Good morning! On this first Tuesday in February, you are all invited to read through Wikipedia’s List of common misconceptions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions) per ancient xkcd custom.
Also, the 'cloned' text in the wrapper element is in an aria-hidden element, of course; I haven't quite figured out the correct ARIA roles for the expanding button (given that it's kind of a button but also kind of a summary). Suggestions welcome!

TIL that the reddit community "Eyebleach" is about sharing cute things to cleanse your eyes / psyche, not about posting things that require you to cleanse your eyes / psyche / take psychic damage
The trick is that the <details> is contained within a wrapper div with identical styling to the <summary> (ie. the 'button') and identical text contents, except the wrapper div is invisible and position:relative, with the <details> being position:absolute and anchored against the wrapper's top left corner.
This means that the wrapper essentially 'reserves' the space for the button, while the <details> element can freely expand without disrupting anything because its absolute positioning takes it out of the content flow
A lot of CSS hackery later, and I've managed to construct a popover dialog using a <details> element that doesn't disrupt the button order and also doesn't require any JS to work!

fellow miners & crafters, I took the time to write down all my minecraft related bookmarks that I've been using over the years.
from websites where you can download resourcepacks, datapacks, and mods - all the way to tools with which you can generate maps, commands, block-palettes and more!
make sure to check out the respective project's linked patreon & ko-fi sites if you have some money to spare to keep those tools alive

re: uspol, trans, prisons (MORE good news)
BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked President Trump's executive order forcibly to detransition trans women inmates and transfer them to men's prisons, citing the 8th amendment prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.

uspol/trans/important
A bunch of people owe me an apology for saying I was overreacting, paranoid, blackpilled, and even ‘acting depressed’ when I said this was the logical consequence of the EO issued. I don’t think any of them will apologize and I’d much rather not have been right.
Anyway: IF YOU ARE TRANS DO NOT TRAVEL TO THE US

If you got some bandwidth to share and want to help archive the web, set up an ArchiveTeam Warrior docker. It will download stuff and upload it to the Internet Archive. They and I recommend to use "ArchiveTeam's Choice", but you can set it work on specific projects like "US Government".

feeling overwhelmed/tired/anxious? got 5 minutes?
find a carpeted area or make a soft spot with a blanket on the floor, next to a chair, couch or ottoman. lay on your back on the floor & set your lower legs on the chair with knees bent.
rest your arms comfortably, maybe making space for chest muscles to open by widening them and letting your palms face up.
breathe and let your body release gravity. set a timer for 5-15 minutes. notice how you feel when you get up again!

Links bestuur, rechts beleid
Ach ja, een nieuwe linkse partij, daar zitten we op te wachten. Niet zomaar een steeds nauwer samengaan van PvdA en GroenLinks, tot en met fusie. Nee, daadwerkelijk een partij die in de plaats van de twee voorgangers dient te komen. Dat stelt GroenLinks-PvdA Tweede Kamerlid Habtamu de Hoop voor.(1) Aanvoerder van de linkse partijcombinatie Frans Timmermans voelt er wel wat voor en heeft zelfs haast met de uitvoering van het idee(2) Onder zijn leiding, ook dat nog.(3 Wat een vernieuwing zal dat worden!
Ze gaan maar lekker hun gang. Maar een nieuwe linkse lente ervan verwachten? Neuh. Alsof die nieuwe linkse partij iets gaat bieden dat de voorgangers ervan ook niet geboden hebben en vervolgens willens en wetens verwaarloosd of erger. Alsof zo’n nieuwe partij niet eenzelfde treurig traject zal gaan afleggen, maar vermoedelijk wat sneller dan de voorgangers dat deden. Alsof het probleem met parlementair links gelegen is in gebrek aan elan en aan vernieuwing. Alsof links in partijformaat en links aan de regering wezenlijk iets anders kan – en heel vaak zelfs wil! – bieden dan een variant van rechts beleid.

If you are in the US, threatened by the current administration, and need some kind of help with something, send me a DM and I'll see what I can do.
(For reference, I am in the Netherlands)
