Brief check in- Bleak House was so far, spared. We hand carried over 100 pieces out of the collecton. Many friends lost their homes. Helping them now. Will be absent here for a while. Stay safe.
Good morning from 100 Centre Street in Manhattan, where the President-elect is set to be criminally sentenced on 34 felony convictions for falsification of business records.

NEW: Platformer has obtained the dehumanizing new guidelines moderating what people can now say about trans people on Facebook and Instagram. Employees tell me these changes are likely to inspire more violence against LGBT people: www.platformer.news/meta-new-tra...
the "esc" key on a keyboard is a holdover from early-'90s personal computers. on some models it would dispense a can of escargot out of one of the unused drive bays. they put it in the corner so you wouldn't press it by accident because you only got three of them. i pushed it once and got grounded
A lot of people will criticize for visiting trump. Don't. Imo, the best way to win voters is to do all you can to represent your constituents first. Your party last. Voters want results. If he can use Trump to get that. Amen.
Attempted to demonstrate my modular synth to my parents and couldnt even make the drum machine make a drum noise.
My own opinion is that it's good to signal (through words and/or actions) the virtues that you value; that's one of the most important parts of maintaining a healthy community.

Noticed a little blood in the snow under my bird feeders, hoped I was feeding the neighborhood hawks and not cats or something.
The cardinals were really upset this morning, in the dark I didn’t realize why until she swooped down— my neighbor Barred Owl hunting House Sparrows at the feeders!
Have been on Bluesky quite a bit the last two days (for info & resources) & it’s not social media that’s broken. I think it’s us that’s broken now. I’ll post about places ppl can donate because LA is in bad shape & my replies are full of “ummmm sounds like somebody’s never heard of Pompeii.”
I love and really enjoy the community here. My one gripe is that I wish there were better tools (or any tools at all really) for filtering notifications. It makes it hard for me to engage with people bc my notifications are just a firehose with no way to filter them.
I went to the Jimmy Carter public visitation in the Capitol Rotunda last night. My friend and I arrived around 9pm. It was below 20 degrees with the wind chill.
Wait time? 3.5 hours. Thousands of people were waiting outside in the freezing cold for hours late at night to honor Jimmy Carter.
