I'll never shame anyone for streaming my music instead of buying it...

HOWEVER

Please get off of Spotify, use anything else at all. If you're afraid of your library disappearing, just know that 95% of musicians op for their music to get uploaded everywhere, even sites they've never heard of.

Ink and watercolor drawing of an Opabinia, a tiny marine creature who looks kind of like a shrimp with flaps along its side and an elephant's trunk.

The Opabinia is an extinct marine creature, only around 7 cm long, who probably didn't have a silly expression like the one I drew for #AugArthroAwe

Sorry, I read "Yeah, thatโ€™ll work. ๐Ÿ˜‚". Didn't say anything about the USA no longer being a nation of laws or that the courts are powerless. Sounded to me like you're saying it won't work, so whats the point. I must has miss-read.

Hey putting it out there, Disco Elysium is like the most important game ever to me, but dont play the mobile version that's releasing in a few days. The actual devs and writers of the original game were fucked over by the publisher, and this mobile version is a shameful exploitation of their passion

You keep calling me names and telling me to leave the conversation, but I havenโ€™t insulted you once. Iโ€™ve only pointed out facts and stayed respectful. If that offends you, maybe take a moment to ask why.

This is the level of rage I got for saying both major U.S. parties support Israel, including during its most brutal actions in Gaza.
It isnโ€™t a partisan debate โ€” itโ€™s a human rights crisis. Pressure all parties to stop supporting this, and stop turning it into a โ€œwhich side is betterโ€ game.

Gave #TailwindCSS a spin (itโ€™s a different approach to styling websites). Didnโ€™t love the idea at first, but after a few days of experimenting, I totally get the appealโ€”especially when a layout is simple but still needs page-specific tweaks. #Frontend #IndieWeb #CatAndBot #MadeWithLibreTools
