Been thinking too hard on this song I made in 2018 so I just decided to scribble together a cover on a paper towel and put it out.

If you are thinking of protesting by not voting, Bernie Sanders answers this question very well: “I disagree with Kamala’s position on the war in Gaza. How can I vote for her?”
I often don’t post code stuff on here but I guess I should more often since I do that too.
I made a Bluesky Bookmarklet for anyone that still uses bookmarklets (I do).
It doesn’t do anything complex, just grabs the current URL you’re looking at and tosses it in a Bluesky action intent so I’m not grabbing any data or anything like that.
It’s just a simple share button. 😊
Just to to this Codepen link to get it.

Some of these have changed since posting! For example, Chevron is now also considered a consumer boycott target. Texaco and CalTex has been added to that list as well. Here is the BDS movement website, so we can stay updated! :) Their website also explains the difference between each of these categories, and the reason why each of these companies is a target.

I didn't mention here, but it's strike week once again (18th-25th) and I've been limiting any social media usage outside of uplifting Palestinian voices and boosting resources and I encourage you all to do the same! Double down on those boycotts, donate if you can, call your reps! This is the least we can do 🍉
Going to this site and clicking everyday generates funds for Gaza: https://arab.org/
Consider buying eSims for the folks in Gaza so they can communicate with their families: https://gazaesims.com/

Bail funds for kids who got arrested protesting for Palestine. Spread this shit like a wildfire. If you can’t donate that’s fine boost this so it can find people who can
Was just a guest on this live stream with Jiikae chatting about the possible futures of Nintendo game consoles check it out!
I had a tattoo client ask if I ever used AI to design tattoos for me. Man I spent the better part of a decade doing shitty bit work as a graphic designer and now that I have the space to do whatever I want, I'm gonna let the computer generate random garbage for me? What next should I have a computer that eats my dinner and fucks my wife?
I feel like people get so hung up on the results of a thing that they don't appreciate that the process of making it is, actually, enjoyable.
It's like if you have a friend who likes to bake, asking if they'd like to just buy cupcakes from the store instead of making them. The end result of the cupcake is secondary to the joy you get from having made cupcakes.
Art isn't a slog or a chore or something I want to avoid. Art is fun. It's rewarding. It feels good to do it. You may as well be asking me if I want the AI to watch television for me, it doesn't make any sense, I'm not participating and would gain nothing from it.
This. All of this.
