“Your research found that Donald Trump’s strongest support in 2016 came from people who stayed in and around their hometowns, while those who moved away were more likely to back Hillary Clinton.” Yeah, I came to this conclusion by looking at Facebook. apple.news/APBu0TD0rT8y...

Reality itself is now a little too on the nose.

For people wondering when the right began falling in love with Putin: It was after the passage of the first anti-gay law in Russia in 2013. That was the moment GOP elected officials and rightwing Christian grifters started showing up on Fox to heap praise Putin. www.theguardian.com/world/2013/j...

When I make playlists to share with people, I inevitably find that 1-3 of the tracks aren’t available when I try to copy them from Music to Spotify. It bugs me.

Following S2E3 of #Severance: • Sydney Cole Alexander is amazing. Her eyes alone are doing a wild amount of work. • Britt Lower’s performance as her outie persona feels like there’s an absolute psychopath waiting under that poised exterior. So different from Helly R. I love this show.

I’ve never wished more for less disappointing search results on “Cascadia secession.” C’mon, California is at least starting an initiative process. We should be able to muster *that* much gumption.

I work in web development with a number of very young people, and very few days go by without me wishing they had been required to take at least a week of lessons on basic UNIX shell usage. I just had to explain to someone that, no, $ is not part of the command the instructions asked you to use.
