Timeline
This is an active timeline of what I'm up to online. It encompasses the various places I post and should stay up to date. Right now It's style very basically but I hope to change that overtime.

This is the most beautiful thing I’ve read in awhile. Don’t let the domain trick you into expecting comedy. https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/an-open-letter-to-robert-f-kennedy-jr-who-thinks-my-daughter-is-a-tragedy

@endonend i'm not sure if you have a roadmap or feature request for crucial tracks but can I suggest two things (with zero pressure - just suggestions)? 1) Time Zone - would love to setup a timezone for the daily tracks2) when looking at the page of public tracks it'd be awesome to be able to like or heart or upvote or 🎶 or something a post to let the author note we appreciated/resonated/enjoyed it :)

Don’t forget the May giving drive hosted by omg.lol which includes a matching grant thanks to BBQ! https://home.omg.lol/givingAn idea: Pick something local that makes a difference where you are at in these troubling times and double the impact with the match!

New earbuds arrived! I've been using the Soundcore p40i for about 6 months after my wife accidentally threw away my Beats Solo Buds. I loved the Beats but the only thing I've appreciated about the Soundcore is how long the charge last. The fit horribly and sound flat. So, after doing a bit of research I decided to go with the Nothing Ear (https://us.nothing.tech/products/ear?utm_medium=PaidSearch&utm_source=Bing&utm_campaign=HQ_PaidSearch_Bing_Lower_Audio_US_EN_LP&utm_content=Entei_Exact&msclkid=279bb09a139a15c59bd7d88df1d4647e). So far the fit is amazing and the sound is amazing. I couldn't be happier - I like them even more than my old Beats!

Saw Thunderbolts today! It was not what I expected at all. And that's a great thing! Really enjoyed it, what it explored and how it explored it. Probably one of the better MCU movies in a while?

🎶 Contemplating doing CrucialTracks every day in May for #weblogpomo2025 instead of a traditional post. Good idea? Bad idea?

LWT this week was about the public health disaster happening with RFKjr at the head of HHS (see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8H34jcpEsFs&pp=ygURbGFzdCB3ZWVrIHRvbmlnaHQ%3D). It makes a perfect companion to my piece yesterday & it's a great primer on why sanewashing these people is so dangerous: https://krrd.ing/posts/dont-give-in-to-the-radicalization-pipeline/

I’ve been a part of a lot of communities online & in real life; have helped lead some too. It’s never failed that the ones that avoid hard conversations, that prop up privilege, that celebrate power, that cover up bad behavior, that asks abused to apologize to abuser for outing them publicly, let folks call marginalized folks assholes for standing up for themselves, etc etc end up failing to affect real change in the long run and perpetuate lots of harm instead. Be better. Want better.

Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez - the US citizen detained by ICE, who a judge couldn’t get released WAS just released. Lots of people spoke up and wouldn’t stop speaking up. I wanted to share this again because speaking up is so important right now. https://social.lol/@mbjones/114339523077967232

Week Notes (12-08-2024)
It was a long week. I don't know how much more there is to say?

playing in the sea
Pictures don't always turn out the way you expect. Sometimes they might even come out better.

sunset over the sea
I love this shot of the sunset over a beach in Cape Town. The birds flying, in particular, make it perfect.
