I've been a web developer since 1999, and I've been on the indieweb since 2015. This site is a commonplace book for all my online activity and will eventually be a home for archives of all of my online content.

One day, a future generation will look back and wonder how Americans were convinced to threaten to kill other Americans for a failed real-estate developer who tried to steal an election - and who hates the people who adore him. https://t.co/qTjwjb6931

Young comedians aren’t going to want to gain massive attention by triggering people? Of all the Chappelle takes this might be the stupidest. The number 1 iTunes song right now is a play on Fuck Joe Biden that has the line “I wish I could take you in the back play smear the queer” https://t.co/Z92TwjnKRv

I was just talking about this earlier today: I'm not arguing that no one has ever had their career ruined over bullshit. I am specifically refuting the claim that these cases represent a threat to democracy.https://t.co/w9wjMYUU6o

“How were we supposed to know that the people we activated politically to fight against civil rights, gay marriage, and abortion rights, would end up not stopping where we said they should?”

reminder that despite conservatives' recent posturing and #rebrand nobody is more easily triggered, nobody demands more safe spaces, and nobody is more hostile to free speech and free inquiry

I think ACF is a useful plugin, but if I manage to get through the rest of my life without remediating another site that's overwhelmingly driven by ACF I will die happy.

I joined a party that asserted it took pride in not being afraid of dictators and left a party afraid of books by a Nobel Prize winner. @GlennYoungkin is a coward.

I’ve lost the thread. Were they trying to overthrow the government or just on a nice little tour of the Capitol complex? It’s so hard to stay on message. But at least they’re still on brand. https://t.co/H7BzZUtHL2

You CAN NOT win the game of 'optics' when your opponent will just make things up to get mad at you about.

It doesn't really matter how civil or respectable trans people are in this climate transphobes just kick up a mound of dirt, call it a hill and to pretend to die on it. https://t.co/km2imek9JC

What’s next after we cancel Beloved?
Will the statues of Toni Morrison be taken down?

*checks earpiece* - “there aren’t any statues of Toni Morrison”

Oh.

Thanks for writing this karl. in my experience, accessibility grades, as currently doled out, end up being useless and a source of let's say extra necessary management of expectations. twitter.com/karlgroves/sta…

This sounds like an awesome idea until you consider the accessibility complications. twitter.com/jeffr0/status/…

The rapid shift from "why is everyone an easily triggered snowflake participation trophy recipient" to "we gotta ban these books because my senior in high school had nightmares" is more indication that maybe the former was a bad faith operation all along https://t.co/x3RLz6NtvX

I have an extremely maximalist perspective on what kids read and I'm aware many people may not agree with that but don't make political ads about how your senior in high school had nightmares from reading Toni Morrison

This was obvious, but it’s always good to note it when it happens - the NYPD’s brutal crackdowns on BLM protestors last summer was them being mad that anyone would challenge their conduct, not keeping peace or order. https://t.co/VImwn6MPDs

Glenn Youngkin shares the powerful story of how a white teen and his mother were traumatized by reading Pulitzer Prize-winning descriptions of how Black slaves were actually abused, in real life

Amazing to think that Blake and Laura Murphy lived to share their tale https://t.co/S5qojkF87a
