Might as well post what I've been working on for the last 6 months. It's a native HD Audio driver for Windows 98. I'd hoped to improve the compatibility more before posting about it but why not be proud of what you do.

Been trying to track this figure down; I've found it credited to Jeff Wheeler at the Minnesota Star Tribune, but I can't find the original.
It's a heck of a picture, so if someone knows where Star Tribune published it first, that'd be neat to link to.

love how 2026 life is just alternating between “find out how the gestapo is executing people today” and “keep hocking your wares so you don’t lose your home in the country that hates social safety nets” over and over until mental collapse

With video of another street execution from ICE going around, a reminder that while video documentation of atrocities is important, you have no ethical obligation to watch videos of people dying. Traumatizing yourself isn’t advocacy. You do not have to watch the video to be outspoken against this

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect.

If you can do something, do it. Beyond that, don't torture yourself over things you can't change.
They want you afraid, miserable and burnt out.
Take care of yourself.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.

haven't seen it emphasized enough in the risk comms, but you need to be really careful when venturing out on foot after an ice storm. it doesn't take more than a falling branch or an icicle to kill you dead (plus, entire trees will be falling). it happens every storm. don't be a statistic

"The blood was only ever a means to an end," the vampire confessed in the interview.
"To what end?" the reporter asked.
"Blood carries vigor, life force, vital energy. That's what we feed on."
"So how do you get it, if not through blood?"
"These days, we make doom scrolling apps to drain it."
