Hate to break it to you, but that’s a longstanding practice.

We’re about to get one.

Org Mode.

I’m generally a vim user, but for job-related task management I set up emacs with evil (too many) years ago. There were vim plugins to reimplement pieces of it, but none of them covered all the functions I would use (that may have changed in the last decade, but I have a working system so it wasn’t worth the effort to check). I add tasks, tag priorities, and set recurrences for maintenance tasks. For billable or potentially billable tasks I use the built in clocking.

I make relevant notes under the tasks as I work on them, keep the finished task until weekly manager meetings, then archive them so they don’t clutter my working file but remain searchable if ever needed (which is more often than you might think).

I add new tasks at the top. Unfinished lower priority tasks get pushed down out of sight over time. When we hit a slow period, I review them and archive anything no longer relevant, then reprioritize and start working through the backlog.

Last week, the group challenged the legitimacy of the orders signed by Biden claiming that an “autopen signature” was used across almost “every document” it could find.

However, a Fox News examination of President Donald Trump’s executive orders during his first and second administrations found “the signatures were also the same.” Twenty-five of Trump’s signatures on the Federal Register’s website from across both terms also found signature matched, according to a separate analysis by the Daily Mail.

Vim has its own plugin system that can provide all of the things on your list. Most people used to use a plugin manager like vim-plug or pathogen, but plugins can also be installed manually.

With vim 8 there is built in plugin management. Just open the editor and type

:help packages

Plugins (including the plugin managers which are plugins themselves) get installed in your user’s home directory, so you can install them yourself without affecting other users or involving the sysadmins who are giving you pushback on installing other applications system-wide.

Capitalism

Proving that the easiest way for Democratic lawmakers to bring the Republican agenda to a screeching halt is to show a baseline level of support for the one transperson they’ve actually met.

They won’t on a wider scale though, showing just how little they care either for Trans folk or for stopping the Magats.

Israel’s record on that one is going to be tough to beat.

Seems like a decent high-level overview, but would have appreciated some hard numbers and details to back it up. For example, what type of cancer does it typically cause? Esophageal? What is the prevalence on a population level?

Badge of pride.

We had one, but there was a schism over the location of the Brunswick Shrine. That kicked off a round of mutual excommunications. By the time it was over, the mod had accidentally excommunicated (blocked) themself and everyone else had blocked each other.

So start one! Or five! May a thousand communities bicker for the greater glory of Eris Discordia. Kallisti!

Unfortunately, the headline overstates their support:

transgender and gender nonconforming students shall be permitted to participate in physical education classes and intramural sports in a manner consistent with their gender identity. Participation in competitive athletic activities and contact sports will be resolved on a case-by-case basis.

So “play” yes, but “compete” is still very much a question mark.

Fucking finally!

If only there was any will at all to do this at the federal level.

Yes.

It shouldn’t. They did so poorly because 10% of the German electorate shifted even farther to the far right AfD, and another 10% had already done so in previous elections.

Not as many problems as traveling without one.

Having traveled before with someone in that exact situation, yes, there will be harassment and TSA may very well intentionally force you miss your flight and end up waiting to fly standby on the next one. But as of now, you generally do get through, which cannot be said for traveling internationally without any passport at all.

Will that change? Highly likely. Soon? Probably.

But there are a not insignificant number of people who only recently decided it’s no longer safe, applied for passports, made plans to leave, and saw recent stories about passports not being issued. This type of scare mongering does not help them, and can be actively harmful to their mental health and well-being.

Edit: Obviously the longer they stay, the higher the chance this changes.

After hearing she was still issued a passport at all? Yes, actually. There are quite a few (trans) people who probably feel a little bit safer than they did yesterday when they thought they were trapped in the country.
