@GossiTheDog What's the link where the full text of this screenshot comes from?

@tek I once got shunted to training for investigating one of the tracking URLs in the email headers with curl. Apparently it was unique to me.

Please enjoy my dog in the slightly too small cat bed for some reason. #dogs

@tek What are you reading?

I'm old enough to remember when Russia bought a nine-year-old LiveJournal to identify and stifle local dissenters who were using the platform to mobilize. The whole Twitter thing happened before and it'll happen again, over and over again until we fucking learn.

@jimcarroll To be fair, the rest of my week is *also* filled with undocumented Node and Ruby platform updates, so maybe it just blended in with the rest of the noise

@jimcarroll I'm in the beta2 and don't remember any major issues

@jimcarroll What happened? (If its in a previous post just let me know)

@jimcarroll Received

My daughter volunteered to help with my wife’s #GOTV postcards. US folks: Don’t forget to do your part the next two weeks by encouraging your friends and family! Check for opportunities with your local campaign, or DM me if you need some help connecting. #election2024 #harris #vote

@mconley That's a lot of post-its that just say "ADHD"

If you're reading this and have a cool personal web site, reply with the link and I will add you my linkroll on vees.net just like in the old days.

@thomasfuchs Press down or press in?
