I’ve found my next spot - at Temporal, where I’m delighted to be leading community outreach on @webchick.bsky.social’s team.

I wanted my next role to continue the pattern of working with folks I have a lot of respect for in the ecosystem, on technologies that users actually enjoy <3

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...
Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

+1 on this recc! Something I've been incorporating into my self-care and my relationship with technology is the concept of pleasure-seeking. The wire mother of the digital age hijacks your dopamine without providing tangible reward. You'll struggle to reject it unless you find better pleasure.

Look if the government wants to send more bread based on false rumors I ain’t gonna stop em
feynudibranch.bsky.social
This is FALSE, I was at an entire event called Bread Fest today, lines were around the block, and the artisanal baked goods were plentiful
nytpitchbot.bsky.social
Things have grown so dire in Portland, Oregon that residents may soon face a shortage of artisanal baked goods, almond milk rose petal beetroot lattes, and cold brew mushroom tonic.

Trump says he authorizes Hegseth to deploy the military to Portland, which he lyingly calls "war ravaged," and says he is authorizing "full force."

At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

New 💅 based on this awesome early 18th c. English Delft (tin-enamel). The distinctive color palette of blue, red and green is called Bristol, though it was also made in London.
This vessel was found at George Washington Birthplace, and was likely used by the Washington family.

left hand holding a small sherd. Fingernails and sherd are decorated with a design of blue grid with red stars inside and green at the intersections of lines. Artifact image of sherds decorated with blue grid and red stars with green accents on a white ground. Decorated sherds and a black and white image of a complete tankard with the same checked design. Text reads, "Chinese or common shape cup with painted star and grid pattern in blue, red, and green (left). This vessel may have been made in Bristol in the early 18th century in a fashion known as Bristol blue-red-green. Whole mug with similar pattern from a private collection on right. Angelica Knoll, 18CV60, c. 1650-1770." A complete mug decorated with blue grid design with red stars inside. Top area has decorative border and reads "Union".
