Okay so what do I do if it's a slow day at work, and I'm working from home. Talk to you nerds?

I feel like I’m still trying to build up the list of people I follow on here: who are some front-of-the-frontend devs that I should be following?

Imagine living in a world where stuff like this is happening and thinking the biggest problems are people with blue hair or nebulous “woke” activity.

Okay, so people are encouraging me to post more here, but maybe to ignore the replies... So I'll post my latest on Elon/Bill Ackman and their rather confused take on free speech that seems focused on punishing journalists for reporting on things these billionaires don't like. https://www.techdirt.com/2024/01/10/free-speech-absolutist-elon-musk-temporarily-bans-journalists-as-free-speech-absolutist-bill-ackman-threatens-slapp-suit-against-journalists/

A few days ago we welcomed a new addition on the farm. Relampaga (the brown and white cow in the picture) is June's (the black cow) first female calf. She is about 3 years old, and is now a first time mother. We now have three generations out in the field ♥️. She's an attentive mama, and protective of her baby.

We practice calf sharing with our cows, so mama and baby will not be separated for at least the first two weeks as we ease both of them into the milking routine. For now, every day I go out I check on mama, go through the motions of milking and make sure no mastitis sets in. She's going to be a very productive cow!

Once the calf is eating grass, and showing herself to be strong and healthy, we'll start separating her from her mama for about 10 to 12 hour overnight stretches. This will allow a nice bit of milk to build up that we will then take for ourselves before turning baby loose to freely nurse for the remainder of the day.

Now that I have two cows to milk, I'm going to have to get creative with so much milk. I just borrowed the neighbors cheese press, but I think I might also need to sew a strainer bag for making greek yogurt. I'm most excited about the possibility of building up a store of butter. 🤤

I've had cows fairly continuously for the last 11 years, and cannot imagine my life without one.

Hunter Biden called the bluff of the Republicans today. They didn't know he was going to attend the House Judiciary Committee hearing – calling them out on their hypocrisy, Hunter showed everyone that the Republicans don't want him to testify in an open, public hearing. They're afraid of honesty. Hunter Biden then walked out just as Marjorie Taylor Greene was set to speak.

Double Checkmate.

"Seeing what is being done in the name of Jewish people has to open the eyes of any reasonable and decent person, which is why I think Birthright and other groups go out of their way to avoid any exposure to what's really going on, because what's really going on is really ugly." - Larry Gellman

Yesterday many left leaning pundits and journalists were suspended from TwitterX without notice. Some were subsequently reinstated after very public complaints from a few prominent individuals.

We have seen this tactic before. Musk uses the ban hammer to enforce self censorship. The message is clear, step over the line and you will be silenced.

How can enduring this regime be worth it? 🤷

#Trump won’t make his own closing argument in his #NewYork civil business fraud trial after his lawyers objected to the judge’s insistence that the former president would stick to “relevant” matters.

Judge Arthur Engoron rescinded permission on Wednesday, a day ahead of closing arguments in the trial. #legal

This house would fall apart without me.

I know that Mastodon.social often gets flak for its less-than-speedy moderation.

But I want to say that it's _nice_ to see that they managed to do away with a blatant troll after a mere two hours after reporting them! How long would that have taken on Facebook or Xitter - if they had even bothered to do something about it in the first place?

Even the storm was like "Let's avoid Jersey if at all possible"

Fighters of the "Lytvyn" battalion of the Kalinovsky regiment demonstrated the coordinated operation of UAVs and mortars.

The drone recorded the movement and accumulation of enemy infantry in the forest strip. Having received the precise coordinates of the Russian armored personnel carrier from the air, the Belarusian military destroys it with one well-hit mortar shot, after which the enemy hastily retreats, taking the bodies of those killed during the attack of the soldiers.
