This is Ground Control to Minor Tom
You're still in seventh grade
And you're showing off the Lego car you made
We're not allowed to send a kid to space
Not sure folk are aware that using Google fonts by URL in their CSS undermines the privacy of each and every site visitor, sending their IP to GG with every visit. How? Because with each visit they download the font from GG, not your server.
If you will use GG fonts, don't do this
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=FontName[...]
Download that font, and resource it locally instead
@font-face {
font-family: FontName';
font-style: normal;
src: url('../fonts/FontName.woff2');

CW: Bio, health, teeth, anxiety, Seattle area request for help, (redrafted)
I have anxiety about my teeth. when I'm really high, i can imagine my mouth is dying. it sucks. I have anxiety about dentist. They are all experts in guilt, no matter how gentle they try to be, and every visit is just excruciating.
I still need recs for one, though. I need a lot of work. Preferably one with the good machines and surgeons and the Good drugs. femme dentist preferred. Queer friendly preferred
Thanks,

Remember, kids: Talk to your fellow employees about how much you're paid. No employer has your best interests at heart. They need your labor to continue doing business, and they want to pay as little as they possibly can for it.
That puts you, the workers, in the position of power. Remember that too.
poem
blue sky, you highest vaulted arch,
not often enough do we meet -
i am hemmed in always by flat ceilings
and long for the wash of your sun
promised through the windows
until after it has set, and the moon,
saint of the unknown, greets me
with its entourage of little stars
and blesses me to try again tomorrow.

Key quote: "this brutal treatment started as a hidden homage to the title cards in old Toho movies from the sixties and seventies, but soon became visually synonymous with Evangelion after the show first aired."
