Facebook one-day losses: $119 Billion
Global cheese market (projected for 2019): $118 Billion

Yep. Facebook did indeed lose, in one day, more value than the entire concept of cheese

Hit the twitter "impressions" thing. Reminded that optimizing for "maximum engagement" also means minimizing content value as you reduce your posts to the lowest common denominator. Gotta resist that temptation... I'm not interested in being a clickbait factory.

Boost this toot if rainbow, trans, or other queer flags are a primary decoration in one of your living spaces.

Hey Seattle friends: someone I know is looking for administrative assistant/clerical work, if your place of business or nonprofit needs someone cheerful, resourceful, and professional to keep it together, please alert me so I can pass it along!

The historic Showbox music hall (which has just recently turned 79) is scheduled for demolition for some shitty gentrifying apartment blocks.

There's a petition linked in the toot below, I'm not sure if there's anything else you can do about it, I'm guessing you should keep your eyes peeled.

Please don’t just barrel into another person and dump your pain on them. Your pain is valid and real, but if you do that you’re only handing that off to someone who’s not prepared for it. That’s only going to continue the cycle.

Hey, I know that lots of folks are hurting right now. There’s a ton of pain going around in the orthocosm and elsewhere. When you go to someone else to talk about that pain, try to ask the following questions:

1) Have they eaten/showered/got a good night’s sleep?
2) Are they in a place to listen to you?
3) Do they have the time / energy to listen right now?

Be extremely cautious when interacting with right wing agent provocateurs. They have adopted a strategy of gaslighting and subversion of meaningful discussion

You may not be engaging in dialogue or “debate” so much as playing into their performance

I don’t yet know of an effective strategy to combat this besides early detection. But if you’re in a heated argument, that can be difficult
