It's been heartening to come across so many #blacklivesmatter banners across documentation sites for web development tools. A huge number of developers will be hitting these sites countless times daily to look things up during work — I've been one of them!

To highlight a few:
https://sass-lang.com/
https://glitch.com/
https://emotion.sh/

Last (but not least!), Netlify are matching donations up to $25,000 to a number of orgs: https://www.netlify.com/donation-matching/

I love this. I think it solves the problem of #bookmarks for me. Links to handy tools can live in my knowledge base, and links to blogs that I don't want to forget about can go in here, surfaced in my browser start page every so often.

Fascinated by this #emacs package for controlling #spotify...

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it working. Not sure I'd use it regularly even if it did work, but I'd love to give it a spin!

can't say I've ever worked with a compiled language before, but the Elm compiler looks super duper friendly

People that take the Glasgow-Edinburgh train have developed this anarcho-communist ticket sharing economy and I love it. It's because return tickets cost literally only 10 pence more than a single, so people just buy returns and leave the other ticket at the station they arrive at.

It's fucking beautiful and more folk need tae know about it

Posts that get 20, 30, hell even 50 faves are cheap. I live for the toot that gets exactly one, but the person actually means it - it really is their favorite toot

Hot take: post-apocalyptic fiction is so popular because people desperately want to live lives that aren't yoked by capitalism, but are unable to even conceive of such a thing happening without the world ending first

it's so fucking amazing to me that art is a thing humans do. like we're under absolutely constant pressure to perform, to fulfil ten million different obligations, and yet there are still so many people that just say fuck that i'll make something useless. it doesnt matter how much a piece of art sucks, they all have the potential to be fascinating because they open up the doors to gratuitous emotions and meaning-making, and that is a spellbinding activity all by itself.
