山野氏の県知事選チラシに「県民からの声」として新知事へ期待することが載っていて、その中に「故郷の景色を守るためにも外国人の土地購入へ規制を求めます(うろ覚え)」みたいなのあげてたし、参政党が絡んでると聞いてなるほどだわ とにかく馳浩に対抗するにはどこかに協力を仰ぐ必要があったんだろう
It rained for most of January and February here, which I assume is why the woods and wetlands are looking especially mossy now

Anyone ever used Surge as a free website deployment option? I just heard of them. Looking for Cloudflare and GitHub Pages alternatives (already know about Netlify, thanks!)
And, Codeberg Pages. I just...haven't been able to get that to work. If you know a good guide for dummies let me know.

Kick Stephen Miller out and he loses the military housing he is currently taking away from military officers who earned it.
And he has to look at the world's most benign chalk messages, which apparently scares the shit out of him.
Yes, Stephen and Katie Miller were decisively defeated by freaking sidewalk chalk. They sold their home and ran to a military base over chalk messages saying things like "DEI enriches us all."
And there's mofos saying protests don't work.
@gruberJohn Gruber Random, but: Thank you for Markdown. I've never thought to say that before, which is odd in retrospect, but Markdown is such a delightful way to express text, and it has been really transformative for all computer users.
Played the Mortal skin in Monsterhearts 2 last night. First time I've ever touched that playbook (or even seen it played I think?) and I am absolutely REVELING in the chaos. One of the most underrated splats in all of gaming.

matrix chat is fun! I never knew I had to keep an eye on the status of how each message reached each person, like I'm micromanaging my TCP/IP connections.

僕はふだんは5分を超える動画は見ないか気合いをためてから観るんだけど、YouTubeのアルゴリズムがおぬぬめしてくる1本20-30分間の猫動画のチャンネルのやつはだいたい迂闊に見始めて家事が止まる。編集が僕の好みに合ってるんだろうけどどう合ってるのかなんもわからん←
What do women want for #InternationalWomensDay?
Well, what does everybody want?
That. Obituary.
But until then, here is something we CAN make happen: call on your electeds to 86 Stephen Miller. Keep the pressure up. Because then what happens? Yes, of course, some other Nazi will replace him. But we will have another Nazi head on a pike, as @inthehandsPaul Cantrell said.
And think about this: he's cowering on a military base because people chalked "Trans rights are human rights" outside his house.
With ActivityPub / ActivityStreams...
To me, it feels like there should have been something that is a common parent of both 'Object' and 'Link'.
That just had the "name", "nameMap", and "preview" fields (along with "id" and "type, of course) — since that is what 'Object' and 'Link' share in common.
I'll just call this common parent: 'Entity'.
...
It could have even been an opportunity to talk about how to handle unknown types.

Apparently it’s not our imagination that things are trending that way…
