Happy World #TsunamiDay to all who celebrate - which should be all of us, because you never know where you'll be when disaster strikes. Preparedness and mitigation make us all safer regardless of where we live, especially as our world is increasingly connected on a global scale.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,
it is right.
No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,
it is a strength.
No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,
it is unlimited.
it is right.

Y'all. It's the year of our Lord, 2025. It is dead simple to put up a website as a candidate explaining why you're running and where you stand on stuff. If you're not even going to bother to put in that effort, why should I spend one iota of a second considering you to run my town?

Re-watching the 'Father of the Bride (1991)' & 'Father of the Bride II (1995)' pair in memory of Diane Keaton. Good grief, these movies are so stinking charming, it almost hurts your teeth.

I thought all this chatter about iOS 26 was just stuff about an dev/beta build. Because, y'know... 19 comes after 18, not 26.
I get what they're trying to do, I just think it's a fail. Way more confusing than just leaving the versioning separate for their various OSes
