Restarting my blog after a long time away. Continuing to blog about Drupal, frontend development, nonprofit technology (nptech), and advocacy; now I'm adding Hugo, MJML, bash scripting and some other things. Stop by and take a look if you'd like: rootwork.org/blog/2022/09/r…

The counted ballots were 62 Yes and 15 No. There were some challenged ballots, but not enough to change the results of the election. It's a decisive win!

Workers at New Seasons Market Seven Corners have won their Union!

@deanna 100% And great newsletter!

@rootwork @snopes @paulisci So wild, right?!

"Nobody wants to work anymore": A brief history of capitalists complaining that nobody wants to work for starvation wages, via @deanna's newsletter (collected from @snopes, originally by @paulisci) deannazandt.substack.com/p/you-are-wort… snopes.com/fact-check/nob…

#Markdown syntax for def lists is so bizarre: Item title : Item definition The colon changes the formatting of not only its line but also the *previous* one. Can't think of another situation like it. MediaWiki's version: ; Item title : Item definition makes much more sense.

The @nytimes article on a park in Anacostia, DC, is beautifully designed, except... (and no, there's no way to dismiss the message) I get paywalling articles, but this is effectively paywalling random sentences! nytimes.com/interactive/20…

I'm in love with the new #RoseLane on NE Couch! So much better than the parallel Davis bike route with its speed bumps and semi trucks parked in the turn lane on NE 12th. Thank you @PBOTinfo! 🌹🚴‍♂️🚌💨 #pdx #gobybike @BikePortland

@css Survey link doesn't seem to be a link...

What does abortion criminalization have to do with movements to end police violence and criminalization? Everything. Our movements are connected and we can and must fight back together. Uplifting our resource: bit.ly/DecrimAbortion #LetThisRadicalizeYou #RoeVsWade

@sniitsvee Your set was so great! Btw how can I tip/say thx? Your tracks are free everywhere which is rad but...venmo?

i got to perform at radical pride yesterday and it was so fun!! thank you to everyone who came and listened - it’s super moving to see the ways we still come together despite how hard it can be to navigate the world we’re in right now 💕

The President telling people to be peaceful while they send riot battalions to the Supreme Court, which has snipers on the roof and just ruled that women can die rather than get an abortion is truly sick.

The worst-case scenarios are coming home to roost. We simply cannot afford to sustain separate, siloed movements; they are coming for every hard-fought civil right won in the last 50 years. WE have to fight back like our lives depend on it. Because they do. Join us.

The same SCOTUS that said yesterday that states don’t have the ability to regulate guns today gave states the power to regulate women’s bodies.
