There was a time when I would have paid for an ad-free Meta experience. Knowing Metaโ€™s true nature, thereโ€™s no point. The only real solution is to not use their products at all.

Ad-free Instagram would be like visiting a shopping mall at 3AM. Certainly less noisy, but still soulless and empty.

Maybe Rex Tillerson Was Right. Maybe Trump Really Is Just A Moron. His lying and temper tantrums aside, evidence abounds that the president's most important, and dangerous, feature is his ignorance.

This is a painful read. I mean seriously painful. But itโ€™s also a must-read, and must-share, for everyone.

File this under โ€œduhโ€. Anyone whoโ€™s spent any time in European cities knows this intuitively, and it becomes especially evident when they get home to Canadaโ€™s ridiculous sprawling suburbs.

I prefer the *concept* of ebooks (an infinite library in the Palm of my hands) but practically speaking, hard copies win 100 times out of 100. Tactile, less distracting, that smellโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s Paradise Lost as Climate Change Remakes Europeโ€™s Summers

It was inevitable for things to come to this.

Having visited Barcelona twice (both times in the off-season) I'm thrilled to have been fortunate enough to go but cannot help but feel complicit in the exacerbation of the scourge of over-tourism.
