Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

There are only a handful of field goal blocks every year—and for some reason, they always seem to happen on critical, late-game kicks. That's not a coincidence—and I talked about why in my first (!) Monday NFL newsletter of the year:

An interesting read, both on whether adopting to climate change as an inevitability is viable, and a demonstration of how over-simplified the stereotype of the British farmer is...

Hertling: His comments about putting hands back on recruits… We moved away from that 30 years ago because it’s ineffective… You know where it didn’t go away? The Russian army.

This year's theme for Cyber Awareness Month is games. I (foolishly) suggested a Dungeons & Dragons themed webinar. ...then got volunteered to run it. Well, I'm using it as an excuse to get a new hat!

Hi! We've made the Put This In Your Ear Object. It is the ideal size and shape to put in your ear, feels really nice when you put it in your ear, and can be used to clean out earwax, by putting it in your ear. Just one thing, though. Under NO circumstances should you put this in your ear.

if we're very lucky, this will be a cautionary tale about how to not run a game empire. but it's still going to devastate the industry even further, and it almost certainly means the end of the mass effect series that i loved so deeply. :(
