A U.S. president cannot be held accountable. Therefore, a U.S. president must never make a policy decision.

There are countless websites that generate color palettes, but I needed a reusable package for my own apps. So I built dittoTones. 🟣
It mimics the perceptual DNA (Lightness/Chroma curves) of popular systems and blends them with your target hue → meodai.github.io/dittoTones/

agree with this and think there's something v telling about people going "ooh but why are you on Bluesky it's irrelevant" - what if I don't really care about being relevant! the vast majority of people post on social media not because they want to be famous but because they enjoy it! just be normal!
the proximate reason i post here — beyond the fact that i like a lot of you and enjoy reading your thoughts and jokes and observations — is that this is a non-algorithmic platform where people share lots of stuff and people read what is shared. that's still valuable even if it doesn't "influence!"

"Blooming Cherry" captures a cherry tree I saw this spring in the Willamette Valley. When you look at this piece, it gives you the sensation of looking up among branches during peak bloom. The painting measures 48x70 in and was part of my Colossal Collection.

111: first to support. Maybe we can all be police officers. I’m not getting my Chip Wilson payments. We need more ATVs on the beach! Brian let me know where you’re living, I’d love to get out of the city

I’ve only watched a handful of these speeches, but it’s been inspiring to see so many people from all different walks of life taking the time to wait in line and speak.
106: calls it the peoples filibuster. Nothing to do with community care. Lays out stats of how many billionaires and centinillionaires. I never wabt to go to Chip Wilson beach or Pattinson gardens. This is a colonial firewall. This is economic small talk. This will hamper future councils.

Jane Goodall came to our school when I was a kid. That whole week beforehand, all the teachers and faculty were freaking out and repeatedly telling us we had to be on our BEST behavior. This wasn’t some assembly about the importance of recycling, this was THE JANE GOODALL, who none of us knew.

Rebecca Bligh voted to slash wages for workers, to block rental housing in wealthy neighbourhoods, and to oppose common sense tools to properly fund our schools.
We need a progressive mayor on the ballot to deliver the change Vancouver needs. And we’ll get one. More soon.

Vancouver councillor Rebecca Bligh makes official she will run for mayor next year under a new banner of “Vote Vancouver”.
Bligh was first elected in 2018 with the NPA, left them, joined Sim’s ABC Party and was re-elected, before she was booted from ABC, mostly on divisions over social issues.

conservationist have re-established so many species over the past thirty years that it is kind of ridiculous. "this animal was down to, like, six individuals and now there's hundreds of them" is a very common story and it's because humans decided to work their asses off
Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling.
I’ll start: you can buy an enormous TV from Costco for like $100 bucks now.
