I love how much we can do by "setting aside the ethical and climate concerns" at the start of every modern tech talk, podcast, and article. So much we can do without those annoying ethical and climate concerns! Just set em aside! Cool trick! (real "I'm not transphobic, but -" vibes)

What if there was a co-op of developer educators? What if we built our own platform together? I bet that's a skill we have. Everyone could still post on other platforms as well, but this one we would own and manage together? I bet there's an audience, and even a profit-sharing business model that would make sense. Can we imagine collaboration?

The thought experiments for ai centrism are always so grim. so, we're asking if it's ok for an artist to… stop making art? but they still want to sell art, that looks kinda like art they used to make? why…? just say we're all burned out on capitalism. we don't have to debate the ethics of being tired or whatever. i'm tired too. i just don't see fake art as some great solution.

you can say my css isn't real programming, but I say your whatever thingy isn't a real language - so I guess we're at an impasse. everyone gets sent to bed without a programming language. this is what happens when you refuse to share with your sister. i hope you're happy.

What if, some day, I kick you in the shin so hard that you hallucinate a cure to cancer? We could cure cancer! Wow! I'm mean, wow wow wow! Doesn't this make it a Moral Requirement that I kick you as often as possibe, to achieve that perfect kick?! Yes! Yes, I must kick you! For humanity!

I have feelings about AI & the web & my experience being trans "in tech" in 2025 - so I screamed some thoughts onto my personal web log. I hope for all of us a more queer & humane future. Keep building communities & dreaming better paths.

Tech continues to be political

And the politics aren't looking great

Do you ever resize the browser window during the course of your day – apart from testing a responsive layout or using dev tools? (I would include other non-dev things that change the viewport inside the browser window, like sidebars coming in and out, or split screen tabs, etc)

NBD just jumping back and forth between full-day CSSWG meetings and reports of the government trying to order me out of existence. Status update: I still exist. (But with significantly fewer rights than I had a week ago, and new orders dropping daily – it's fucking dark)
