With every passing day I better understand the mothers in Victorian novels who stay in their bedrooms with the curtains closed and complain vaguely about their “nerves.”

Wasn’t there some woman from California who was running for something who told us this was going to happen
President-elect Trump and his allies disavowed the conservative Project 2025 during the election.
Now, his transition team is turning to Project 2025 to help staff the next administration, sources tell @nbcnews.com.

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President.
It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me.
Dammit, America. 😞

My high schooler had to pick a topic for a medical ethics essay and he chose abortion. This should go over well in Utah.

I figured out a fast way to follow folks back! If you like this post, I can bring up the list of everyone who liked it and follow back with one click. So like this post, but remember that there’s limits on follow backs. But I’ll do my level best!

While I'm definitely worried about the negative impacts of the next administration, I'm more worried about the cover-up of the impact data. Recall that Trump did everything he could to hide COVID data.

I’m pretty sure that if some CEO got fired from his job & on his way out he told a mob of crazies to show up with zip ties, flag poles and tasers and to bash in the windows & smear poop on the walls, that he wouldn’t get hired back a few years later, but what the hell do I know.

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Scared the shit out of one of my junior designers the other day by telling her we used to try and keep webpages under 25kb.
Writing tight, efficient code used to be the norm before memory and storage became cheap. Glad people are starting to pay attention to this.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.
I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Had a tech bro tell me this morning that I need to go away and learn about the Trust Thermocline, to understand why emotive products like Twitter fail slowly then suddenly.
I pointed out I am fully aware of the Trust Thermocline. On account of being the chap who created it
