life change thoughts had this morning in wake of election that I can share on the TL 

- I guess I'm definitely volunteering for my Muslim city councilwoman's re-election campaign (she's facing a zionist primary challenger)

- maybe I should pivot to getting credentialed to be a high school social studies teacher to try and deal with some root cause shit going on here

Mozilla layoffs 

I knew Nabiha would be bad news for the org but damn

putting together a little guest geospatial data tutorial for a friend where i'm going to do an intro to mapshaper and once again blown away by how good mapshaper is

@jenlowe to be fair, some of her songs are about being hot and good at drag

@ntnsndr it can, although Chappell tends to be pretty direct about the horniness of her work

Saw someone reading Chappell Roan's new song on SNL as a stealthy Kamala endorsement ("she gets the job done" chorus) and I don't totally know how anyone could hear that song as being about anything other than the fact lesbians are better at fucking, ie the premise of most Chappell Roan songs

I still think doing my quals oral exam tomorrow morning was the right call over waiting until after the election is called but man, what weird vibes

@forestofthings thanks! it has been helpful for keeping me present with texts and makes for a funny sort of diary

A shameful confession 

the Wicked movie looks great and I am excited to watch it

you gotta understand I am a former theater kid who grew up reading the super fucked up b-side Oz books that my dad had when he was a kid

also the novel the musical is based on!! is fun!! i will enjoy a lil spectacle as a treat sorry

like the audience for this will probably be ux designers or something and i just don't have it in me to tell them to like use standard fonts and make less js-heavy websites to do their part

working on a "internet infrastructure, what is it" talk for the first time in a while and really tempted to just turn it into a call for butlerian jihad

An eight foot tall skeleton tipping his top hat and belting out "laws are vibes", hello-my-ragtime-gal style

@max wise! I have been drinking a lot of tulsi and chamomile but side quests might gain more precise herb selection.

People keep asking me about my "The Future is TK" sweatshirt and it's always sort of awkward explaining a dumb media joke so from now on I'm just going to say it's short for Ted Kaczynski
