@dmoren same for me with swapping between users on my MacBook Pro (M1 Max 64GB RAM) - one user crippling slow with perennial beach ball and barely any apps running - the other fine with multiple apps/tabs in Safari/processing massive RAW photos. No idea what’s up.

Computers didn’t pass the Turing Test, humans failed it.
This captures much of the frustration of today.

Periodic reminder: Hate takes effort to maintain.

If it weren't for constant effort by fashy people to lie about Black folk, Brown folk, women, immigrants, trans folk, etc, that most people would choose *not* to support fashy people.

Fascism requires an ongoing cost. Kindness is free!

And kindness is not weakness.

If you see fashy people attacking Black people, or immigrants, or trans folk, it's not kindness to say, "We should all get along!"🤡

That's weakness.

It's kindness to put yourself between the people with less power than yourself, and the people that want to hurt them.

@davidallengreen I suppose I should be grateful his idiocy is entertaining but really it’s just exhausting.
And sometimes they’re all the above.

"The hurrier I go the behinder I get."

Saw that apocryphal Alice in Wonderland quote a lot as a kid (hanging on a plaque in the kitchen iirc), and it didn't mean much to me then.

But it's on my mind CONSTANTLY as I've gotten older.
