Mandaris"Invincible" by Kirsten Arian
Share a song that makes you feel invincible.
One of the best tracks on the Lego Batman soundtrack. It's a fun song that just gets me going.
Every once in a while, attempt to sing the chorus for karma police.

"Nobody Wants to Be Lonely (With Christina Aguilera)" by Ricky Martin
What song do you turn to when you need to cry?
I really enjoy this song because it also gives me hope in the despair. I also think about how Christina Aguilera should be a bigger name in music. She can sing very well, but I think it just comes down to song choice.
IndieWeb Movie Club: June 2025 | dead.garden
Jo has a wonderful post about this month's IndieWeb Movie Club. The movie of the month is Mary Poppins and she's got a very cool easter egg on the page.
Hey all! For this month's IndieWeb Movie Club I encourage people to (re-)watch 1964's Mary Poppins! Especially for those of you with kids this might be a great movie to watch together. Despite being 61 years old I think it holds up very well.
I feel the same way and I’m very happy she suggested this so that I have another reason to watch it.

Just realized that I haven’t run all year.
Sometimes when people say “well, this other platform had this feature for # number of years/releases”, I feel that they don’t think about how we can’t have everything everywhere all at once.
The Mathening
I’ve been thinking about writing a post about math (or maths) for months after hearing about if from Fractal Kitty and her passion for Mathober.
(Un)fortunately, I don’t have any math specific topics that I want to discuss, but I’m not happy with just sitting on an idea when I can share it with you all in case you need it1.
Resources
- Math in Style
- This is my favorite tip about math in the browser. Sarah has several posts about styling math and I encourage you to check it out. I had no idea that this existed and I feel that if you take anything from this post, it should be this. I think this is a great alternative to including something like MathJax.
- Math to MathML
- This is a really cool tool to help get functions into MathML for the site. It also does LaTex if that is what you need.
- MDN: Math
- While you’re looking over the Mozilla documentation, think about giving a donation so that this resource can continue being.

For those who are curious, I haven’t added it to my style sheet for this site yet. It’s a sort of chicken-and-egg issue. ↩︎
I tried on pants without functional pockets and now I’m familiar with all the struggles of what it means to be a woman.
I forgot what I was going to use this library of macOS icons for.
I’m hoping that they can fix this Liquid Glass issue.
