Biggest problem with Canva Affinity and Affinity Paint is that in 2026 I'm still lamenting how much easier it is to do something in Photoshop. I haven't used PS in 10 years.

I do not understand why tv apps aren't connected to their phone counterparts. Like why does YouTube use a QR code to a website to link my account? Now I have to log into the website. Why not let me scan the code with the app already on my phone? Or let me enter the code in the app?

If illegal immigrants are so dangerous and owning a firearm is a constitutional right, and thus a right only afforded to US citizens, I propose that all firearm purchases require a birth certificate to prove citizenship

Some things that require a license: Drive a car Get married Fishing Fly a drone Use a HAM radio (+ an exam) Operate a taco truck Practice massage Things that don't need a license: Guns Gun laws now

I'm of the opinion now that D senators need to approve the CR. But the messaging is critical. Ds must claim credit for getting people paid. Shumer wrought this mess when he caved on the fuckall bill. He can't use this as leverage for extending tax credits.

But Dems can use it as a lightning rod to further their case and the ineptitude of Rs when it comes to healthcare. Dems need to be loud and keep receipts. Rs aren't going to lose seats until their constituents are forced to live with their choices. Fafo. Fight enough to be absolved of blame

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data. We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district. Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

Hey @npr.org here's video posted to Reddit of that ice patrol getting rammed by 10... Wait... Running a truck off the road then rear ending another ice vehicle www.reddit.com/r/illinois/s...

NPR@npr.org

JUST IN: Authorities were on patrol when they were "rammed by 10 cars," according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security. One of the drivers "was armed with a semi-automatic weapon," prompting officers to open fire, DHS said. via @wbez.org

Keep in mind, nearly the entire Democrat constituency (the white, former slave owners that is), which was the majority of the South, switched parties and became Republican when black people started getting voting rights. A party created by rich white men and adopted by racist white men

And not a lie was told. People who commit treason should be treated as such. :s

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

They are not public servants anymore. They are govt sanctioned gangs. They have no interest in service or public welfare

Prosecutors will not bring criminal charges against sheriff’s officers who wrestled a Black man out of a car during a traffic stop and punched him multiple times, the local sheriff said Monday.

The Svelte postpartum continues... Being a diehard Angular fan since v1 I never understood the criticism it got. The learning curve wasn't that bad. But having spent the last 4 years away, 3 in React and this year splitting time between Qwik and Svelte, it is so hard going back to ng

Saddened that I was unable to convince my team to use Svelte for our new project. One member is apparently an Angular zealot. I was a huge ng fan years ago. Loved going to the conferences. But man, there's better, easier ways now. Angular feels so cumbersome in comparison

Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book?  The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….

Super pleased to announce (to no one other than myself) that 157 days after being laid off, I received a job offer. I'm so excited. Even splurged and got the kids Subway tonight lol. I can't wait to get started

It'll never happen, but I'd love to see a passionate, competent director tell the story of Leia as a sequel trilogy taking place between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. There's a couple young actors that would be perfect. Give us the sequels we deserve comicbook.com/movies/news/...

comicbook.comGeorge Lucas' Plan for the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Would Have Made a Controversial ChangeThe original focus for the sequel trilogy was squarely on the shoulders of one of Star Wars’ most enduring and beloved characters: Princess Leia Organa

Aaaaand this is exactly why they are doing it. This will fill the space. Not shitty job numbers. Not Elon Chaos. Not failed trade negotiations. Not the collapsing economy. This. Damn you dumbasses! Fucking learn to control a fucking narrative!

My faith is deeply important to me – it calls me to honor the dignity of every person through love and action. But I also believe in the importance of pluralism, and that we are stronger when we honor the experiences and values of everyone, whether they have a faith or spiritual practice or not.

Asgard is what happens when you take someone's design then try to shoehorn other features into it without the input of the original designer. To each their own but I think they took one of the best looking ships and made it look like ass. It's like a website with too many links in the menu bar

I love how Musk claims that Tesla protesters get fraudulently paid by the govt. Dude, isn't that what your little DOGE club is supposed to find and rout out? So you're admitting you're so bad at your job you can't even prevent fraudulent spending where you claim it's happening

I'm not familiar enough with Canadian politics to know why he's stepping down, but you guys are losing a good man.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau: "Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying murderous dictator. Make that makes sense."

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

As Elon Musk guts entire government agencies and fires thousands of federal workers that deliver vital services to the country, remember that his corporations have received at least $38 billion in government contracts over the past 20 years. Yet will any of this be touched by DOGE? Of course not.
