From @jimrutenberg @ NYT: "The United States has now failed at having a peaceful transition of power. That is just a fact at this point."

If they get away with this it will be worse next time. I promise you.

2021 had a good run....6 whole days

Today is the season finale, right?

If you support what's happening in any way, please get the fuck out of my life.

For today’s crime I will just be gesturing generally in the direction of Washington, DC.

Psst. You might want to pause your automated marketing tweets until the armed coup has subsided a bit.

The delicious parsnip creme soup I just made has been upstaged by the president of the USA trying to stage a coup on himself.

Hey, every member of the media, this isn't what a protest looks like. Stop calling it that.

If you work at Twitter, fuck what @jack says, turn off his account. Delete it. Unplug the entire fucking datacenter if you have to.

Every Rep and Senator who showed up today planning to object to the electoral college count is responsible for what is going down right now as if they had directed this mob themselves. They will be responsible for whatever happens as a result.

pretty angry at all of you who dismissed the rest of us who correctly read the tea leaves this was going to happen.

We're going live in a few if anyone wants to live chat or watch @allie_nimmons and I talk #IndieWeb!

If you watched Enterprise, and substitute zippers with Velcro, that’s literally the plot of one of the episodes :) https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Carbon_Creek_(episode)

It is wonderful to see github pages and static site generators grow so much the diversity of the web making it easier to run personal websites! That's the web I want, full of innovation sprawling everywhere!

Stephen, why are you so critical of Facebook and not the other big tech companies?

A 🧵 for well-intentioned engineers about how to navigate the complexities of big tech.

So, no Facebook is not "just another company" like the other tech giants. The ethical distinction is one in kind, not degree. Its business model is corrupt to the core. It is the Big Tobacco of the information age. (13/)

.@indiewebcat joined for the livestream today so we had to make a lapcam.

Y2K was 21 years ago. Looking back, I think the only thing we learned is that if a bunch people work really hard to stop a problem from happening, lots of other people will assume it was never really a problem.
