“Are the arts important?” Humanity practiced them long before they had use for science and will practice them long after math is gone. Is the dawn important? Is dusk?

I’m really glad we finally figured out how to reliably calculate developer productivity

The Episcopal Church has put together a very impressive toolkit for protesting, including tips for clergy in particular. Truly inspiring. This is how Christians ought to be engaging the moment. www.episcopalchurch.org/protesting-f...

So, *Latinas* for Trump is a group that exists? You really can be anything you want to be in America

Servo!

I’m going to be honest, the single best advice I would give people starting out in their career, the thing that probably helped me the most in my life, was simply to show up for things if you had the time. Some foundational experiences in my career occurred just because I went to advertised events.

my 65 year old dad started painting a couple years ago and now sometimes I get really lovely messages like this

Happy birthday to Lynda Boyd, born on this day in 1965 in Vancouver! Her many acting roles include Nora in Final Destination 2, Darlene on Falcon Beach, Rose on Republic of Doyle, Randy in Tin Star and Lily in Virgin River. She is a Gemini Award nominee.

Friendly reminder that making bad art is still a good thing

My only thoughts about that lady.

I also have no products and no revenue, I'm most of the way there

YONGE. #Toronto #Subway #Signage #Photography

(This is the list, not sure why that didn’t come through.) The thing to keep in mind — Big Tech doesn’t define the internet. There is *still* a healthy, thriving independent internet of creators, just like there are stores beyond Walmart and restaurants beyond McDonald’s. Find them, support them.

A reminder — there are *millions* of social sites on the internet, like Storygraph for your reading and Ravelry for your knitting, etc. It’s only the biggest, run by the extremist fascists, that do these terrible things. Don’t define the internet by a handful of apps run by 5 sociopaths.

Still not 100% sure these “computers” are going to work out for humanity

Care is a necessary methodology if we are to survive.

Abstract No. 4

Imagine reading 'olive oil' as an interest and not immediately scheduling an interview for several followup questions

[while sipping a honey vanilla chamomile tea and eating a lovely banana bread] i hope they burn in hell

Black Lives Matter. Even in Trinidad & Venezuela.

There are three feet of snow on the ground and it feels like minus a million but spring always returns, friends. #BloomScrolling

Hey #Toronto, there's a vigil for Alex #Pretti and all ICE victims today at 5pm, across from the U.S. consulate.

nazis don't deserve art.

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the six million Jewish lives — and the millions of others — senselessly murdered by the Nazi regime. We remember not only the unimaginable loss, but the warning history leaves us.

Winters are hard

as we celebrate the most sacred holiday in the calendar I just want to let everyone know that every small boulder is just a large boulder the size of a small boulder please use caution.

"There's not a queer space in barbecue yet, so let's create one."

Please go ahead and celebrate your victories today, even small ones

It's weird how after every good thing/gain (even if we don't call it a victory) people circle up to insist we shouldn't celebrate. Celebrating is not how people give up, in my experience; believing we can't win, never win, and have no power is (with a side of joylessness).

Here is a thread about tiny discrepancies, the marvelous predictive power of Quantum Electrodynamics, and the sort of immigrant success story that the current administration is doing everything in their power to eliminate. 🧪 ⚛️

“It Will Open Smarch 37th”

"How will you help restore a culture of life in the midst of death?" he says as he tells Congress to defund ICE.

It’s always funny when palantir employees discover that they work at palantir

King

This is the GM firing an assistant coach and hoping that will be the end of the questions, except with fascism.

i wrote about mothership.blog for @theguardian.com today by the way. thanks so much to @mackeza.bsky.social for the opportunity to tell more people about mothership and what we are doing with the site <3 www.theguardian.com/games/2026/j...

Por mucho que me guste, la escultura se me da fatal. Pero al menos hice en un día lo que no había podido en dos meses... Colocar parte de la arcilla. Haré un fauno/satiro porque me gustan muchos

LMAO this is not what a data center power outage would do

🎵bop it🎵 🎵spin it🎵 🎵pull it🎵 🎵bite it- wait thats not one of the- YOWWW

new art just dropped 👀 [ #art #illustration #portrait ]

Shoutout to all the people in Minnesota today, between the weather and social upheaval, take care

France (or at least its principal mathematical society) pulling out of the ICM in the U.S. - how long before the rest of Europe follows suit? #mathsky

I can't do anything about so many problems. But my neighbors are elderly. And I can clear the snow off of their sidewalk while it's still mostly powder.

Unironically yes

Rather proud of making this drawing showing volume for cylinders (including prisms).

Looks like today is officially the snowiest day in Toronto history, breaking the record set in 1965. It will be some time before we know if climate change can be attributed to this event: But here’s what I do know for sure:
