Year six of Visual Snow Syndrome though and it's also still garbage

Sometimes I think about my dad telling me this is what everyone's vision is like and it makes me wonder if he lied to me or if he is walking around thinking this is normal vision and how many hesd injuries he has sustained

[5] Hitler turned his bodyguard into β€˜political soldiers’ & grew their number dramatically. They were known as the Schultztaffel or SS & were especially feared, during the Reich. They combined military & police powers. By 1939 there were 250,000 of them. Here’s an overview:

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. How corrosive it is that public figures are--more and more shamelessly--ripping the copper wiring out of the walls. Integrity is for suckers. Abusing power is fun. Caring about anything bigger than yourself is lame. An elite class of evil toddlers

Copenhagen has taken bicycle commuting to a whole new level Cycling has been a part of that good life in Copenhagen for decades. In recent years, it has enjoyed yet another unfathomable surge in popularity β€” taken to the next level thanks to constantly improvi...

β€œCopenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike β€” an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.”

#Copenhagen chose. They keep choosing to go further each year.

Maeve suggests they belong to Sylvester, who lives next door to us and is responsible for a very large number of things (according to Maeve)

Yes! Also - the joy of biking for local transportation is hard to put a value on. Been doing it for 25+ years. #ClimateInfluence

I call in and argue for a $20CAD all acces sub every year in November. Because it has a lot of great coverage of many things and we need free press

This year might be the last bc of the worsening transphobic slide, and also because their participation in the Jonathan Majors apology tour - but ugh

State transphobia is fascism, especially if you think it doesn’t count.

Elon Musk has made me very confident in asserting that deaths of people who aren't inside cars and cyber trucks or are insude cars and cyber trucks and highway medians are the inevitable cost of progress and we just need to accept that

As well a woman complained about the orange day parade having to move because they're white

I pointed out Santa and St Patrick are white and haven't had to move and suggested "as an Irish-catholic" maybe there was another reason

Then I learned the troubles had nothing to do with the Protestants

Yesterday at the museum my niece wanted to go look at stuff so began quietly making puppy noises at me. Because I was not finished my coffee I made cat noises back. Much later I considered that many people might've tried using their words.

I sadly agree with this assessment.

In April of 2017 my daughter Robyn went to the People's Climate March in New York City.

Eight years later, I see very little being done to address climate change.

Many people live in the dislusion this is not happening or humanity will figure it out in the end.

I've been in a book club 20 years now and I keep accidentally picking books with magical realism. This has become my hallmark. It's tough on Stephanie.

I find alt text very helpful at times for delivering images but I hadnt considered AI implications.

Making accommodations is a pain til its routine, but limitations are real and its not right to presume someone has capacity to do any extra thing or demand performance of additional work

I have visual snow syndrome- its like when you swapped vcr to tv in the 80s - I also say its like stipple art - all the time.

For images of text android phones now have a thing where you can convert text in an image to plain text by holding the middle button at the bottom of your phone screen.

jackson is writing the type of stuff that, if congressional staffers and elected bother to read it, might make them consider court reform. which is why the conservatives are angry at her and she’s often writing solo
