So excited for this!

TFW you want to befriend one of your neighbors based on their network name and because they segmented it. Going to rename mine to see if they want to play haha.

Reposting to maintain pretty campus dominance.

ALL OF THEM

Seattle guys are hot because they are going to show you some obscure Jean-Michel Jarre track from 1984.

My fave local radio station has summoned me.

It would be a morale booster.

I love that the store I purchased my office chair from could spam the living daylight out of my inbox and blow up my texts about items to buy, but like somehow could not send me tracking info or delivery confirmation. Yes I checked my comms preferences.

If you are not impressed by the picture of a Black Hole, clearly you do not understand the gravity of the situation…

The Iran war could hit a lot more than oil. Petrochemicals. Plastics. Aluminum. Global shipping. Every day the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, costs rise, inventories deplete, & supply chains tighten. And Washington is making things worse, Scott Lincicome says. https://ow.ly/np8m50YwXnF

Being a woman existing on the internet is so special. For a few years now various versions of "Keanu Reeves" and random low follower count Saudi prince accounts have been trying to add me. Also "Billy Idol". Please get real hobbies.

NEW: In the DOJ’s crusade for Washington state’s voter rolls, the department: 1) failed to properly serve their lawsuit 2) missed a critical deadline and 3) appeared to mislead the court. Now, a judge is demanding answers — and if they miss the mark, the consequences could be significant.

You know these men are bad at trails and the outdoors because anyone with any training knows you don’t leave people alone in the outdoors, ever. That is how people die.

A friend shut down his companies manufacturing operation and is moving it to Canada or Australia because they were paying tariffs 4 times on goods shipped back and forth across the Canadian border making them uncompetitive. Friend: "America is telling us it's not a predictable place to do business"

Neighborhood has a nice bagpipe situation happening again. :)

Lovely local creature alert!

If you care about secure coding and everyone should care, definitely hire her for a training.

Meeting people where they are at doesn’t mean agreeing with everything they say. Among other things, it means understanding there’s work to do to bring them along. It necessarily includes asking them to change how they think and act. And it always carries the risk of failure or rejection.

Serendipitously found a great lichen / fungi / nature account. Sharing for fellow fans.

This podcast series is an excellent journey. The social psych that influenced this disaster realIy stood out for me and of course there are themes that are haunting us today. Great for home project background dialog.

Being upset because emergency responders need to access you and or / others in....an emergency is next level dysfunction. Parking your car there is a great place for it to get broken into anyways.

This one has very much upset Facebook

It's Pi day. My father wound up in the New Yorker for this coverage of his besties, the Chudnovsky Brothers, and their early effort to compute Pi. www.newyorker.com/magazine/199...

Modern cargo bikes don't replace bicycles, they replace cars. If you haven't ridden since childhood, the capability will shock you. Groceries are the perfect gateway errand for daily mobility. The bikes are ready. We just need the infrastructure.

What if we held hands under the first 9 digits of Pi?

This is absolutely bonkers and infuriating. Must-read reporting by ProPublica.

Love that my fave local news radio is on BlueSky. :)

We bond with strangers over this. Just show up by or on the water and point out sea-life to each other. The important Orca lore and beta quickly comes to the fore. :)

These really are a treasure.

This is the first time some of them have seen snow in their lives. Which is bittersweet because they are from the snow covered high north.

Snow is happening.

It's also hard to choose the pedestrian/bicycle/public transit/density option when you may not have experienced it, it may not be available to you, it's often maligned and disparaged, and it's largely only achieved through collective effort rather than individual choice.
