I'm going all in on Mastodon and actually uploading a real picture of myself! Challenge: find one from after 2008 with just me in it having had a haircut in the previous two weeks.

Dear app developers,
I have never had the desire to review an app. Prompting me to leave a review doe not make me want to do it any more. Making me click multiple times to dismiss your "nudge" and get back to using the app just makes me want to uninstall it.

I hate to say I’m desperate, but I haven’t had work in *months*. If anyone’s looking for a #freelance senior #wordpress #developer, please keep me in mind. I do full, custom theme builds, specialize in #accessibility and #semantic code, and am a great communicator about time estimates and budgets! My full portfolio is www.amberweinberg.com

If you don’t have any work, I would appreciate a boost 😊

This year 171 Starlinks have reentered injecting >5t of aluminum oxide into our atmosphere which is ~33% more Al₂O₃ added to our atmosphere than from meteorites. That number is projected to increase to 640%! "It adds up to a giant uncontrolled experiment in atmospheric chemistry. Researchers already know that aluminum oxides can destroy ozone in a complex series of steps involving Al₂O₃, HCl, AlCl₃, sunlight, Cl, & O₃. Other side-effects may reveal themselves in time."
