What is the lifespan of software? What if you make software that's silly and full of whimsy? Will people remember it? Anyway, here's a video someone recently posted of “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan performed through the composer feature in Mario Paint, a game released on Super Nintendo in 1992

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Prices are soaring, your 401k is in the tank, Social Security phone lines are hours long.

Instead of addressing any of that – this administration is picking a fight with Denmark.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

Gender equality doesn’t just 'happen.'

Women’s rights must be fought for and protected.

Our responsibility is clear.

To lead by example and create a world where opportunities are fair for all.

Not just today, but every single day.

you do not owe any loyalty to politicians, especially ones that don’t do their jobs to the full extent.

Democrat: if elected I will represent and protect all Americans

Republican: if elected I will only represent my voters and harm everyone else

Democrat voters: if our guy loses we’re fucked.

Republican voter: either way I’m covered.

In this current hellscape, the only control I have is in where I spend my time, attention & money. If a company has cowered and rolled back DEI or otherwise kissed the ring for this administration, I’m out. #DEI #Boycott

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.”

I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

I've been reading exclusively Black American writers for US Black History Month and wanted to share some all-time favourites from US/CAN authors

Perfect to pick up now or anytime, these stories and authors are to be read year-round

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

That starts with banning super PAC donations in Dem primaries.

There’s no way the party can speak for the majority of working people in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.
