behold v0.1.0

Released behold v0.1.0 in mattpolicastro/behold

Our cyberpunk future is maybe not so great, so can we just skip to the part where I can have an animated tattoo displaying the a slowly spinning Deus Ex 2000 logo?

I hate that I’m viscerally responding to them using the Jimmy Neutron/Fairly Oddparents crossover art on top of the visceral hatred I normally feel for these memelording tools

So, what happens if I'm a parent and I know that my kid needs highly paid teachers, a library full of books with diverse characters, trans-inclusive bathrooms and extracurriculars, and a curriculum unpacking topics like systemic racism, colonial oppression, economic inequality, and climate change?
