Really great reporting by David Noriega here. Thank you for this. Honest accounts and accuracy should be a given but are all too rare anymore.

Atode – Read it later An independent read it later app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Bookmark and save articles, read everything you saved later with just the essential text and images.

It's only for apple things for now, but I REALLY like Atode reader so far, even better than pocket honestly (and I've used pocket for years) www.atode-reader.com

Alexander Chee: Let's Go

I wrote a pep talk? I started with how I actually feel powerful that an expensive computer program that ate all of my work and that of all writers is still not as good as all of us it stole from. Then I went a few places. Anyway, it's here. mailchi.mp/e87ac78bc7b7...

I just tried to log into mine (MyChart) to do this. As soon as I logged in, a new window popped up forcing me to either agree to their new terms fully allowing sharing, or "If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions, do not access or use MyChart." Ugh!

As humans, we long for stability and continuity, fearing what might be lost amid tides of change. Yet the Earth tells us in many languages that nothing lasts, all is fleeting in an endless cycle of creation and destruction. Read this week’s newsletter. buff.ly/43ffRSs Photo by Zeb Andrews.

Modjeska Simkins School – Know more. Do more. Be more.

www.scpronet.com/modjeskascho... Just had to share that the absolutely fantastic Modjeska Simkins School for Human Rights is about to start their spring session. You can still sign up for a few more days and it can be done completely online if you're not in SC. Can't recommend enough.
