I have books on my shelf right now that are nearly 300 years old. There is absolutely no way that any digital media that exists today will be accessible in 300 years.

If you're stressing out about tomorrow, there are now over 400 local immigration groups listed on this spreadsheet across all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico - take a minute, find one near you, and commit to spending an hour volunteering with them.
Not everyone can run or sit on a board.
Good thing there are literally dozens of other proactive means of defending libraries and schools!

Referred to my utterly obnoxious ADHD habit of interrupting others with what I *think* they’re going say as “Chat GPTing people” while talking to my therapist the other day
autocompletion as an incredibly annoying expression of neurodivergence

Incapable of hearing "who do you think you are??" without thinking "I am"
It is truly wild that it is estimated that more than 20 million people died of Covid and the prevailing vibe is that the world overreacted. That is an astonishing toll! More people died of Covid in the US than in the Civil War. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

I finished the Briana capelet from Outlander this week (Capa Briana by Katia Alaska on Ravelry). I used 2-1/2 skeins of Patons Classic wool, 2 strands together to make bulky weight. It's a quick/easy knit and very cozy. 🧶 Glass buttons.
