Basically earthquakes were like the second-most reason I was ever on twitter back in the day.

Today I learned I spend too much time on #slack.

I am fond of night and darkness, but of course I live in an era when artificial light is almost too abundant. I don't like them used as metaphors for negative things since that can have racial overtones. And the desert taught me to love shade and night as reprieve from the glaring light and heat.

Kendrick Lamar has 22 Grammies and a damn Pulitzer if you don’t know who he is that’s a You problem

Minor or alternative league baseball is where it’s at. It’s actually fun. Anyway. Sports!

I went to a 49ers game back in the 90’s, and holy hell was it the slowest game in the world. 90 seconds of play and 10 minutes to break for ads.

I don’t watch football but:
- Eagles ftw cause Jalen
- Chiefs wtf is that name
- what time is Kendrick on I don’t want to have to sit through all the other stuff

The Husbands by Holly Gramazio When Lauren returns home to her flat in London late one night, she is greeted at the door by her ...

I read “The Husbands” this week, and it was the perfect read to start in Groundhog Day. app.thestorygraph.com/books/d4ccec... #booksky

Unrelated…I was not expecting Only Murders in the Building to be so…sad? @nerdyrealtor.bsky.social and we’re expecting little more farce from the first couple of episodes. (Yes, we are late to the party.)

Being really into Lego has helped my fam be excellent at ikea builds. Also: got to explain industrial design to the kid in an authentic way, so, bonus.

there’s no way to say this without sounding like a bowl of extra useless crunchy granola i realize that but my god is it ever important to turn that panic energy into caring-for-your-communities energy

Right?!

Right?!

dang, the internet reallllly wants me to watch severance

no babes, get that checked out

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

My favorite tax paperwork is the 990. TIL a small org is on is 3rd strategic plan in 6 years, 20% of the budget goes to a private university for a research study, and the director's salary is more than 8% of the total operating budget. Like...there's just a lot of fun info! apps.irs.gov/app/eos/

Argh capitalism!

For someone who has always kinda struggled to let things just grow, this feels pretty magical.

“waahhhh egg prices are too high” just lay the eggs yourself you lazy prick

I might have more questions later but hope you stay healthy out there! This bug is *rough*.

5. I finished Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom over the holidays with my kid, and need a new rec, same vibe.

4. Why is it 6 bucks per gallon of gas at one port city and 2.5 bucks in another? Like…that’s a wide span, and seen in less than 5 days from one another. Regulation and gouging…is that it?

3. Why can’t I drink cold brew in the same manner as regular coffee? Like, my stomach acts as if I’ve done something crazy and new.

(I largely think AI art is bad)

2. Does everyone think that AI art is bad or are folks using it as a shorthand in some way? It reminds me of blacklight posters from the 70’s.
