Direct democracy from my favorite place on the planet 😍🇧🇪

I want journalists to have this freedom between platforms

This whole system is so much more transparent and distributes decision-making power so much more effectively. 🤯 I can host where I please, and something like community caches are now a commodity that can be transparent and competitive, like Fastly or any other traffic management tool.

Quilts are durable as shit. They handle heat without a sweat. They warm against the cold. They get softer with age. They carry memories. They are imperfect and unique. They bear any task gracefully, give comfort to anyone who needs it.

I aspire to the qualities of a quilt.

This is not normal, this is not normal, this is not normal. We shouldn't have families struggling for food while 1 person gets paid a trillion dollars.

36 for us. Saved for over 10 years and still could only put 3% down because of how high prices were, taxes and closing costs.

Nothing makes me feel like a hacker more than debugging the error code on my garage door opener.

A year ago, I was participating in my first strike. I was exhausted, outraged, and determined. Now I'm stepping into the role of vice-chair for my unit. You don't have to be special to make a difference, you just have to believe there's a better way and roll up your sleeves.
