Thanks to people like you, this year we’ve made a hard world a little gentler
We delivered menstrual products to 5,000 women in Gaza. We distributed 1,110+ HRT kits to people across the US. We helped 250 families survive after the LA fires
Your donations helped do that. distributeaid.org/donate/

All my storage hard drives are roughly the same age, which feels very much like having multiple pets who are the same age as each other.
Future heartbreak is inevitable, but it's all gonna land at roughly the same time and with the worst possible timing.

Internet hivemind: y'all got any recommendations/big feelings about WiFi SIM routers?
Trying to get internet set up in a weird space where SIM is likely the best approach and would love to piggyback on your research if you've already had to do this.

Build a tram everywhere. Build commuter rail for every medium city. Make intercity travel that doesn't go via London non-shit. Improve tourist economies (and perhaps more than tourism?) by making rail trips to the seaside cheap, easy and fast with trains.

sheesh, the only thing worse than getting kicked out of the polycule is finding out via jira ticket 😣

Good morning Kimberly! =^uwu^=;;
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble logging into Jellyfin! It looks like your SSO account was indeed deactivated on 2025 Dec 15.
According to our records,
1. On or about 2025 Nov 15, you were broken up with by ___, who noted this as a “final break” on vis event report sheet. I’m also seeing that Ve ticked the “Unilateral” box, meaning it isn’t contestable.
2. Our Salesforce shows you aren’t close to any other polycule members
Unfortunately, our solo-poly access policy doesn’t allow us to extend resources to unpartnered members after the 30 day grace period following your break. This includes entertainment resources (Jellyfin / *darr / nzbget / Pornhub for Enterprise™ seat), as well as O365™, Adobe CC™, and shell access on the Nix clusters. We’re so sorry for your loss, cutie!! 😭💜
If you have any questions, you can reply to this email to generate another ticket, or you can contact zzzoeee@ from our Partner Infra team (note: three Zs and three Es in their LDAP, we have a lot of Zoes here!)

I'm a longtime Firefox user who has worked at both the Mozilla corporation and foundation. But I tried out @vivaldi.com last week when I needed a Chromium based browser for a task and have found myself using it more and more.

Remembering the time a primate keeper at the zoo heard me say I'm afraid of monkeys and she told me about how the chimps will sometimes try and sneak sticks into the indoor enclosure to sharpen the use to try and stab the keepers through the bars.
Delightfully terrifying bias confirmation.

Language learner friends: I've started using LangRead for single word click-to-translate lookups for reading support and love how useful the export function is. I can import the words I've just looked up while reading to Anki/Clozemaster to actually learn them.

Testing out Vivaldi for when I need to use a Chromium based browser and so far, really impressed.
✅ All the optional setup gubbins on setup where tabbed off by default
✅ Default search is privacy friendly
✅ Pink theme available
✅ No AI nonsense I didn't ask for and don't want

My (beloved, long suffering) Indonesian tutor just banned me from applying personal pronouns to abstract concepts, things or animals* until I'm more fluent, because saying things like "I love her" about a cute cake sounds weird at my level 🥲
*yes, even if I love them
