Witnessing the present day.

After having to confront my father about his lack of COVID consciousness, he's threatened to toss me out of the house outright.

Hopefully he doesn't act on that, but things being what they are, been long time to start moving towards archiving and redistributing old stuff as needed or desired.

When I write things like this, I'm not trying to be a downer

I'm actually a joyful, fun person for the most part

There's a reason I've had friends/"family" all around this planet for most of my life

No, I write about it for those stuck in it like me, and in some dying hope that it means something
I remember doing things with people.

Sadly, being disabled and immunocompromised in a world full of nasty shit nobody wants to fight makes me feel like those days have passed for me. It sucks. But ya know, I get it.

Wearing a mask and caring about others is really hard. 🫠

'Spelunker' released on NES on this day in 1985.

This conversion of Tim Martin's Atari 800 classic would take on a life of its own in Japan, with "the weakest hero in gaming" going on to become something of a pop culture icon.

Some of us BEEN warning you about U.S. policing.

We told you to reimagine local PD, to establish a public safety system that actually kept the public safe.

Now Project 2025 is the law of the land; I.C.E. and local cops are disappearing people in broad daylight. No Due Process.

Now, it’s too late.

Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

He has been stuck for an hour. He says it’s horribly busy, and he’s waiting in the car.

Hmmmmm 🤔

Thats not a good sign. pharmacy busy, then GP busy, then ED busy, then ICU busy…

imho companies should try selling more random consumer devices as "vegan"
like, "vegan computer", "vegan trampoline", "vegan Torx screwdriver", "vegan grand piano", "vegan paper", etc.

- accurate & truthful
- more sales
- make people panic how the products are normally made

My org @fightforthefuture.org has been “de-googling” for the last year.

We’re totally off Google suite, Google docs, Drive, Calendar.

We’re using Signal and Element for chat, Nextcloud for docs, etc

Planning to publish a “how to” guide for other nonprofits and activist groups soonish.

Ilhan Omar: "It's completely disgusting. These are Americans that he is calling garbage ... it's also really important for us to remember that this kind of hateful rhetoric and this level of dehumanizing can lead to dangerous actions by people who listen to the president."

When we talk about affordability, it just simply means being able to take care of your family. Americans just want to be able to provide for their families and not have to sweat every paycheck as to whether they can afford to go to the doctor and get groceries some pretty basic stuff. #Vote 🗳️

We need to kill the worship of efficiency.

We have two news channels instead of hundreds of thousands of papers and outlets. More efficient? Absolutely. And it's terrible.

Doctor's offices that are all video? Very efficient. Super shitty.

Efficiency is the enemy. We're so scared of friction.

Reminders, as public health officials warn of a very bad flu season:

🧵

* Washing hands is not a strategy for a respiratory virus. N95s, ventilation, air filtration -- especially in hospitals.

* We should have been cleaning indoor air with the same effort we put into cleaning drinking water.

apologies for stating what's already obvious, but the wide circulation of that AI-generated video of ICE agents being "arrested" by police is a.) probably being furthered by bots with no good intent and b.) meant to make people think _they_ don't have to get involved in community witness etc.
