      Damn it’s been a while since I’ve watched Ireland be controlled like that. Terrifying opener to the #sixnations. Kudos to France

      This feels a little silly, but my CashApp balance is $15 short to pay this Minneapolis immigrant family’s rent right now. Can someone CashApp me $15 for that, please and thank you?

We keep us housed 💛

      Virtual Desktops on Windows aren't used enough. Mac has the "maximize to Virtual Desktop" button so I did a similar thing for Windows. Please go test it and file issues. 

SHIFT-CLICK on the Maximize button will maximize a window to a new Virtual Desktop. Also a hotkey.

      Not only do I need to see Mr. Beast, but I *also* have to hear the Slack notification? On this, the weekend after Salesforce killed Heroku?

      Get you a friend like @rosemarymosco.com who will remind you to stop and smell the stinkhorn fungus
      Text message exchange. I have sent two photos, one of some flat white leaf-like fungus on a tree stump and one of an orange cage-shaped lattice stinkhorn (Clathrus ruber), with the caption “Some excellent fungi at the Santa Barbara botanical gardens”. Rosemary replies: omgomgomg that second one I've wanted to see it for ages, you got so lucky! did it stink??? I then reply: “I don’t know! I didn’t smell it. Should I go check?”
