i loved learning and using Elixir, Phoenix, and Liveview at my previous job...

however it is hard being a front-end dev hopeful and not knowing React 🫠

anyone know any good beginner tutorials? (preferable free i'm unemployed after all)

truly gorgeous art but the text desperately needed a once over.

tons of rookie mistakes with the formatting, type faces, and general print wonkiness.
picked up the most beautiful supplement yet for OSE - Ballad of Oraed

the art is 100000/10

so frustrating to see accessibility pushed to the side while private corporations profit from public spaces
I came across *the* example I have been hammering with these food delivery robots.

A man with a mobility aid is forced to step aside because there is not room for him because the robot will not make room for a person (esp. those with a mobility aid who need addditional room)

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

The proposed Chicago city budget has a $5 million line item for a ShotSpotter replacement. Abandoning this failed pursuit would free up the funds needed to maintain 2025 funding levels at our city libraries, which would still leave the libraries underfunded but would avoid disastrous proposed cuts.

Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by Kylie Lee Baker

this book was frustrating (tw sinophobia), full of lore, and gory as hell. highly recommend!

don’t forget to burn your joss paper in the 7th month folks.
