Some of the things we work on: #PHP, #REST, #OpenAPI, #OAuth2, #APIGovernance, and more.

We are stewards of our public #APIs, and we collaborate with other capabilities teams to ensure APIs are developed according to our standards and processes. You would work directly with me on a daily basis.

Disabled people rely on social media for connection & companionship.

We might be housebound or bedbound & often have no one in real life who “gets it”

The unrelenting negativity of the news cycle takes a toll on us

If we unplug, we lose our support network. If we come online, we lose our spoons

I’m working on an article about how we can protect our online spaces (and spoons!) in the era of Trump.

How we can find ways to unplug without losing vital community.

Discover strategies for supporting one another in resistance efforts so we can all take breaks when we need to.

I’m working on ideas for resisting, networking & community building in ways that spare as many spoons as possible.

Ways to help people leave toxic social media and find safer online spaces.

I’m thinking about the role we can play in protests & resistance and how to get organizers to include us.

My own spoon deficit is slowing me down, so in the interim I’m going to share some articles from the Archive that I hope can help people rest, recharge and prepare to fight another day.

👆for the record I haven't just eaten toast anyway, I have also had a toaster oven baked potato, an apple, and hot chocolate (yes, full of weed, and also cream).

I have decided pleasure, contentment and repose is a food group and I have been deeply malnourished.

So all my choices are nourishing that.

Somebody (me) was up at stupid o'clock researching: does dexamethasone mess up sleep?

Yes it does, big time. "Changes in sleep architecture" is a fekkin understatement.

Anyway accidentally came across one of the best articles on sleep hygiene and body rhythms I'd seen in ages, so here ya go:
