It's particularly weird that cyberpunk is presented as this highly awesome technologically augmented human society, when really cyberpunk is about the increased gap between the masses and the elite. With the elite using technology to control, oppress and observe the masses under the guise of technology being useful.
Hot EPA take
Twenty year olds back in the day looked forty because they were surrounded by secondhand smoke, exhaust from huge ineffecient cars, and all kinds of industrial pollutants their entire lives.

@melissasage Ok, so.
Flask-- It's the simplest framework for turning Python code into answering web requests, without doing a lot of repetitive stuff that just implements the shared guts of all web servers.
Best if: you have a medium-to-heavy weight app you want to implement, particularly one that isn't organized like a typical web site.
Maybe don't use it if: your site is very small and doesn't need much customization OR very large and needs much organisational support
Fighting Isabelle in Smash Brothers over and over again to take out my anger
Continue to be troubled that I look like the kind of person that would stand on a Columbus Day float, rather than the kind of person who would travel back in time to assassinate the Catholic monarchs of Castile and Aragon.

🚨🚨The Pro-Vax pin is being rereleased y'all! 🚨🚨
https://store.dftba.com/collections/mcelroy/products/pro-vax-enamel-pin
See below for a picture of the original version; the rerelease appears to have silver accents rather than gold, but looks otherwise identical.
Additionally, sales of this version will benefit the Immunization Action Coalition, a vaccine education non-profit. 😊
Idea: Screen saver that is a music visualizer, in 2019

"I think we’ll be cushioned by amazing technological development and sitting on Salvation Army furniture. Everything else will be crumbling. Government surveillance becomes inevitable because there’s this dilemma when you have an increase in information storage. A lot of it is for your convenience – but as more information gets on file it’s bound to be misused." ~ David Byrne in 1979

@melissasage It's Iggy, it's always been Iggy. As a small child, I fell in love with this beautiful lizard with a magic wand.

@cambrian_era any way to increase the number of options in polls? maybe to like, 10 max, or at least 7 so i can get every koopaling in it
@melissasage Which bleeds into the problems with CSS and Javascript, and how we have these painful JS frameworks that allow you to build websites in code even if it's clumsy and uses tons of memory and introduces exploits that don't need to be there
@melissasage I feel like a lot of problems with HTML are due to the wrong kind of nerd looking at it and going, "Why can't I program with this??" because they don't know what markup is for or design is
I used to know a white drummer who insisted rap wasn't REAL music, because all it had was lyrics and a beat.
Imagine being so racist that you're a drummer who hates percussion and considers it unmusical.
