I'm usually hesitant to share too much about my son, Ripley, or his situation but our situation (US, WV/OH) changed last week. Ripley is about 18 months old and we've known since he was born that he would need a #KidneyTransplant once he was big enough. Until last week, our plan was for him to get one of mine. Unfortunately, I was disqualified, so we're on the hunt for a kidney! If you or someone you know would have any interest in being screened, you can visit https://ripley.love (1/2)

It's #WorldKidneyDay!

Our Ripley (US/WV,OH) is on year 2 of nightly dialysis, waiting for a kidney. He started when he was a month old and wouldn't leave the hospital for another two. Dialysis for a child is tough—emergencies, constant evaluations, boxes and boxes of medical supplies everywhere. Interested in donating? Visit https://ripley.love/donate to start.

Share this. Print it and hang it on your door. Shout it from your porch. Every single one of the people you tell could be the one.

I tried this last year and it didn't happen but it's worth another shot! My 2y/o son (US, WV/OH) is waiting for a kidney transplant. We've known since he was born that Ripley would need a #KidneyTransplant once he was big enough but every donor, include myself, has been knocked out of consideration. We've come *so* close to finding a donor but it has not happened yet. If you or someone you know would have any interest in being screened, you can visit https://ripley.love/donate

Boosts appreciated!

@developerjustin Surely, Trump will suggest injecting bleach or using light to disinfect their bodies, right?

@ScottSmithDev Yes! Congratulations, Scott! 🎉

@developerjustin When I think it can’t possibly get worse, it gets worse. I keep hoping to wake from this parody, but, alas, it’s our reality.

I created a macOS utility app to install and launch Planetary System Stacker. If you want to use Planetary System Stacker on macOS, give Andrew’s blog post a read.

@mattiem it’s a total mess.

@charliemchapman How is this not yet your profile photo?

@b3ll Oh, I’ll give that a look. Thanks!

@b3ll Whoa! Last night, I was browsing YouTube, and I came across the video I linked to. There were so many incredible sounds coming from them!

@b3ll In your bio, it states “I make synths.” Synths, as in these? https://youtu.be/wQyHPJ56aNg?si=63uCuTbLdZhkZqLj

I'm currently looking for new iOS developer opportunities, either fulltime or freelance. 15 years experience in iOS, so looking for a senior role. LA-based, remote preferable. Hopefully a product that helps people. ❤️

@BenRiceM nah 😒

This Apple News Live Activity for the U.S. election is anxiety-inducing…

If you wish Harris would take a stand against Netanyahu, I feel you. But I guarantee you Trump will be worse for Muslims and Jews alike. He will be worse for everyone except himself and his closest friends. And if you don’t vote for Harris, he will win. And he’ll probably end up appointing a couple more Supreme Court justices. And the effects will ripple for decades even if he leaves peacefully after four more years.

Americans, TODAY is the day to VOTE for Harris!

First-time voters, I promise you, it's easy, and you will feel good when you've done it! Make the time!
