Baltimore transplant, perpetually curious and often armed with stickers.
I like radioactive glass, books, pigeons, street art, and found items. I dislike mosquitoes, getting stuck behind slow walkers, pears, sun in my eyes, and fascism.

TIL that Dr. Vint Cerf, one of the "fathers of the Internet" is a deaf man. His wife is also deaf. Google him to see how much he has done in his life. It's pretty amazing.

"The people united will never be defeated." Drawing the line in the sand: Baltimore residents are in the streets refusing an illegal war, a kidnapped head of state, and a president who treats violence as a profit strategy. No coups. No oil wars. No silence.

Men have felt and will always feel entitled to control women’s bodies. We see this everywhere, from Twitter to the Supreme Court. Generative AI simply offers another vector for attempting to exert that control. A mere photo of your face online now means you can be in porn against your will.

Trump promised no “new stupid wars,” yet he’s starting one with Venezuela without congressional approval.

People can’t afford groceries and millions are losing healthcare, but this is where his focus is.

This is unconstitutional and not what the American people asked for.

Your New Year's resolution is to not be the guy who approaches a deaf person to say, "sign language is so beautiful/ I wish I knew it/everyone should learn it in school," then walks away, never to think about it again.

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.
