SNL tonight with Timothée Chalamet. For so many years I looked forward to watching it live every weekend, a way to put the week in perspective and just laugh. I stopped watching it in November. Now ready to get back to it. 📺

I’m still reading Wind and Truth. Taking my time. I’m on page 1100 and it’s just starting to get really good. 🤪

After a few days of the freeze, actually turned into a nice late afternoon for a walk. Mueller Lake Park.

As expected, Pixelfed and Loops blew through their Kickstarter fundraising goal. I know from experience that running a campaign is actually a lot of work. When the dust settles, I hope they finish the new export format that was hinted at. We’ll do blog → Pixelfed import and back right away.

I hope one day, if I get through this with my sanity and health, we look back and find it odd that in the first week of Trump’s 2nd term, looking for someone to blame, all eyes turned to… Manton. The guy who has been fighting Trump for 8 years. The guy who has volunteered on campaigns against Trump. The guy who when Trump first won, broke down in tears. The guy who dedicated his life to building a safe platform. That’s the guy who must pay the price now.

Vincent Ritter has another post: Context.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me, in public and private. I’m not linking to the other posts, so it might seem like this is a one-sided fight with everyone on the other side, but I’ve seen many of the posts and greatly appreciate it.

Let me reiterate my support for the LGBTQ+ community. A couple days ago I also made a donation to the Trevor Project. It’s not my way to publicly talk about donations, but I got some good advice that people want to see this more openly. Where there’s more to do, we’ll do it.
