What years did you go?
Hey Los Angeles, please consider leaving a public comment on CF #25-0600 urging them to reverse the proposed cut to the Department of Disability and also add a line item funding prevention, treatment, education, and support services for Long COVID.
I came across someone who has scans of the Cornerstone Festival programs on Flickr. This will be a fun nostalgia trip for me. First year I attended and the last.
My friend Joe wrote some good reflections about one year of the Front End Study Hall meetups.
If you’re interested in HTML/CSS, this is the place to be. It’s a fun, supportive group of people meeting every couple weeks. Join an upcoming one!
Congratulations to Joe Crawford for a year of organizing the Front End Study Hall meetups! Here’s a little badge:

Great video! The IndieWeb community is a fun, supportive space to explore bringing back personal websites. I recommend checking out their virtual Homebrew Website Club meetups and the wiki, indieweb dot org. :)

I’m pissed off. “tHe lAw AnD OrDeR pArtY” said they’re ignoring the Supreme Court’s order to return Abrego Garcia to the US. They kidnapped him from his wife and kid and sold him off to a torture prison in El Salvador. They can do this to anyone and it’s your word against theirs. No due process.
I am currently safe from the SoCal earthquake. Definitely felt it, but no damage.
Coachella does a pretty good job with these YouTube livestreams. Watching the replay of Jimmy Eat World now and looking forward to Darkside later. https://coachella.com/youtube-livestream.

Another great read from Julia Doubleday on understanding the eugenics in RFK’s “MAHA” movement:
“It’s critical for people to learn the internal logic of MAHA in order to effectively organize against it, because if you are critical of anti-vaxxers while adopting some of their talking points and central concepts, you ultimately boost their world view. You may be up to date on your vaccines, but do you sneer at the idea that you could end up with Long COVID? Do you refuse to mask because you assume every person harmed by COVID is inferior to you, with your superior eating habits and commitment to the gym? Do you ignore advocates who organize for institutional mitigations like better quality indoor air, because you believe that people who die from COVID don’t really matter the way you do?”
— Gauntlet News, “RFK Jr.’s ‘MAHA’ movement doesn't want to eliminate chronic illness. They want to eliminate the chronically ill.”
