Sorry, but I find the expression “Merry Christmas” offensive. “Happy Holidays” is also unacceptable. The same goes for “Good morning” or “Hello” or any type of greeting. Don’t even make eye contact until I’ve had coffee.

I just made my 361st loan on Kiva.

Microfinance changes lives. Lend $25 to someone who needs it. Get paid back. Lend it again.

Do you always lift the toilet seat to check for spiders or are you not from the tropics?

Anyway anyway anyway, I'm glad I was born and raised Jewish, where we're told it's not just good but *necessary* to argue with god, and where, when I was 12 and told my Rabbi that I was an atheist, he said "good for you!" and then told me all about all the famous Jewish atheists.

It's the end of the year and that means you can delete every email in your inbox that someone sent you before March!

If it's important they will send it again. If you're keeping it there for 'reference' you will never refer to it again I promise

There was once a dream of a decentralised web.

As recently as a decade ago we had a still very active blogosphere, connected via blogrolls and RSS. Specialised web forums were still mainstream and messenger apps could largely interoperate.

Centralised social media slowly ate that dream. It had plenty of positives, but it pulled more and more people away from the open web and into corporate walled gardens.

Some people kept the dream of decentralisation alive. And now you are here.

Run fedifinder on your 🐦 account: https://fedifinder.glitch.me/#

It now creates a json list of ALL of your followers, so you can continue to refer to that list even when tools / links / etc are disabled.

I feel like my most controversial take is it doesn't matter who wins the game. Whatever game you're thinking about, yes I mean that game too.

@hampton how much could a banana cost, Michael, ten dollars??

1 million seconds ago December had just started.

1 billion seconds ago the Soviet Union still existed, and the world wide web was invented.

1 trillion seconds ago the Sahara was a grassland. Humans were creating the earliest known cave paintings, and beginning to make and use flour.
