RE: https://mastodon.social/@CatherineBabault/115499510398878275 This was the reset I needed today!

Rising queries for the search term "women" in the United States (past 24 hours). 🫩 #misogyny

I told my 10-year-old about the NYTimes "did women ruin the workplace" headline. Kid got angry; yelled, "I hate sexism!" And gave me a really good hug.

Go fuck yourselves, NYT.

Bonjour les Mammouths ! #fleuristonfil

@kaliagainstallodds @kzeta Sure, but hod design helped. #mamdani's campaign was like #catherineconnolly's campaign: ahead in every ingredient except money.

@kzeta The #Mamdani campaign's wonderful visual design had some similarities with the bold simplicity of the brilliant visuals of #CatherineConnolly's successful campaign for President of Ireland. #Aras25 This was the work of 26yo #AnnaCassidy […] [Original post on mastodon.ie]

blue & orange are the colors of New York City but he subverted them: it’s more orange with the blue underscoring it. though the orange in the NYC refers to our colonial Dutch past, for the Mamdani followers ―many of whom are Zoomers of African, Middle Eastern and Indian ascendancy― that orange […]

Okay, I know the really important thing is the *content* of his politics, but can we just talk for a moment about the amazing typography and striking use of color in Mamdani's campaign? I keep lingering on photographs of his victory speech. The visual effect […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

The moon was spectacular tonight. #supermoon #moonrise #urbanbeauty

Something about today reminded me of this fabulous pink-tinged rainbow over Yosemite. #joyscrolling #naturephotography #californiadreaming

#braille on my county’s #ivoted stickers!

I’m trying to figure out if I should temper my excitement tonight but I feel like…this has been the most crushing, exhausting year. I’m just gonna be happy. This rocks.

"Zohran Mamdani wins NYC mayor’s race, capping a stunning ascent: In a victory for the Democratic party’s progressive wing, Mamdani defeated former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa." (that's a proper headline) "The contest drove the biggest turnout in a mayoral race in more than […]

like five minutes after the polls closed, maybe less. don't think it's going to be close.

Dropped off my ballot with 2 hours to spare 😅, but: #ivoted. #sanfrancisco #california #uspol

Brushing my kid's hair this morning was. not. fun. #macromonday #monochromemonday #Fotomontag

I’m feeling refreshed, inspired by the seascape that surrounds me and ready to create this week. This is an old photo from one of those days when the Gulf is so clear, it looks like a swimming pool. I’ll be ending the week with a workshop for #ceramics students at St. John’s River State College.

#3goodthings 1. I found the pinch-pot cup my kid made! I had taken it into the studio to glaze and fire about 2 months ago and I've been looking for it ever since. (I had nearly given up on finding it.) 2. Had a lovely family dinner at a local pizza place. 🍕 3. Relaxing in clean linen sheets. 🪻

Cutest trick’or’treater tonight was the little girl in the princess costume who came as we were getting to the bottom of our bowl. “How many pieces?” she asked quietly. “Just one. We’re running out and there’s still a lot of kids.” She looks at us with an earnest expression “Do you want some of […]

My 10-year-old: "What's a brothel?" Me: "A – what!?" 10-year-old: "A brothel! Is that a place where they sell broth?" 😅 😂

My kid's elementary class created the school's award-winning pumpkin this year, decorating it to look like Derpy and Sussie from K-Pop Demon Hunters. It's kind of amazing what they did on their own #halloween #pumpkin #korea #southKorea #kpop #kpop_demon_hunters

RE: https://mastodon.social/@rands/115469530707554074 I don't know if this is referencing something specific, but it's solid management advice in general (and especially when you anticipate issues ahead). So many managers try to "shield" their teams. That's not really doing them any favors.

NYC the time to vote is running out. It’s not a done deal at all. Pay attention.

@hacks4pancakes yup this is why several people, some historians, advised people to keep a diary or a list of things they think will never change, or that they would never do, in trump's first term it feels far more pressing now to do those things, and […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

Hey, so as a veteran and incident responder I need to warn you to pay attention to something in America. The human brain is resilient. While you’re watching kids get dragged away from the parents and people being beaten in the streets, you’re accumulating trauma but also being desensitized.

If you didn't have to worry about how much it pays (and after an appropriate amount of time to recover from burnout), what would you do with your time?

They sky is dark grey. The sun and the light feels far away. Good thing that blue tits and yellow leaves exists.

#texturetuesday #urbanwildlife A neighborhood crow dropped this walnut from my neighbor's tree, in an attempt to crack the shell. When I returned to the same spot later, the walnut was gone.
