“I know that thousands of gay men in Russia watched Heated Rivalry—on pirate sites, of course, because they have no legal way to watch the series. The Russian authorities would undoubtedly ban the show as LGBTQ propaganda, but most Western platforms don’t function in Russia either. As a result, Russian queer people have to break every possible law simply to live in the same world as members of their own community.”

In Putin’s Homophobic Russia, Watching ‘Heated Rivalry’ Is an Act of Rebellion and Hope
The explicit hockey romance is an enormous hit there—perhaps because its closeted Russian hero feels surprisingly true to life.

Just found out about the "take" command in Oh My Zsh, and oh my (pun intended) is it useful!
As the name suggests, it's a command that takes you where you want to be, combining multiple tools (e.g. mkdir cd) into one neat little command.
Found a nice article explaining what it does for anyone who's not familiar with it already:

My department at CSU Northridge is hiring a vertebrate functional morphologist! We've got a great EEB group, and we're looking for someone to carry forward a tradition of enriching organismal courses and community-engaged research. App review starts March 15
I'm not on the hiring committee, but happy to answer questions about the department, campus, and life in Los Angeles

I’ve had this contingent of the language police show up in my replies a few times now over the word “cosplay,” and look…
OK, I get it, I get the instinct to say “Don’t drag me into this!” and I applaud the effort to push fascists out of communities, yes to all that…
…and also we need to recognize that what ICE is doing absolutely •is• cosplay. The word means “costume play.” It refers to assembling and wearing costumes that are not necessarily functional, but show affinity for a particular subculture by reproducing characters from that subculture’s popular narratives.
ICE are cosplaying Call of Duty. That is an accurate description of what’s happening. (Listen to “Gear.”)
I make software and I make music. I don’t think either one of those things •should• be about violence. I don’t •want• them to be about violence. But both are used in the service of violence, like it or not. I shout the violence out whenever it shows up. But would be ridiculous for me to point at what Palantir does and say “That’s not software!” Unfortunately, it •is• software. To deny that would be beyond self-defeating; it would be irresponsible.
ICE •is• doing cosplay, and we hate it. It’s an insult to the cosplay subculture. It is an insult to the whole of humanity. Fascism creeps into all of our spheres, into every beloved craft and community, and the response is never to pretend it’s not there. The response is to drive it out.

#today just finished reviewing and commenting on #lowCarbon #communityEnergy #businessPlan …

Noticed only today, since moving my #Emacs environment over to the new laptop last November, all my #OrgRoam 'dailies' are not orgroam files, they are basic #OrgMode files 🥹 C-c n d d does resolve to the right org-roam command, but these files contain only a # title and nothing else.
It was likely naive of me to expect my .emacs to be relocatable.
I don't suppose there's a function to mass-convert org-files to org-roam? Well, that's what keystroke macros are for, I suppose!
On a positive note, my #Firefox kiosk issue was solved by MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 which is odd since I'm running Wayland and it had worked fine since September until I added and then removed /etc/firefox/policies/policy.json
