just got fucking flash banged by a phone call. My ear is numb. This is probably hitting hard because I have a concussion. I took an Advil like a half hour ago but otherwise I have no idea what I’d be feeling lol
I don’t know if it was intentional (I suspect shit quality telemarketing over malice) but I answered the phone, no one responded, I increased the volume and still didn’t hear anything, put it to my ear, and BAM 💥 “GOOD AFTERNOON AM I SPEAKING TO [not even my name]”

I was genuinely afraid that I was making it up that I have a concussion but no I do confirmed by a doctor and my head being super not worky today and yesterday
yay 🙃
It feels so similar to so many other times I’ve had ‘headache’s, which is why I was second guessing myself. but now I’m kinda afraid of the possibility that I’ve gotten a bunch of concussions (and only recognized this one as ‘real’ because I was able to directly associate it with a physical whiplash) 😵💫🫤🫠
"we must demonstrate that one can leave Zionism and still be part of a Jewish community...
In the meantime, we must be aware of the pain that all this is causing our fellow Jews who have not yet found their way out of the web of false beliefs. As James Baldwin said, “I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”"
@inquiline@jewishvoiceforpeace I feel mixed about this. Like on one hand it’s probably a helpful lens to view the process of reaching more Jews to reflect on their Zionism, but on the other hand: these are adults supporting a colonial genocide despite ready access to copious video evidence of horrific war crimes.

2 photos taken today, by one of my regular #LittleFreeLibrary guests. From a friendly senior lady, who I met 3 years ago, when I first set up my LFL. She's been telling folks about it since the first time we met & visits my LFL at least once a week. I gift her flowers & random fun goodies for her 4 grandchildren, when I have extras available to share. I've made friends with a few of my regular LFL guests 🥰
One of the things that delayed me from becoming nice and pragmatic about code is StackOverflow
Any question like "how do I iterate over a dictionary" and everyone's like "DON'T, use a different collection instead".
Truth is, absolutely iterate over a dictionary. If your way of accessing it during performance critical stuff is by key instead of iteration, you're using it right. There's no harm iterating over it for cleanup stuff in loading or exit code.
