I’m noticing a new trend, where sites use a FontAwesome slider icon to indicate that you can do settings. However, there is a well-established icon for settings that can be used as well. For instance, on Mastodon, the slider affects your timeline settings and the gear affects your account settings. Well, sort of. The settings…

One of the things I enjoy doing is solve crossword puzzles. Given that crossword puzzles tend to be a mashup of language knowledge and trivia, I consider myself to have solved one if I cover 95% or more of the empty squares correctly. Typically if I do solve one, though, I will have covered 98%…

Through a post on Twitter, I just became aware of the Global Transit Map. This set off quite a bit of exploration. It occurred to me to plan out the longest possible public transit trip by bus in North America. Fair warning, or perhaps fare warning, this is going to be looooong blog post. tl;dr:…

My bestie just returned from a trip to Oregon, where she reported unexpectedly attending a Jacob Collier concert and hearing a random someone call him the best musician ever. I beg to differ that such a label is even possible to assign to someone.

NASA has a mission to visit the Trojan asteroids and, given that it’s a long voyage, they want to fill up Lucy’s MP3 player with all sorts of cool music inspired by Lucy’s journey. Okay, not quite, but they do want to inspire more music to come into the world based on Lucy’s theme: Naturally,…

It would be nice if Zoom considered neurodiversity as much as it has deafness. I’ve complained to Zoom through the Help menu feedback feature for the past year about its unfriendliness to me, with no sign of improvement. Zoom has worked hard on deaf accessibility. An automatic transcript can be provided, and I believe they’ve…

Not declaring war on holidays or anything but I’ve been realizing when I look at someone I can’t tell whether they celebrate any holidays around this time of year or not. For instance, Hindus, Muslims, and Buddhists do have holidays, but those are not necessarily around this time. And, just as I don’t want to…

There’s been a lot of talk in the last several years – longer than that, but it’s been much more in the public eye lately – about gender pronouns. A polite person does their best to ensure that they refer to others using the correct pronoun, so that they are not referring to someone by…

I stream music. Sometimes. Not at the moment. I’ve been on Apple Music on and off for the last couple of years. Every so often, I take a break from it. I’m on a break right now that started perhaps two months ago when I let an annual subscription expire.

“I don’t see color! WE ALL BLEED RED.” People of color, you have almost certainly had white people say this to you, or some version of it, numerous times. It’s a lie. But you already knew that. White people, of course we “see color.” We see that people are Black, or Asian, or Latinx. So…
