We’ve kept cinema’s biggest twist a secret from the kid for 8 and a half years, and today we’re finally watching Star Wars Episode V

Fuck the haters—and fuck Target especially this year—Happy Pride to all who celebrate. You are wanted you are valued and you are needed. Finding joy in these times is the truest form of spite. Don’t let the bastards get you down. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

“Congrats, you hit your move goal every day this week!” says my watch as I shove a cupcake into my mouth over the sink.

I haven’t posted about local-first stuff in a while. Let’s change that. So I’ve been reimplementing parts of Automerge to learn from and to write about. Threw Cambria in there as well, because why not. Turns out… they say it’d be awesome if the two systems were more tightly integrated? Yep!

I didn’t watch today… did Sovereignty win the Indy 500? It’d be cool to have a triple crown winner this year.

Y'all love being angry at people and leaving irate comments. Here's a case where that could actually help! Get in there and make the world safer.

Watching Star Wars with the 8yo for the first time. Convinced him that the whole movie is just reading the opening scroll for two hours. 😆

Warnock: I don’t know how anybody can be apathetic after what we’re going through right now. We say elections have consequences. That ain’t a slogan right about now. We’re living that reality. Here I am doing everything I can with the tools that I have but tools are not the same…

Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.

Don't let the diet industry fool you. Carbs are not your enemy. Your real energy is Gannondorf, the Demon King, and his nefarious minions. Their plot to overthrow Hyrule must be stopped at all costs.

Restarted my hydroponics after having everything turned off over the winter, and it’s a joy to see tiny lettuce getting bigger every day again.

My biggest frustration in terms of rising to this moment is: people obviously do not understand that there's a whole psyop strategy around DEMORALIZATION. I do not necessarily think that every doomcryer is insincere, but to steal hope is still to hand our enemies weapons.

Today's win: the francishowellforward.org candidates won the election! That breaks the culture-war majority on the board. They won by five points, too, in supposedly-red St. Charles county.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

I hope Alsup walking around like Daft Punk outside the court room, but: this is beyond excellent news in regards to my biggest domestic concern (dismantling the federal government).
