More studies in hyperfocal distance. It's crazy how much detail you can push into your focal plane when you don't actually focus on anything in specific! This stuff still blows my mind, and I feel every photo I take using hyperfocal distance focusing has a hyperreal energy to it.

Good Cop/Bad Cop is a show that's much better than it has any right to be. It's a CW dramedy set in Washington State (yay for the #PNW setting!) now available on Netflix, and it rules because the writing is very clever and amusing, and the cast is all a bit kooky/weird/fun in an eye-rolly sort of way.
It's also wonderful to see Leighton Meester shine in a TV role after watching The Orville do her character dirty. (“Twice in a Lifetime” made me so mad, I'm *still* angry about it!)
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Important to note, many communities across the country are seeing a surge in ICE+CBP activity.
Notably new ICE tactics being talked about in West Virginia where ICE is working with local and state cops to setup at what look like DUI check points only to harass people about their status.
There's also rumors of ICE using toll booths in WVa to check plates to search for vulnerable people to target quite literally down the road.

In WA state I'm hearing rumours that ICE did some door-to-door knocking the past two days throughout the state.
Of course Portland is still also dealing with the recent attempted murder of two of their residents.
Today the Luis David Nino-Moncada who was shot alongside his wife by border patrol last week was charged for daring to survive.
Many many Americans are seeing and feeling this surge.

It's always a good day for a walk or a ride along the Springwater Corridor!
Minneapolis public schools have cancelled classes today and for the rest of fhe week due to ICE activity yesterday that may have targeted a teacher AFTER ICE had already murdered Renne Good.
Another Seattle vigil honoring Renee Good is planned tonight on the waterfront.
This is definitely in the performative category of protesting but could be a safe entry point for folks new to activism.
It's clear this bullshit is going to trigger a lot of domestic protests in the US.
Seattle's two No War march starts in 30mins. We'll see how quickly the US protest mobilize this weekend.
This will likely bring together an extremely intersectional set of interest groups

Major shout out to all of the #meshcore nerds, I actually first heard about the attack on Venezuela over the public chat here in the PNW. Look at that, the mesh being a social service and all :)
I post about these types of figures early and often bc we know how the US will use these types of people to manufacture consent.
The real trick of Machado is that she' holds a few "liberal values" by some US standards that some Americans may be fooled into believing she represents some sort of progressive support of US intervention.
Machado is ok with gay marriage & abortion only in case of rape or medical need. She likes public schools.
Still a fash tho.

Hello internet, I've been lurking for a while but let's try an #introduction.
I'm a recovering tumblr girlie (does fandom exist on mastodon? for better or worse?) who likes #reading, #knitting, and cross-country #skiing as soon as there's enough snow here the #PNW.
I believe in tech that helps build a more liberatory future and want to know what abolitionist, anit-authoritarian #datascience might look like.
