Biden’s State of the Union ad-libs
“Thanks to our bipartisan infrastructure law, 46,000 new projects have been announced all across your communities.
And by the way, I noticed, some of you that strongly voted against it are there cheering on that money coming in.
I like it. I’m with you. I’m with you. And if any of you don’t want that money in your district, just let me know.”

Biden has used similar lines in the past, goading Republicans who opposed the infrastructure bil…

…and surprise surprise, there were a ton of kids of literally all ages and they were being encouraged to make a lot of noise to let the dogs know they were doing good (which, now I think on it, seems a tad perverse—but I digress.) Some kids can yell real loud. I knew this, in theory, of course. What I just realized is I had my new hearing aids in, boosting the bejeebus out of the frequencies they were screaming at. It didn’t occur to me that I could’ve turned them down. Or off. Doh.

Folks,
If you like Guppe Groups, let me remind you at the same time a year ago they were about to close the project due to insufficient funding.
These days their financial situation exceeds declared minimums, but I'm not sure if it stays that way past the anniversary of their previous call for help (for example, I treated yearly membership as one-time donation because OpenCollective doesn't know the concept of one-time tip).
So I'm leaving this link here.

From twelve years ago, talking to the deeply-missed David Carr about Reddit: “Condé gave it enough rope and left the people there to their own devices. I don’t know whether it was a brilliant strategy or accidental neglect, but the founders did not leave, the community stayed intact, and the site grew beyond anybody’s expectations.”

David Eccles 🌻🇵🇸5x🩹🛡️🩹 (@gringene_bio) on X
@thomaswicker314 It seems unlikely to me that RT would jump that distance and still work well, especially with multiple jumps. Given that it's an LTR, doesn't it make more sense that the repeats would coil up, and the "jump" ends up being more of a side shuffle?

Someone asked today what a 'sense of self' is.
I want to tie this into ideas of relationality. I am a distinct individual, let's start with that. I'm not disavowing that entirely.
But I am also ‘an unschooler’: but this is not an attribute of my education for comparison. It is a community, a network of relationships with people working in similar ways. It's connections to anabaptist traditions and to a mode of interacting with parents (both in concept and my actual parents)
I'm from Colorado. But it's not just a place on the map: it's my relationship to my sense of smell, and my tolerance for cold weather and bright lights. It's a love of dark skies and clear views of the milky way. It's a relationship to knowing I am very very small in a vast universe. This is not a universal explanation of from-Colorado-ness, but it's mine.
I'm transgender, but that's not just I-myself-was-born-in-a-wrong-body, but I have a community and network and sense of belonging outside of myself. I've got embodied knowledge of being a dozen ways that others don't get to experience. It affects and informs my relationship to my communities and my work.
I’m argumentative and sometimes a little arrogant, but this is also because of how I'm connected: there are things I know deep in my body that I cannot explain how I know, but I do. I forget that others see me as a ‘you' and not a 'we' sometimes, and so misunderstandings happen. But to change that would change me in ways I'm not quite willing to grow into, so there is going to be a small callus in how I socialize. And it's fine. It works. I am who I am, but I also don't think about _me_ that much. To think about me is to think of all the connections instead. They're inseparable.

Man BG3 is good. Playing co-op w/friend that gave me the CPU I'm about to replace (she knew what she was doing giving it to me.)
