It's less common knowledge than I would have expected, but sunscreen has a best-before date! It's a good idea to check that each season to make sure you don't need to replace it even if there's still some left.

Fortunately, expired sunscreen just gets less effective, not dangerous. You're still more likely to get food poisoning from the salad you put it on than from the expired sunscreen itself.

@bram this looks awesome. I want to build something like this but I don’t have a need/real use for it, and can’t justify the money (hard drives alone are 🤑).

So I’m living vicariously through you!

Australian deported from US says he was ‘targeted’ due to writing on pro-Palestine student protests
Alistair Kitchen says he was detained and questioned about views on Israel and Palestine before being deported from LA to Melbourne

He was lucky. He didn't disappear into an El Salvador gulag. He wasn't chained.

DO NOT VISIT THE USA. IT ISN'T SAFE>

This felt too valuable not to share. Braille-labeled maps of washrooms to help people find and use facilities in the washroom. Everyone deserves to get in, do their business, wash their hands, and get out in peace and safety.

This seems valuable for all public spaces.

So apparently the Bible is super relevant if you're baking a cake for some gay people but not when it comes to helping refugees, immigrants, and the poor people? Gotcha.
