Maybe the most surprising aspect of this is how many TLAs were still apparently available under the .gov domain.

@Sheril "When it comes to policy issues like climate change and public health, they frequently held the perception that scientists lack a broader understanding of how their recommendations might impact the economy, national security, or simply, the next election."

I mean, yeah OK but also people are dying and entire agriculture communities are at risk from global climate changes that politicians ignored and that are impacting the economy and national security.

@jewwhohasitall I am seeing a lot of municipalities trying to be inclusive by placing Krissmass (sp?) trees as decorations in public areas. However, they are placing open boxes under the tree to represent the ritual opening of gifts. According to my Christian friend, this looks strange because the gifts are only opened on the holiday itself. Respectful depictions should either use closed boxes or you can omit the boxes altogether.
@nddev my son is autistic and I feel like I know/have a sense. I have ADHD and generally get along better with people who are neurodivergent.

Here is my (slightly less unhinged than I expected) musings on the current state of designing for the web.

Generally, I think we lost something when we stopped calling people web designers and forced people to pick a side.

Call me old-fashioned, but I like human voices on the mic and songs picked out by people, not a database. Check it out, here's a list of 75 college radio stations w/links: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HN9VBZw16vBShsQC4AEnIdWOEIREetIeqN25ZWtI7Kw/edit#gid=0 #collegeradio #radio #music
