USDA data confirms what farmers already know: Trump’s policies are killing family farms. In Ohio, we lost 400 farms last year. Yet Trump still wants massive tariffs - unacceptable.

Trump and Stephen Miller are looking for any excuse to use the insurrection act, declare martial law, and crown Trump the puppet king. Peaceful protest enrages them, and they will only get more reckless and bloodier as their power starts to wane. We must continue to stand together. We WILL win

Minnesota, you are making the midwest proud. Being there for your neighbors is an ingrained culture in the northern flyover states. It just what we do. Always. Sometimes that’s showing up with a casserole. Sometimes it’s standing up to a fascist occupying force. Midwest Nice. But Not for ICE.

if people no longer read the code, API is no longer targeting humans, is there still a need for "good API design"? is it still worth the effort to figure out what would be the best for users, instead of the best of ai to understand/use? I don't know.

Me
Surreal “Distracted Boyfriend” meme warped into an M.C. Escher–style black-and-white spiral. In the foreground, a man labeled “ME” in a blue plaid shirt looks over his shoulder at a smiling woman in a red top labeled “AN INTERESTING SIDE PROJECT,” while ignoring a frustrated woman in a light blue top labeled “THE THING I’M SUPPOSED TO FINISH.” The scene repeats smaller and smaller within the spiral, each iteration labeled with progressively longer “side project to the side project” text, creating an infinite recursion effect.
