I usually write up a 2024 thankful list every year. I've seen a few times people complaining about these kinds of lists, but I'm gonna do it anyway. I think it's a good mental exercise. These are in no particular order. Sorry if this is annoying.

I switched from Spotify to Tidal in October, so when I got their version of "Wrapped" its very clearly warped.

Most people do not realize that California got electricity from coal in 2025.

Got.

As of last week, it is past tense. Finally, finally.

We are so far behind but we are moving forward thanks to so many people who never give up.
Congratulations to @billcorcoran.bsky.social @evangillespie.bsky.social and many more on the Beyond Coal Campaign who made the end of coal in California a reality this week.

Check out the story from @sammyroth.bsky.social
Ding dong, coal is dead
At least in California.

Game is fun, but not quite as good as "Shredder's Revenge" in its current form.
Pros: Well animated, character chatter is nice, variety in roster
Cons: lack of scaling for multi player means its kinda easy with 3+ people, wish each character unlocked more moves when leveling.

Imagine showing a petrol engine to someone who had only known electric vehicles, and trying to convince them to switch to petrol. No-one would choose the dirty, noisy, less efficient, more expensive vehicle. This isn't 1910, hostage to gender insecurity. We can just choose the better tech.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.
