Propose to me with the Casio Ring Watch I will say yes no matter my current relationship status

CBC has a great short doc out on the “shadow war” against #libraries. Wrote about it briefly on my blog and why your library needs your support now more than ever: cartography.pika.page/posts/you-ne...

I get that Apple was trying to be environmental (cheap? Pushing people to AirPods?) by not packing EarPods in with new iPhones but now everyday I encounter someone playing music and video straight off their phone speakers and it suuuuucks give people their headphones back Apple

The New York Times analyzed the electoral impact of annexing Canada instead of asking why the president is talking like a dictator. www.readtpa.com/p/stop-analy...

In the past few months I’ve played 1000xResist @sunsetvisitor.studio and Citizen Sleeper 2 @jumpovertheage.com back to back and they’re both so impossibly good and elevate video game storytelling so beyond that I think other video games are just ruined for me now

On my blog I wrote about how @writer.ia.net has given me the tools to abandon manually organizing my notes and become more focused and productive in my day-to-day as a #librarian cartography.pika.page/posts/never-...

@theverge.com on how the push against DEI is, of course, just the same old racist shit in a new disguise. An important read that should be echoed by other, even bigger, news organizations: www.theverge.com/politics/613...

Amazing sight on the bus this morning: someone climbed over a person sitting on the outside of a two seat set (a demented thing to do in transit) to get to the open seat. Incredible confidence. Enviable audacity. A true folk hero.

It's not feasible for the average American to boycott everything. But if you're interested, I made a list.

"Save the world, lie to cops" Sticker spotted in Portland, Oregon

The Trump administration is attacking the judiciary because they’re carrying out an executive coup. Because they don’t want to be restrained by the law. Because Trump is an autocrat.

15-20 years using free market solutions like solely increasing supply. What about co-ops? What about redirecting supply out of the hands of slumlords with policy? Kelowna is a housing crisis playground www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna...

hard to be on the internet these days and not be in a constant state of rage. i spent a decade finding this great community on twitter, loved seeing ppl share their work, it gave me a place to connect and share my stuff too. now it's a men's rights forum run by a nazi who thinks hes dane cook

the first time you play Katamari Damacy is a little like the first time you stick your arm out the window of a moving car and feel the wind on your fingers

Me analyzing every lyric Kendrick rapped for the act of protest I was convinced he would do

"We won’t give up on palestine" Stencil sotted in Beirut, Lebanon

Most of the world’s brightest minds are hard at work developing new ways for you to get depression from a computer

Who knew malicious compliance (maybe?) was invented by the CIA

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment

I think I would much rather see the same rotation of Unsplash images for the rest of my life than see anymore shitty AI images on blog posts but idk that’s just me

It’s crazy that the sequel to one of the best video games of all time is coming out in less than a week people need to be more hyped about this

I would argue they are both, to varying degrees, about finding connection and community in spaces designed by capitalism to crush you

The Canadian public does not like Elon Musk.
