Weird how all the fired cabinet members have been women, no? Wait, did i say "weird?" I meant "entirely predictable because we keep trying to tell you that your proximity to abusive, misogynistic whiteness will not protect you from it & will in fact make you an easier target." THAT'S what i meant.

I am still not a (bird) lawyer, but this tracks: “The ADA Deadline Doesn’t Matter. Here’s What Does.” silktide.com/blog/the-ada... I’ve been making variations on these points to clients since the *last century*. #accessibility #a11y

,this is a one-person rumor that also doesn’t match reality of USA nuclear weapons authority & execution. There are no nuclear codes for Trump to access in sense used in rumor & if Trump wants to nuke Iran then we’re almost certainly nuking Iran. Claimed events are vague & dissonant w/set-up.

Seems fine!

Pulitzer-worthy reporting here from Minnesota immigrant news @sahanjournal.bsky.social. 70+ children detained during Operation MetroSurge. 30 sent to Dilley. Two dozen held >20 days, a Flores violation. 7 still detained as of March 10. ~20 have been deported. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...

2 days ago my maga neighbour was like "if the covid vax is so good how come you get it every year" so I made a super sad face and dropped my voice and confessed that I was addicted to vaccines and wife is not happy with me because I have been expressly told to stop winding him up but HOW TO RESIST

Trust me, disabled people feel this hostility acutely.

Oh for fuck's sake. Dude is blocking via list and it's not just petty, it'll break functionality? Dear bluesky staff: SEPARATE YOUR PERSONAL AND PRO ACCOUNTS.

Everyone would be a lot happier if a lot of people who think they’re Democrats admitted they were Republicans

Let me channel my inner northern Minnesotan after getting a free little plant for Earth Day from the office complex... ahem. "Oh fer cute!" Picture to come later once I have replanted it at home.

Don't mind me wanting everything spite based.

Every time this tailor posts a photo of their workspace, it looks like their dog is a tailor and he's showing off the garments he made. IG z.o.e.y.a.t.e.s

Seriously?!? This is an edge piece in a puzzle I'm doing. It is fricken diabolical.

This is your reminder, update the alt text, aria, and sr-only stuff too. This is why I love using native HTML elements instead of aria or sr-only, less things to forget to update. This reminder brought to you by me, beating my head on my desk while screaming to the accessibility gods twice today.

Thanks to Julia for her thoughtful piece on the end of SELF Magazine, with its longform, conversational articles about women's health. Here's why it's such a shame to see it go: 🧵

Like, we aren’t getting posts about destroying a civilization and that probably means something.

This reminds me of a “multistakeholder convening” I was invited to years ago, intended the solve the problem of “lack of trust in tech.” When I suggested the real problem was that the tech industry wasn’t trustworthy, the bros looked at me like I had three heads.

Welcome to GATTACA.

You know what would bring more families to want to spend more time downtown? PUBLIC FUCKING BATHROOMS AND PLACES TO SIT

minneapolis city planners didn't care about playgrounds downtown when they tore down the loring greenway playground with no plans to replace it

“I used AI to combine the data from two excel lists and then send emails to people who were on one list but not another. Saved me so much time.” My brother in academia, you just fucking discovered mail merge. Welcome to early nineties computing.

My great grandma told me about surviving tetanus when she was a young teen. She spent two weeks being alone in total darkness because any light, touch or sound was painful and caused spasms. Fuck anyone who forces children to go through what my great grandma did.

On this date, 112 years ago, members of the Colorado National Guard and private security opened fire on striking miners and their families at Ludlow, Colorado, in the southeast of the state. 21 people were killed, mostly women and children. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludlow_...

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

“not all men” “not all cis people” “not all straights” “not all white people” “not all americans” until the rest of us are stopping it IT IS ALL OF US

As a former StoryCorps facilitator, this is fucking disgusting. End the project already, Dave. You created a good model: you encouraged people to sit and do oral history for 20 yrs. Turning StoryCorps into a surveillance capitalism nightmare is not worth the money to keep the project going.

Snack bag packed. Craft bag packed. Just need to shower and get dressed for Crafternoon!!!

I fear media literacy is dead

My former neighbor, who lost his home after his landlord stopped taking rental assistance from the VA, was murdered last week after someone tried to steal the van he lives in: www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne... Nelson was a good man. There will be a memorial tonight. DM me if you would like to attend.

Sure my grandparents used to say it would be three snows after the first robin. But come on, this is getting ridiculous. #MSPfeed

Good night Bluesky. Together is the only way we build liveable todays and tomorrows.

Hey folks! I'm selling my tiny house, it's all prepped and ready for someone new to love it as much as I did. If you're interested, please reach out, I'll leave DMs open for a while! Happy to answer any questions, and I've got a more detailed sales flyer I can share upon request.

Don't mind me researching magnesium supplements for sleep and sore muscles only to learn that my famotidine can cause low magnesium. Hot tip, don't get cancer because managing all the prescriptions and supplements afterwards SUCKS.

This is indeed similar to what he said to us (not his clerks) in 2028 or so. He said everyone wanted him to retire so he wasn’t gonna do it because he wanted to make them mad.

Everyone just takes the week off once they realize they have 6 medical appointments and just for giggles adds a 7th? Right? Anyway, in a month I have a week off for medical appointments and whatever shenanigans I want to do.

“Take a moment to think before you dive in. That’s the best advice for Google Photos users, as the company confirms its latest update can scan all your photos to “use actual images of you and your loved ones” in AI image generation.” www.forbes.com/sites/zakdof...

fucking yikes. all trans folks & allies, this is absurd. "According to the lawsuit, Eversole claimed that if an “openly” trans woman were noticed, it could “damage MSG’s reputation.” The first former employee adds that they were told the very sight of Richards made the Garden brass uncomfortable."

texts with the Klobuchar campaign this morning

RIP Iris Long. Sarah Schulman's interview with her for the ACT UP Oral History Project is definitely worth watching... www.actuporalhistory.org/numerical-in...

Every article like this is trash, mealy-mouthed cowardice. They talk of "lesser known stories" and how the effort to tell them is "under pressure."🤡 They don't say what is plain to see: "Racist people don't like Black stories being told, and so make active efforts to erase them from history."

This is my point exactly. You can mentor junior devs, they feel shame for taking down prod and thus won't do it again in the same way, they are needed to eventually replace senior devs. You need the weird one off experiences so when they happen at a new company you can go "Oh yeah, I know this!"

Ok well as usual I was finding Erin’s thread informative and infuriating (at the people who did/enabled the stealing she’s working against). Then this picture … amazing.

Just gonna say that one thing all the people who never came to save us better get ready for: we connected all across this damn country, and we're not going to stop taking care of each other. so glad to have these folks in my network now. 💓

you’d really think an industry pretty openly saying “we intend to make most of humanity useless” would actually get more backlash

This story is crazy! The Jim Dolan had a Knicks fan obsessively monitored at games just because she was trans.

I thought this shit sounded familiar!

this is a great example of a business reacting to political/corporate shifts as though they are populist shifts. they did correctly read the signs of a nationwide rollback on LGBTQ rights! they just failed to account for how many people are FUCKING FURIOUS about that and will fight you over it
