We're looking at the possibility that Republicans will have nominated 6 of the 9 Supreme Court justices, despite winning the popular vote just once in 32 years.
To develop software, you need to know concepts, rules, and conventions of
a) computer science,
b) your programming language,
c) your tools, and
d) your organization and project.
With only a/b, you can only make small programs. With only c/d, you can only make small changes.

Now this, this is doomscrolling
"Fight harder", but how? Vote? Obviously. Donate to Dems in competitive senate races? Already doing that. March in the streets? Doesn't do any good.
I'm privileged on just about every axis but I feel powerless against those with even more privilege.
What are we supposed to do?
Dear tech industry:
Saying "x" isn't any faster than saying "times".

@JanelleCShane That reminds me that I'd really like to own a replica of a Cobolt 60 source. The simple "DROP & RUN" message terrifies me to my core.
Tech, like any field, has a lot of necessary jargon. The additional tsunami of brand and product names, rapidly changing and often redundant, threatens to collapse the tower of Babel.
Denial-as-a-service.
So lucky to live in a world where gourmet food like this is available. It's like attending Fyre Festival in the comfort of my own home!

Meanwhile in Australia.
As some people predicted, posting this caused another thing to happen. Now @TheOneTAR just needs a supervolcano to win!
