today's #ThreeGoodThings boxed meal kits, e.g. Hamburger Helper. I can cook in bulk without having to measure a bunch of spices, etc. my social worker. last week I'd gotten a bunch of produce alongside my grocery order, and they took it all to a food pantry for me. the Treehouse community and our moderators. y'all are lovely, and lovely to hang out with, and it's a privilege to know y'all.

today's #ThreeGoodThings @theradr.bsky.social, whose words have long been an inspiration to me in manifesting kindness in this world. Shabbat. may we all have a day of rest and peace, and may we have a light to guide us in this time of darkness. Proloquo4Text, which gives me a voice when my brain refuses to let me use my mouth. Bluestodon; having it means I'm actually posting on socials sometimes instead of just boosting other people's words.

today's #ThreeGoodThings FluxFur and its admins. FluxFur is a kink-positive Fluxer server run by furries (of course); Fluxer is a chat platform similar to Discord. apple cider donuts, which I wish I'd been able to get before Rosh Hashanah rather than during Sukkot. social safety nets.

starting today, I'm going to take a leaf from my lovely partner's book and post #ThreeGoodThings the various communities I'm in who know, accept, and embrace the fact I'm a fox kit. (somewhat regularly, I get pinged with fox pictures or asked questions about fox girls, etc. <3) my GP; the only time we've argued, he did not in any way say I was wrong, just that what I wanted was against his recommendations. the Oregon Commission for the Blind. finally got scheduled for B...

For the past few years, I’ve been working on a Hebrew font based on my handwriting. Partly this is because my handwritten Hebrew is 100% straight lines, but also because I have not had a lot of luck finding a Hebrew font that is actually legible for me at reasonable font sizes. Nikudimot are a particular problem, but unfortunately not one I can resolve. That font, Amefist, is now available on my website.

web accessibility inquiry: is there a way for me to specify how a sequence of characters should be read by screen readers? specifically, I habitually spell God as 'G?d' (capital G, question mark, lowercase d), and I want a screen reader that encounters it in an HTML document to read it as 'God', if at all possible. this is for a personal project that I plan to make public when I complete it. #Accessibility #HTML #Web #Religion #Judaism

dear lazyweb: is there a modern text editor that has a reasonable AI/LLM policy? (I am not, at time of writing, able to disclose Adélie's policy, but the gist of it is that contributors must be completely transparent about any LLM usage and demonstrate an understanding of what exactly they are contributing.) this inquiry brought to you by: this fucking shit. https://bsky.app/profile/majormcdoom.bsky.social/post/3mkvqyjtlqc25

hey folks, it's about that time of the month again. I was able to get my server bill taken care of, but I'm almost out of food—I have just rice and a few potatoes rn. I need at least 35$ to buy groceries without Walmart charging a $7 'below minimum' fee. any amount helps.

cool. I guess I'm going to need to legally yell at Social Security and/or my insurance provider. Sunday afternoon, I messaged my insurance: In recent telephone communications, I have been repeatedly misgendered and did not feel comfortable speaking up to request that my gender identity is respected. Is there somewhere I can put my title and pronouns in order to avoid this in the future? this morning, I got back: Thank you for informing us of your concerns. I sincerely apologize for the e...
