Bad at gardening, so I focus on UX research, product innovation, teaching, spoiling my dog, & eating lobster.
You can hire me for advice on any of the above.

Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course?

Don’t normalize this abuse of office. It’s blatant corruption.

Elon Musk trying to prove his worth to online teens gets destroyed by commenters as he live streamed Path of Exile 2 whispers. Commenters said “YOU HAVE NO REAL FRIENDS AND WILL DIE ALONE” & “DIE” as he frantically tried to hide them, then lost his hardcore permadeath character due to Starlink lag.

“We had literally 5-7 times as many people show up as RSVPs in most of the places where we held marches. What we were hearing throughout the day was the biggest problem that organizers of these marches were having…was that too many people were showing up.” - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social on #handsoff

If a random dude starts going off about how awesome this shitshow will be for US manufacturing, just point to any item he owns and ask him to describe the process in detail, including material inputs and their sources, necessary machinery, labor, and the type and toxicity of byproducts generated.

Remember folks, if you're protesting and someone starts goading you to get violent, they're a cop.

If you get arrested or detained in any way, ask, "Am I free to go?" If they say yes, walk away. No? Shut the fuck up. Don't say anything else without a lawyer.

Good trouble, friends. Get busy.

North Carolina folks, check to see if that douchebag is trying to invalidate your vote. The citizen-created links are way easier. Because of course.

Share with all your NC pals.

If you know NC military overseas who voted by mail, they are highly affected.
