This made my day.

A year of sunrises - 13 pictures of the sun, each month, same place, same time.

"One of the best places in Edmonton to see the sunrise point change along a familiar horizon is Valleyview Drive, which is where I photographed sunrise once a month for a year. This image is the final result of stacking 13 sunrise images from Dec 2020 to Dec 2021, to visually depict the change in the sunrise point over a year." - Photographer, Luca Vanzella.

Always invite Anna

Sometimes the people who need invitations most are the ones who always decline them.

Had no idea about this secret album from Mariah Carey, produced with her friend Clarissa Dane. Gina Trapani blogs:

"To blow off steam, she writes a grunge rock album inspired by alt-rock bands like Garbage, Hole, and Sleater-Kinney. She records it at night with the band after the Daydream sessions, channeling her frustrations into the music, and picks the most perfect name for such a project: Someone’s Ugly Daughter."

Love this. 🎶

An all-time great story of creative release: It’s 1995, and Mariah Carey is recording her fifth album Daydream. She’s also in a terrible marriage, longing...

Privilege:
Not being blamed for what someone else does.

For instance, if a white cis dude does something bad, that in no way impacts all other white cis dudes. But if a trans person does something wrong, all other trans people have rights restricted as a result.

Hell, in some cases a cis dude does something bad and trans people get their rights restricted.

This is how privilege functions.

It is so hilarious to me that we have FOSS maintainers begging for money to try to keep the development of NTP ongoing. NTP - you know, that protocol that the entirety of humanity relies on for access to the internet (or anything on a network for that matter).

Meanwhile the o̶l̶i̶g̶a̶r̶c̶h̶y̶ broligarchy makes billions of the backs of these people.

Anyways, they're currently at $495 of $1000 for their 2025 goal. Go throw them some $ if you feel so inclined.
