Hey friends, after ten years in the industry the layoffs finally found me.

I'm looking for roles in front end engineering and/or the intersection of engineering and communication (tech lead, developer advocate, that kind of thing).

Just added this to the post to help clarify the two BAT lane options that were on the table: "Some BAT (3 miles) lanes" vs "More BAT lanes (7 miles)"

Current vs a plausible congressional seat map, if the Supreme Court heads in the direction it appears to be by killing elements of the VRA.

Current vs a plausible congressional seat map, if the Supreme Court heads in the direction it appears to be by killing elements of the VRA.

Now, Dems hold 7 of 33 US house seats (21%) across AL, LA, MS, SC & TN. Dems won 37% of 2024 presidential vote in those states.

Now Supreme Court may allow those states to eliminate >all< Dem seats by undermining the VRA www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

Our democracy being chipped away, bit by bit.

Trolleybuses pull power directly into efficient, hill-climbing engines without need for massive, pavement-crushing batteries. Next gen trolleys with in-motion charging offer significant off-wire travel, allowing incremental wire extension. SF and Seattle partnering:

Assorted color tattoo flash of festive Oktoberfest offerings: a vine of hops, a cluster of dark grapes. An ornamental beer stein decorated with a garland of hops sloshing over with ale. A glossy salted pretzel. And finally, a cuckoo clock decorated with autumnal leaves, a bird in flight, and pinecone shaped weights. The text says "Repeatable, black & gray or color, Colors can be changed." On the other side it credits my instagram account: "@gnomefancy" and "booking: kptats.club"

Did you know Oktoberfest really begins in September? It is FALL and it is time for HARVEST and GOOD VIBES and GEMÜTLICHKEIT (but if nobody books this tattoo flash I will actually cry, I love it so much)

The federal govt wants to rescind the Roadless Rule, which would open 45 million acres of public land for private interests - disrupting wildlife habitat, destroying carbon sinks, and imperiling outdoor recreation in the places we love

A large fortress sits atop an rock at the center of an asteroid belt. Two characters look up at the fortress from one of the smaller foreground rocks. A comic panel in the center of the image shows a close of the characters.

Illustration of a hoard of goblins, led by a massive hairy bugbear wielding a serrated blade, swarm towards the heroes. One hero is a human man with blonde hair and shining armour, blue magic blasts from one hand, while the other hand holds a glowing mace. The other hero s a female elf with a flowing cape and a sword made for swashbuckling. In the background is a villager tied up and watching on helplessly.

Watercolored drawing of a man wearing a dark green vest and tan slacks riding a black horse. He holds a skull with a hat in his hand and above his neck float a pair of green eyes. The green splash of paint in the background leaves a negative space where his head would be.
