohran instantly getting a bunch of shit done in like a week makes you realize that politicians could always do that on some level if they wanted it bad enough and very few of them actually do.

THIS. Did you know sickle cell is curable, now? FULLY curable.

If you're feeling down or despairing about what FEELS like technology/advancement/science "standing still" or being fully malicious, I have great news: You're not paying attention to actual science. Just tech industry marketing.

During Christmas, a time when so many people are spending time with family for the holidays, I always notice that a disproportionate number of service industry workers who are covering those days tend to be queer.

It always makes me a bit sad why this is likely the case.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

just... entirely unnecessary all of the time, but even more so for an *internal* project.

Sucks, I used to really love their games! But the more I hear about how they operate the more turned off I am.

Wrapped up a focused little Design Tokens workflow and tooling project for a client this morning.

I think that's me for 2025.

For 2026, do you need a natty front-end developer? A Design Systems expert? A Design Tokens master? All three?
