feel like a bit of a dork for redesigning Networks of New York just going hard on Futura for typography but as far as field guide graphic design goes is there really a more iconic option

starting to think the harder part is making the day after the revolution and all the ongoing maintenance irresistible

Upon reflection the phrase "well we can't put the genie back in the bottle" seems flawed if it's drawing on Aladdin; being tethered to the bottle is the whole thing about the genie, you absolutely can tell the genie to go back to the bottle

Incredible 2004 speaker bio: "She is also an acclaimed software critic whose opinions are eagerly anticipated on several important mailing-lists."

Saw a kid wearing a t shirt that just said "FANTASY" and had a dragon on it and I was so into the premise of a t shirt for a genre but then I saw the dragon had a little football and the word "FOOTBALL" below the dragon
Which at least is a much more exciting interpretation of fantasy football

also that this listserv was 1) created by the guy who started https://del.icio.us and 2) hosted on the vanity domain https://burri.to, like come on guys

feels deeply dumbass-millennial coded that one of the most consequential listservs of people doing geospatial software stuff in the 2000s was called "geowanking" and now I have to explicate that name in a dissertation

My boldest take is that America doesn't actually have a "left" in any cohesive politically organized sense and it's weird to complain about "the left" or "leftists" as a single group
What most people call "the left" in media and analysis is either progressive Democrats (who are a minority within their own party) or People on Social Media Who Disagree With Them (hold leftist values/have leftist praxis but don't actually constitute a mass political party or organizing force)

Once again thinking about how Tommy Pickles' mom in Rugrats has the maiden name Kropotkin and is a first gen daughter of Russian immigrants meaning Tommy Pickles might be a descendant of the author of Mutual Aid
