@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @grumpasaurus@infosec.exchange simply put them directly into my mouth. I’ve been training my whole life for this
my personal line:
having bandcamp friday on mayday is an intentional choice! (it doesn't happen every month). buy nothing!
bandcamp are union busters

even if funds are a pass-through to musicians without them taking a cut today, it's a promotional tool for the company. there are other ways and days to directly support artists.

@aparrish but allison, as a web developer I want to know who I'm developing for because otherwise I'd have no source of empathy or understanding of the human condition

@anildash@me.dm it's timely. I was just talking about this yesterday at lunch with some old coworkers, all of whom are intending to leave the industry (some faster than others). I'm not sure I'm as optimistic as you are about the possibility of change (focusing mainly on the "this too shall pass"), but I appreciate the acknowledgement of how many are feeling (felt it physically) and some concrete advice about how to move through it

@Hierarchy@mastodon.social @anildash@me.dm one becoming social worker, one librarian/archivist, one tbd but probably a contractor (construction)

@dansinker jose is so great. I hadn’t heard this speech, and it sums up why I’m moving into librarianship. thanks for sharing

@dansinker the county history museum has really great photos of the interurban lines downtown around this time. such a different small city midwestern world

@tamigraph@mastodon.social I think this is a really nice way of stating what I’ve felt and have been seeing a lot of others grapple with. it’s freeing and exciting, but also takes some time to shed the ways people have been conditioned to engage with large social platforms
Replying to
@tamigraph@mastodon.social I also hope folks who have been around for here for a bit and have different posting norms (myself included) give people grace as they figure it out that transition
Replying to
@tamigraph@mastodon.social that's incredibly kind! I'm so happy to see so many folks moving networks over here. it's really exciting and I can't wait to see what happens
oooh excited to see a new newsroom serving the tenderloin in SF!
https://www.tlvoice.org/about/
it'll be published as a zine, distributed by hand, with material also online. email list signup is here: https://www.tlvoice.org/about/#/portal/signup
nice resilient transportation system you have there, shame if anything totally predictable happened to it
have tech founders ever read another book
it's cool to read academic papers referencing links on the internet from before the w3c and consistent standards existed (1994), and to be like hey my team keeps those things accessible on the open web

happy most beautiful SF sunset of the year to all those who observe
legal arguments aren’t moral arguments
doing a road trip soon from kansas city to albuquerque, with a lot of time to do it (full week)
