Desks are killing us is what I'm saying. Ban them.
“Take regular breaks, walk around, go for a walking meeting, use the stairs, take regular breaks when driving long distances, or use that lunch hour to get away from the desk and do some movement.”

I hope actblue re-evaluates their entire m.o. because they are currently standing on my last nerve. Their over the top communication routine is, IMHO, bad enough but they've inspired copy cats, some of which are straight-up grifters. I've donated directly to the campaign is there even a reason for actblue anymore? It's like even more annoying MailChimp.
Gonna track down the contact for the CEO and give them a taste of their own medicine. #politics #USA #venting
Think you're going to be able to access all your cat pictures^H^H^H very important files in 10,20 years? Maybe if you're lucky. The US National Archives has a handy framework to help figure it out and it's just been updated. On GitHub, get some.
Also check out those groovy terminals, mmmmm vintage IBM.
