You know, to be perfectly honest, if you REALLY want to do something to help my mood, there's something very specific I can ask for...

Go to egypt.urnash.com/parallax/ and tell us what you think. Constructive criticism, especially a DETAILED "I don't get what's going on here and here" would be super-welcome. And tell your friends.

We don't expect you all to read it regularly, but man, if anyone finds our work interesting -- or can explain why it's not -- I could sure stand to hear it today.

Raziel snuck up on the watermelon very very stealthfully and took a lick... and then jumped backwards nearly off the desk, shaking his head and making "BLEH! BLEH!" faces. that'll teach him. I am laughing so hard right now, and he's running around squeaking indignantly. XD

Hi.

Please do not shame people for existing under capitalism.

This includes shaming people for not participating in a boycott you're privileged enough to be able to participate in.

Thanks.

You find out that your life is just part of a reality show. But it doesn’t just revolve around you. All you know is that 50% of all people are actors and 50% are as real as you. But you don’t know who falls into which category.

Offering code of conduct assistance 

I’m thinking about offering a flat-rate code of conduct consultation again. I’d spend about an hour to read your policies and create a report with my recommendations, and a 30 min call to discuss. Any open source projects or user groups who might be interested?

this fan I got is called a "Vornado" and *every* *time* I see it (the name is helpfully emblazoned in the front center of the fan) I think of Other Things...

Dr. Rajagopalan Vasudevan has, since his pilot project in 2002, replaced 10,000km of roads in India with an asphalt that includes recycled consumer plastic as a binder.

The plastic melts at a safe temperature - 100C below its burning point, so it doesn't release toxins into the air - and replaces 10% of the bitumen normally used. It prevents potholes (since it seals the bitumen-asphalt gaps water would seep into) and reduces waste.

She talks about how the Gems are coded as female but are nonbinary, and explicitly says she is a nonbinary woman herself. It legit brought happy tears to my eyes.
