“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

Tomorrow I will defeat my family.

It's the time of year again -- time to do your holiday shopping from independent artists. It's more important than ever to support people actually making stuff! If you're an artist or craftsperson of any kind, please reply to this with what you make and a link to your store and I'll share it!

I was not put on this earth to work. I was put here to get a new hobby every week and then move on as soon as I get even a little bit good at it

FRIEDMAN: Is it accurate that at least 80% of the calls that went to FEMA call centers on July 7 went unanswered? RICHARDSON: When the tragedy struck, ah-- F: It's a yes or not question RICHARDSON: The majority of the calls were answered at the call centers F: That's not what the report says

PBS News is not going anywhere. We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air. We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.

A lot of people think the bill has already passed (no one's shared with me yet where they're getting that information). IT HASN'T! And it's very important to share the info today and tomorrow. People will take fewer actions and be quieter if they think it's a fait accompli. LET'S BE LOUD!

The rule of law

Roose in particular is a mindless tech booster who falls for every hype cycle, even NFTs and the Metaverse.

“i asked chat gpt” “i asked grok” Jeeves would kill you where you stand

We will all be worse off if we let Donald Trump and his fascist regime undermine the rule of law.

Warms the heart to see “AI made this person nuts” and “this other person is in deranged romantic love with AI” news stories running alongside “AI is here to stay” tech columns. Looking forward to no one knowing how to do anything by the time I’m whatever descriptor has replaced “retirement age”

Awful time to be alive but truly an amazing time to be a hater

Lorde and Kesha are both releasing albums this year. Recession pop is SO back

Businesses forcing Ai on employees is infuriating. At least with previous techbro scams—the NFTs, the crypt—you didn’t have to get involved unless you bought into the lie. But now with AI, they’ve has decided the problem isn’t that they’re selling shitty scams, it’s that they gave us a choice.

We tend to assume boredom is something to be avoided, but in centuries past you would go wandering through the woods or stare at the walls of a cave for an hour and accidentally invent beer or a new religion or write Alice in Wonderland.

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org

Happy Independent Bookstore day. Everything wonderful about my career I owe to independent bookstore operators and librarians. They have supported and championed my work as long as I’ve been writing. Without independent bookstores and libraries I don’t know where I’d be.

happy Good Friday to all who observe

There is nothing comforting about “I’m just as scared as you” coming from the legislative branch that’s supposed to keep checks and balances on the executive. While she thought it was relatable, it is actually mortifying.

We’re on track for collapse and I didn’t get to roar one time :/

If you love your library, listen up…

Sure, practicing a craft for years is pretty cool but have you ever felt the complete unbridled joy that comes from doing something low stakes that you truly suck at?

Honestly so annoyed that I changed my name on some documents but got too lazy to do them all and now my ability to vote is fighting with my lack of follow through

“We are so back” - previously eradicated communicable and childhood diseases

we should abolish credit scores and replace them with a new system where everyone is given a library card and you receive prizes for checking out a certain number of books. please hire me to run the economy

One of the great tragedies of our time is that people are getting actively dumber, and that this is something we've chosen. We could be the smartest generation in history, we have all the treasures of knowledge at our fingertips, and yet we choose not to think, or learn.

me reading national security secrets bc i've been accidentally added to a group chat

people say The Great Gatsby is “no longer relevant,” but careless people have never been more brazen, or more prominent.

Last day to do this - highly recommend stashing them somewhere just so you have the option lifehacker.com/entertainmen...

This is your reminder to download your kindle books onto a device where you can keep hold of them if Amazon decides to remove them. They'll be removing that option on the 26th of this month. 5 days. So back up your library!

Public libraries are amazing! Did you know you can borrow a book from any library in the country and return it to any other library? Did you know they have subscriptions to huge amounts of national and international media that you can access?

Go read a book.

Honored to announce I’m important enough to have been hacked on Twitter with no access to my old email so. The world ends in fire and ice etc.
