If you want to protect your money, you need the CFPB. The agency has returned billions to Americans & protects workers from predatory lenders. Trump & Musk want it gone. Without it, the winners are them & the losers are us. CFPB Director Rohit Chopra joins me at 11a on #Velshi.

Do you use the "Please Caption" bot to remind you to add image descriptions? Some updates about it:

1) It has just changed servers, its new account is:

➡️ @PleaseCaptionBot

If your follow hasn't transferred automatically, follow it at the new address.

2) There was a problem transferring the bot's follows list. Even if you're following it at the new address, you should unfollow it and re-follow it in order to trigger the bot's follow back. Follow backs are needed for reminders to work.

I can see the attraction of NixOS now that I've tried it. If you are running some Linux distribution on more than one machine, you have a list of things you want to do to get them just right after an OS install. I've had scripts for that, but NixOS just supports the idea directly. You just add your list to the config file and update.

It can go further and manage your home directory dot files and things like that. Currently I'm thinking that piece of the puzzle is small enough to just script.

"von Auseinandersetzungen, die in Deutschland ausgetragen werden"

Selbst beim Thema Magdeburg äußert sich Merz zersetzerisch und mit kaum verhohlenen Ressentiment.

Dieser Mann ist für eine Führungsposition im 21. Jahrhundert absolut ungeeignet.

Dieser Mann darf auf keinen Fall Kanzler werden.

I’ve decided when confronted with small talk I’m going to start shouting “mask!” to switch modes the way Matt Berry’s Laszlo shouts “bat!”

#WritersCoffeeClub 12/21 Disney is making a musical animation of one of your stories. How well does that go?

Despite their feud with Mr. Pudding Fingers and lip service to corporate Pride, I hear they are in fact quite homophobic and transphobic, and so I don't think it would go very well at all. Plus they are notoriously anti-union. Then again, they did Andor so maybe they're capable of sucking it up if it turns a profit.

Happy #caturday friends!

#pennedpossibilities What strengths do you have in your writing?

I like to think I'm occasionally funny.

#WordWeavers 12/21. Is your MC named after anyone of significance in their world?

Ian is named after a man of no significance, a name that he promptly buried when he was in his early 20s, and magic chose this one for him as a cruel trick that would not become apparent for another two decades.

If glowforge had a non-subscription option to use their built in drawing software I'd use it off and on.

Instead I just say nasty things about them because they will sell a school a machine that costs thousands of dollars then want $50 bucks a month for the privilege of drawing a circle with the thing.

You can easily use any software that makes SVG doc and upload them. It's not at the level of a lock-out scam, but if you don't work with SVGs often this is very annoying.

What makes a good life? Lessons from the longest study on happiness
What keeps us happy and healthy as we go through life? If you think it's fame and money, you're not alone – but, according to psychiatrist Robert Waldinger, you're mistaken. As the director of a 75-year-old study on adult development, Waldinger has unprecedented access to data on true happiness and satisfaction. In this talk, he shares three important lessons learned from the study as well as some practical, old-as-the-hills wisdom on how to build a fulfilling, long life.
Psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, Zen priest

Robert Waldinger is the director of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, one of the most comprehensive longitudinal studies in history.

Geen nieuws dat Geert Wilders meteen begint te schreeuwen na zo'n verschrikkelijke aanslag als van gisteren. Nu blijkt dat de dader eerder een aanhanger van Wilders en consorten was dan van Mohammed. Dat valt Wilders niet aan te rekenen, de man was kennelijk gestoord. Maar hij is na Breivik al de tweede moordenaar die openlijk fan is van Wilders. Tijd voor enige zelfreflectie, meneer W.! En niet alleen maar verontwaardigd zeggen dat je hier natuurlijk niks mee te maken hebt. Dit is gevaarlijk.
