All of your most sensitive data and our country’s checkbook are in the hands of an unelected billionaire.
This is the most corrupt administration in history and it’s putting our economy & government in serious jeopardy.
It’s time to speak out and fight back.

Wired is doing the heavy-lift work we need on the biggest story of the moment (far bigger than the new tariffs, as big as that is).

Pulled over on the way home the other day to appreciate how beautiful the frozen river looked. Trying to slow down and appreciate small things when it's so easy to find ugliness right now.

Things I'm focusing on and enjoying this week while I try to avoid Meta platforms: finally started watching Firefly, reading Yellowface by @rfkuang.bsky.social and taking too many pictures of dogs in the snow

OF THE EMPIRE We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.

👎🏼Goodreads, owned by Amazon, fuels its monopoly on books.
👍🏼StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform, offers an ethical, ad-free alternative with mood-based recommendations, user control over data, and a focus on inclusivity. Support diversity over corporate power!
The ability to mark a book as DNF is reason enough for everyone to switch! I've been using it for about a year and I love it!
