Just finished this rather long article from @mattgemmell about his move back to Mac OS after over 8 years of being on iPad only. He was the inspiration for my own attempt at iPad as my main machine. I, however, didn't last nearly as long.

Amazon's modifications mirror similar actions taken by other major companies after Trump’s election victory, including Meta, McDonald’s, and Walmart

Remember : trans people, people of color, women...

Weakened, dominated, marginalized populations are always impacted before others.

Fighting for their rights is fighting for everybody's rights.

Entertain me, folks. It's a slow, meeting-filled day at work.

It wasn't a Roman Salute. It wasn't "giving his heart". It was a Nazi salute. Berlin should seize his factories.
