libs pls take note

when you finally get to hold a truth to be self-evident, that is a good feeling

This one is _definitely_ going to happen soon

I still have one (1) password I remember from 2009. This should not be legal. Sending myself to the gulag

Oh my god that’s exactly what all this “de-extinction” stuff is. It’s way sexier and more scifi to pretend like we can bring back mammoths (we can’t) than actual wildlife conservation, which is a lot of unsexy hard work but actually gets results.

do you guys ever think about how many watermelons they wasted trying to recover one loaf of bread #abolition

Heya friends -- Do I know anyone passing through Schipol airport any time in the next 3 months? (I lost my driver's license and they found it but won't ship it)

I just want to point out that "switch from using proper nat'l security channels to a signal group chat" is exactly the kind of stupidity that animates the entire push for "government efficiency". These people aren't just stupid & dangerous; they are ideologically driven to stupidity.

DATA THAT BRIEFLY APPEARED IN A REPORT FROM THE CDC AND THEN ABRUPTLY VANISHED JFC

no one tells you a key part of a developing meditation practice is to excitedly tell people about it, so when you fall off for a few days you develop a powerful sense of shame & self-hatred 🙏 this helps you conserve your limited store of compassion, so you can use it for your sitting – hth! ✌️😅

okay #javascript #webdev -- I have a react app, growing in size and complexity, but with no tests!! I think I'd prefer a testing approach that simulates a browser and clicks through, submitting forms and expecting certain results... how do you go about this? what is the new meta for react testing?

respect to those who knew they were trans from a young age, but my experience was more ~"Sure, I was a man back then, but in my defence, I didn't enjoy it"

Personally I would never cut funding for ebola research no matter how much my kids hated me

My theory on the "you get more conservative with age" is that actually institutions get more conservative. if you change your media consumption habits and institutional associations, there's no reason it has to happen to you too. But most "decent libs" in USofA will not cancel their WaPo subs, so...
