"The only crime that I have committed is to fearlessly defend our nation from those who seek to destroy it."

So. Falsifying business records is defending our country? I thought joining any branch of the armed forces was defending the country. Something people like Commander Bone Spurs and his buddy, Private Poopy Pants cannot understand.

Anyone out there who predominantly uses a #screenreader and wouldn't mind having an informal chat about navigation patterns on websites? Working on some concepts that need sense checking/critique.

Do boost! DMs are open if interested :)

[first day as a funeral makeup artist]

Technology is just a set of tools. In Jimmy Carter's hands, a hammer built a house for people in need. In someone else's hands, a hammer can be a weapon. The tool isn't important, the person who controls it is.

I’m realizing that growing up as a wired magazine-reading cyberpunk believerβ€” a kid who thought adbusters and the internet could save the worldβ€” and then watching as every technological miracle was turned not towards revolution or saving humanity but instead more pernicious and intractable methods of exploitation has made me uncomfortable with technological optimism. β€œassume all new technology will be used against you” β€”

I ordered a holster case for my phone from Amazon. It had to make a trip of ~75 miles, from Buena Park, CA to my office.
But I guess it wanted a little vacation and sight-seeing before it got to work.

Hello fellow humans! I’m here to document my journey in accepting myself, flaws and all. Let me know if you have any advice for self acceptance or just in general.

Let’s hope this idea doesn’t die out in less than a month :partyparrot:

#Twitter so, now that the blue bird has been sidelined in favor of some bitcoin image of a dog, shouldn’t the name of the app be adapted accordingly? Barker? Dodger? Howler? Scam?

β˜•οΈπŸ„ Good morning. You have been blessed with another day on Earth. It's an honour to see you. I've prepared a warm and delicious coffee for you. May you realize how enlightening your smile can be for you and those around you. I wish you a day of accomplishments and delight. πŸŒžπŸ€

Mums bedroom wall was a great expanse of ugly bricks, painted off-white. She hated it, hung a curtain over it, but that was a dust gatherer and not great to have near her head while she slept. So when she had a short stay in hospital, I painted her a mural. Beech tree forest sunrise. It was going to get more detail - underbrush and grasses etc, but I ran out of time and she loves it so much like this, now she doesn't want me to change anything.

SCIENCE PEOPLE: I need a researcher for my next book. If you have an astronomy and physics background, it could be you! And yes, I'm paying for the work, because I am not a monster (at least, not in that direction). Details and how to apply at the link:

Awkward phrasing "in general".
For some folks when I look at art that I have enjoyed it's like subtitles.
I'm using Orson Scott Card books, that I have more than a dozen of, to prop up the TV over the Sound Bar.

@ScottSoCal can not remember that a real father and son ever made something like this, a copy of them self.
