I keep this Polaroid on my fridge as proof that I've done impossible things before.

Beauty is just erosion that learned how to wait.
A scenic landscape featuring the striking sandstone formations of Zion National Park in Utah. Light-colored, striated cliffs rise on either side of a lush green valley dotted with pine trees and shrubs. The sky above is filled with scattered clouds, casting a soft, diffused light over the rugged terrain

When it rains in Phoenix, you can immediately tell who lives here year-round and who’s visiting.

Locals step outside, fold their arms, and start aura farming as the raindrops fall.

Wide-angle view of a desert highway curving through Monument Valley under a vivid blue sky. Towering red rock mesas and buttes rise in the distance, framed by billowing white clouds. The scene captures the vast, open landscape of the American Southwest on a bright summer day.

This is by far the most sensible take ever since all this mess started.

Glad there are still some people capable making the difference between unsubstantiated conspiracy theories and proper reporting of facts.

Thank you ❤️

Ruby community: Look, we can be angry about what's happening, we can raise our complaints, but under no circumstances should anyone _ever_ harass someone's families, coworkers, or friends.

That is completely unacceptable, and wholly against the ethos of the language. We must do better.

A nighttime canal scene in Amsterdam shows tall, narrow historic houses lined up along the water, their windows glowing with warm and colorful lights. Reflections shimmer on the canal surface as boats move across, one brightly lit with green and purple hues. The sky is dark, emphasizing the illuminated architecture and vibrant atmosphere.

How it feels to be a Ruby content creator rn...
A minimalist meme-style cartoon. On the left, a tall stick figure with red pants labeled “Ruby Community” pokes with a stick while saying, “C’mon, do something…”. On the right, a simple stick figure labeled “Podcaster” looks blank-faced while holding a grenade in one hand and a microphone in the other.
