"Sunlight is the best disinfectant" is surely being tested. For example, more people knowing about Hegsteh's preacher: will that reduce his influence or spread his ideas?

"Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty."

The funniest part is that his entire driving force for every decision he’s made in the last ten years is to become the most liked, most popular little birthday boy of all time. And it’s literally made him despised around the world.

Crime rates in all three cities have gone down, and in Baltimore at astounding levels, in part by treating crime as a public health crisis, rather than a "need more cops" crisis. popular.info/p/the-secret...

What Happened When Mark Zuckerberg Moved In Next Door

My latest: Mark Zuckerberg has turned part of Palo Alto into a family compound, buying at least eleven houses and adding a 7,000-square ft basement space, pool with hydro floor and 7-foot statue of his wife.

After eight years of construction, neighbors are fed up.

If you're in the Boston area, here's a 🧡 of local mutual aid groups you can plug in with.

Building local mutual aid infrastructure now, before the next climate disaster hits, is crucial - and it's a great way to meet people and do hands-on, meaningful work.

Go for it! I remember how much work it was to find an Amazon human support number (that's by design).

You probably already know how companies roll out features with some users to test. Maybe that's what's going on here.

That's surprising to me, Michael, but I realized I was thinking a) more locally with lumpy data and b) that this also included all the startup and equity purchases that also have a toxic effect.

Headlines like this ("...like BlackRock") don't help.

Ah, I don't have a biz account. If you have the time, find a way to call a human support person there and take up all of their time. It's a small act of resistance, but can add up to a signal that this change is a costly one for them.

"Get off Paypal" is not the answer here (though I'm moving away from it where I can). Reddit is not being helpful here, aside from other people running into this and not liking it. Not seeing the topic on EFF.

We've done something generationally wrong in the States if so much of our population is happy to see bad things happen as long as it's to "other people".

Started my week by checking C-SPAN and the first Republican caller says "the Jews started the war in Ukraine and why is a Jew running the country". Good sign.

I will believe millions of Brits are on the verge of revolution over immigration when their total rally attendance over the course of 2025 exceeds the 12,500 people who came out to watch a bunch of theatre kids called "Critical Role" play Dungeons and Dragons live at Wembley in 2023.
