@julesforrest I hope you can turn points in and get candy or erasers to go on top of pencils here are a few that inspire me: jacky.wtf for just being a manifestation of self in design. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/2f9zkc)
Same with sonniesedge.net the design just captures the personality. Plus the copyright snark that changes is worthy of it's own feed. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/12BK1N)
Also have to love aaronparecki.com for the sheer customization and integration of quantified self data, the background changes on location, and the avatar changes based on the emoji in a post, ohh and you can make pixel art. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/2hAP1y)
@jgmac1106 This is a really cool way to display music history: the animation on the dials: tinnitus.robweychert.com/.....amazeballs: (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/m5V37)
If you are into design and BBQ check out how cleverdevil.io documents it all. Plus his design around archiving and months is cool. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/9hqNS)
mjordan.codes is my go to expert on CSS. I enjoy her design, especially the neat use of text. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/Af9GQ)
I love beesbuzz.biz for the design and for the documentation that goes into building the CMS....gets 154,375 PRs to the repo every day. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/1Imw83)
This cat has a pretty simple Tumblr like inspired design: indiewebcat.com (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/raJGb)
@jgmac1106 rosemaryorchard.com puts a lot of time and energy thinking about readability and text. (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/Kuw9U)

People keep asking what they can do.

How can they help

If you are a small business owner one of the best things you can do is make sure you have a good backup and recovery plan

Good back ups are the Victory Gardens of the 21st Century Image
And if your business is considered critical infrastructure

or if you want your insurance to be worth the money you pay.

You need good backups, by demand of law and lawyers

And it means more than just hiring a Cloud Company.

You need to plan Image
Start now

You need to identify the important files you handle and evaluate the common risks to those assets

Know how the data moves, and decide how long you can be down, and how far backups need to go.

Then develop procedures to make sure the plan is done and tested Image

Key moments in Trump's Presidential history

July 1987 upon returning from Moscow he writes a scathing rebuke of NATO and Japan

In 1989, according to KGB "defectors" Trump would place the Central Park Five after some really easy ego stroking Image
Image
By 1994 Trump's russian handlers connected to the Atlantic City Casinos would be floating the idea of a Trump Presidency in the press

Some web history

Do you know the first Internet Bank in history?

It predates Netscape and was called the European Union Bank

Oddly it was established in money laundering HQ of the Caribbean, Antigua in July of 1994... Image
The bank was backed by a million dollar investment from Mikhail Khodorovsky's Menatep Bank and was run by Alexander Konanikhine Image
Kohnankhine hired a ton of ex_KGB as bank executives for his other bank Russian Exchange Bank

The first allowed to purchase foreign currency

To be fair folks did try to kidnap him a bunch

but oopsie, Kohnankhine "surprised" they were mafia money launderers.. so head to America

Kamala Harris worked for McDonalds.

Donald Trump worked for the Mafia.

That is the only comparison that should matter Image
We can roll it all the way back to 1981 and Atlantic City.

Kamala Harris worked for McDonalds

Donald Trump worked for the Mafia

And knew it. Image
Donald Trump and Ray Cohn were doing all kind of illegal mob stuff with Unions

Kamala Harris worked at McDonalds

Donald Trump worked for the Mafia Image

People always ask how did we get here with MAGA and QANON

Want to try and discover "Q" or figure out how Trump brainwashed so many MAGA

Have to go at least back to the turn of century and Nativist political ops that took advantage of 9/11 fear

Like the Minutemen Project Image
The Minutemen Project was founded by Jeff Gilchrist and Chris Simocox

Gilchrist was deeply tied into the @GOP disinfo machine and would write a book on the border problem with russian asset Jerome Corsi

@GOP Chris Simcox was way worse, he would rob everyone, filling Alan Keyes's coffers and then go to jail for 19 years because he molested a five year old

How could folks push so many lies about Haiti?

Have you looked through back issues of the Resister, the Underground Special Forces Magazine of the 90s?

"The RESISTERs opposition to democracy is simply that democracy ultimately must, by definition, result in totalitarianism." Image
The Resister editors weren't to keen on the US role in Haiti

Blames the Black Congressional Caucus Image
Project Freedom in 1994 was supposed to be an American Tienanmen Square Image
