Absolution is the name of the game for many people in this country right now.

The DHS Twitter has been tagging and calling out a local journalist writing on immigration in Chicago. Local journalists covering what’s happening need continual support especially as they write these important stories.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

The war zone in Portland is out of control.

If I wanted to disrupt a protest, I'd start a rumor that the regime was going to send agitators to infilitrate the protest and act up.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

it's kinda weird that all the software i am expected to use for work are all written by distributed teams, go, python, postgres, linux, chrome, k8s etc

and despite being told "the best teams work in an office together" i don't know of any software i use that's actually written that way

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Lost a bet👅

100%, and one specific callout: landlords have their credit scores and overall eq/risk profiles massively bolstered by owning property but then forcing everyone else to pay for their loans :^).

Renters don't get credit.

A wide open space with high vaulted ceilings that feature striking square wooden panels in a lattice-like pattern. A window at the end allows light to shine into the space.

The beautiful Eden Prairie Public Library. From a grocery store to a crown jewel of the Hennepin County library system. Minnesotans love their libraries.
