Nonprofit design and interenet stuffs for work, cats and cooking for home, politics and anti-racism for making a better world and fighting fascists. Chronic illness & COVID safety concerned. Rarely post but reskeet lots of smart folks I follow.
Look what came today! Already read almost half! Cozy in the hammock on a warm, but not too hot evening with decent air quality. Life (here anyhow) is good tonight.
I clicked your link to check this out and what is going on here? This is one of the company's product photos and .... do people put jars in them to heat up or is this AI slop? So confused... any idea what's up? BTW our $45 (also stainless steel) one has lasted 6 years so far & still going 🤞
withhold unanimous consent, rally your colleagues to actually obstruct some and get leverage.
Thanksgiving-Cyber Monday, I won't spend a dime at Target, Home Depot, & Amazon. I'm tired of corporations enabling this regime ditching DEI, sending ICE to terrorize our communities, & chasing tax breaks. Join me! #WeAintBuyingIt 🚫
Here's a compilation of photos my dad took in the 1950s of my mom and their cats. It always brings me a little bit of joy.
The Good Trouble Lives On campaign supports the Eugene Springfield NAACP. Resisting authoritarianism will take everyone coming together for mutual support and empowerment. NAACP does this work in our community in many ways that benefit us all. More naacplanecounty.org Donate: square.link/u/obXeudOt
WHAT MORE CAN WE DO? We need much more than protests. Act locally to build networks, systems & examples. • Support your local NAACP (ours, square.link/u/obXeudOt) • Donate a Good Trouble little library book - linktr.ee/goodtroublel... • Get involved • Volunteer • Share & Spread the word
Eugene/Springfield OR folks - let's start some Good Trouble tomorrow.
two of the best signs from today's 50501 protest in OR. The back of The Scream one read "Just leave us alone!"
I was able to send a message with his contact form (back up) but just in case there are local office numbers you can call (or visit)
Yup - first Monday after ballots received. Lane County represent
Sadly WaPo no longer really does gift links. Using them gets the screen here - so you don't have to fully subscribe to read, but they do demand your email. Worthless now.
Just here to add Dead Man to the list - also Wings of Desire. There are many many
I made this today & it made me happy so I thought I'd do something different & actually share something here. It's my mom's German Strawberry Torte recipe. Today would have been my dad's 97th birthday and she made it for him every year. I was just trying to use up strawberries but I guess its fate.
Unfortunately in Firefox at least no love. I hunted through the settings just now to see if there is somewhere to turn it on, but I couldn't find it. This is what I have:
Just finished the Three Body Problem trilogy by Cixin Liu (most excellent) and just started the The Gifted of Brennex trilogy by Jo Miles (looking good)
There are actually so many. This is one page for a book of loved pets I made for my mom in memory care a couple of years ago - Napolion was around in the early 1950s. That's my mom holding him.
