Merry Christmas and happy new year. It's been a tough year with stress about work, immigration, family. This little corner of the internet always gives me joy, hope, and inspiration to work for a better, kinder world. Hope everyone enjoy the break and start 2026 with energy to keep improving yourself and the world.

Also, I had to turn off firefox's enhanced tracking protection for the font to load. Before that it was unicode tofu.

There are 2 kinds of Christians: Those who actually follow the faith, and those who only show up for Christmas and Easter. There's a German term for that 'Uboot Christen' - submarine Christians. They only emerge twice a year.
Happy Christmas everyone, I’m at 29000 feet on a flight to Hong Kong after a mini version of planes, trains and automobiles and including cancelled planes and taxis to different airports. I’m struck by honestly what a miracle it is that we can travel thousands of miles at hundreds of MPH and have okay internet access and communicate. I don’t think people quite realise how delicate all of the technology is now and how…
Oh man, I love flying over the Pacific Ocean (during the day). There's just so much nothing but water. It's kind of astounding.

Just because old ASCII and ANSI art is often signed by the author, which is something fun I appreciate, see also: https://oldcompcz.github.io/jgs/joan_stark/xmas.html#treewit... And of course, the BBS Documentary: Artscene episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQrBbm5ZMlo&list=PL7nj3G6Jpv...
Merry Christmas and happy new years everyone!
