The interesting feedback loop when your nightlight is bright enough to turn itself off
PSA: Monty Python’s Flying Circus is on Netflix. This is not a drill. This is a cultural touchstone.
I messed up my streak in headspace and now I never want to meditate again 😡😤
I just got the payout from the Experian data breach settlement. Apparently my entire credit history is worth $8.65.
Seeing all these work anniversaries for old coworkers at my old employer gives me a big sad

Here's a good news story about coral reefs: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/nov/26/lobsters-and-octopuses-are-back-kenyan-women-leading-coral-reef-revival-wasini-island
TLDR: they can be cultivated, even quite close to the equator, to restore a reef from bleaching and sediment damage. And Wasini Island, Kenya is showing how local people can be deeply engaged in the restoration and directly benefit from tourism to their newly resplendent reef + better fishing outside the restoration area.

I can’t tell you how much I hate seeing job listings as “Washington DC”, only to find it’s really Reston or Springfield. Those are over an hour away! I live in DC! I want to see jobs 𝒊𝒏 DC!
My mastodon is slow, and it makes me kinda miss the bird site.

Seriously, who can defend someone leaving feces in a playground. I want to know.
