Check out Climate.us, a new website created by former employees of NOAA, who worked on Climate.gov until they were laid off last year as part of the heinous DOGE cutbacks.
"The website features Climate.gov's 15-year collection of climate news and stories, expert blogs, visual status reports on key climate indicators, maps and data pathways, climate literacy resources, classroom materials, and restored access to the 5th National Climate Assessment."

“This, I believe, is what we truly lack in today’s society. Crafts are a vehicle through which we can think, through which we can contemplate, and through which we can be.”
This is a toot about #ai

Words from ‘Craeft’ by Alexander Langlands
“Factory manufacturing robs us of a special something: contemplation. Not of life, of love, of the big ‘Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?’ But, in the case of the drystone waller who holds apparently identical stones in each hand, the simple cognitive contemplation between one stone and another. Which to use? How to work it? Where to strike? - thoughts that exercise the mind in silence and solitude.

Taking back your digital sovereignty involves sacrifice. If someone tells you it doesn't, they're uninformed or lying.
I think that sacrifice is worth it. Coping with jank makes us more resilient. But it's not easy and it's dishonest to suggest otherwise.
I’m trying to get better at faces and my nana guilted me into drawing her. So much pressure! I’m proud with how it turned out even though it’s not a perfect likeness. My favorite part was noticing how my nana’s wrinkles show a life time of smile and laughter (though I don’t think I captured that very well)
this is the way

Small businesses, please stop using corporate social media as your only online presence.
I’d happily visit a website that looks like it was designed in the 1990s if it meant I could actually scroll down and see your address, hours of operation, etc.
It doesn’t have to be pretty, just functional.
It would be really helpful if you also included common allergens for your food and drinks (if relevant) and how accessible your location is for disabled folks.

I try to remember that most people know about as much about politics as I know about basketball.
For example I am aware that the Knicks are a basketball team of NYC and they are doing a good job in the Very Big Game and it's exciting.
I don't know when the next game is or who they are playing (Is it the Bulls? They have that guy number 23 right? with the shoes?)
This is bad. If you like basketball you are disgusted. I need to "do better."
Well that's most people and political races.
