Reluctantly now focused on public health & disability resources because the professions aren't. Also try to fit in some service design, outdoors and whimsy.

As we head into another weekend of protests, please look out for one another. If you’re disabled and can’t be boots on the ground, that’s ok. Don’t let anyone make you feel guilt. Resist in your own way. Share posts. Amplify hashtags. Remember that rest is resistance. Survival is resistance.

Just finished up at the Evanston No Kings rally. It was safe, peaceful, and a show of solidarity by *at least* 1,000 people. Go to your local protest. Don’t let this administration scare you. Stand with your community when our leaders won’t.
I’m standing between two people holding one of their protest signs which reads, “I POUR MY COCKTAILS SERVED UP — NO ICE!!!”A man in a flannel shirt holds a sign with “8647” between his parents who are sitting in mobility aids. Their signs read “GRANDMA’S PISSED OFF!” and “DUE PROCESS FOR ALL!”Ben and I talk to a man in a mobility aid with a sign reading “Cutting Medicare and Medicaid WILL KILL people like me!”

I've been building a graph of issues in (American) society I've been observing, and child labor has been on it since very early on. Between mass disablement from Covid and immigrant workers being scared or detained/deported, the labor landscape in America is going to be bleak.

When it comes to long-term behaviour change, attractiveness might be the most overlooked design principle. Looking past comfort and convenience, it employs beauty—art, lighting, nature, etc.—to create a user experience that entices people onto a bike, even when a car makes the most practical sense.

The hard work of building a just future requires each of us to not give up. Hope isn’t passive, it’s active. Be hopeful, it takes tenacity, persistence, and courage. It’s much easier to be cynical or angry but real strength lies in hope and speaking up.

It's good for our collective sanity when we remember who to be mad at. Sometimes when we're all riled up as a group we take it out on each other, instead of directing anger at the actual villains in our story. Part of taking care of ourselves is reserving the anger for the actual enemy.

This morning, "extremely critical" wildfire risk designation--the highest level--has been expanded by NOAA SPC to include portions of San Diego County as well as much of LA/Ventura counties. Very strong winds & *extremely* low humidity w/record dry fuels expected. #CAwx #CAfire
Current fire risk outlook for Tuesday for Southern California from NOAA SPC. It now depicts two separate/discontinuous "extremely critical risk" zones, one in central San Diego County and the over in western LA/eastern Ventura County.

People need to stop using masks as a political football. The reality is that climate change and pandemics are here to stay and increasing in threat. We need to help people protect themselves and their communities by raising awareness about best practices and distributing high quality masks for free.
