Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A monochrome image of a city walkway lined with trees and benches. The path is paved and flanked by modern buildings with large glass windows. Two people sit on a bench in the foreground, while others walk or stand further down the path. Each tree is planted in a rectangular plot filled with white stones. The photo has a grainy texture, suggesting it was taken with film or edited for a vintage look. The scene feels peaceful and urban, with a balance o…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A moody black-and-white photo of an urban scene. In the foreground, a tall streetlight stands beside bare tree branches that stretch across the frame. Two tall buildings rise in the background, one partially obscured and the other featuring a triangular architectural element at its peak. The sky is overcast or foggy, creating a somber, atmospheric tone. The contrast between the natural branches and rigid buildings adds visual tension and depth. 中文替代文…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A striking abstract sculpture made of stone stands outdoors in a modern urban setting. The sculpture features interlocking curved and rectangular shapes with ribbed textures, forming a complex geometric design. It rests on a circular base covered in white pebbles. Surrounding the sculpture are trees and sleek buildings, suggesting a public art installation. The interplay of shapes and textures invites interpretation, evoking thoughts of movement, bala…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photo of a quiet outdoor patio. Several wireframe chairs and a matching table sit on a grassy surface.

Behind the seating area is a modern building with large glass panels and vertical blinds, reflecting soft light. The composition is minimalistic, with clean lines and a mid-century modern aesthetic. Shadows from the furniture and bui…

I don't think I'm ever going to enjoy gifts.
I can get why people would give them to children. After all, children don't have their own budget. However, I'm talking about occasional gifts, not a new toy every second week, because "we must outcompete the other grandparents". But to adults?
Once I've heard that you should gift people with what they won't buy themselves. Well, that's won't work for me. I'm a minimalist. If I don't need something, I don't want to have it. Unnecessary junk is only emotional burden to me.
I can get why you'd enjoy something handmade. But something people bought? If I need something, I can buy it myself, when I need it. And I definitely don't need people to prove to me that they never cared to learn who I am, and just buy whatever they like or whatever is "fashionable"; which usually means exactly the opposite of what I'd prefer (i.e. something minimalistic). Or even worse, I don't need people manipulating me through gifts.
Sweets? Besides my diabetes, I don't really enjoy expensive shit that people generally buy because it's what's advertised. For the money they waste on it, I'd buy three times as much sweets I'd actually enjoy.
Gift cards? Oh yes, "you aren't supposed to give money, so let's just give the equivalent of money that's actually worth less than money". Actual money? And here we reach the true nonsense; we exchange the same amount of money, so it's just pointless gesture. Unless one of us gives less money…
What I'd really like, as a gift? Maybe that people would finally bother accepting me as who I am. The absolute minimum of caring that I hate consumerism, and not fueling it "for me".

An excellent summary here via @… about how the structures of our civil society have failed to stop ICE from becoming Trump’s Brownshirts.
The one thing the piece omits: someone •is• stopping ICE. It’s the citizens filling the streets, honking and shouting and filming and generally harassing ICE, doing the work our government has failed to do. If it were not for that response being so widespread, sustained, and forceful, we’d be in far worse place right now. mastodon.social/@AnnaAnthro/11

FWIW, when people go on about “sportsball”, to me that sounds snotty and condescending and, well, a bit rude: “I ostentatiously don’t care about a thing you do and wish it didn’t exist.”
Not saying you’re not within your rights to feel that and say that. I have exactly those feelings about certain forms of music and religion and politics.
Just be aware that sometimes it doesn’t land well.

Elizabeth Warren here — Lt. Gov Peggy Flanagan told me I could reach out, because this is important. 
Peggy is the partner I need to get things done in the Senate,
that’s why I have officially endorsed her campaign.
I know she will be a champion for Minnesotans in Congress. 
Can you please pitch in $5 or anything you can to help power her campaign?
I’ll explain more below about why this is such a critical race.

Peggy Flanagan for Minnesota | Democrat for U.S. Senate
Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan's ready to take our Minnesota values to D.C. — to fight to rebuild the middle class, protect our rights, and hold the extremist billionaires trying to run off with our country accountable. If elected, she’ll be the first Native American woman to ever serve in the U.S. Senate. Will you join us in this Minnesotan-powered campaign?
