Adults love to talk about the impact of technology on kids, but we so rarely listen to the kids themselves. Next week's Wayfinding event is trying to change that: a panel of teenagers talking about their relationship with technology. Join us on Wednesday

Wayfinding will be back on Feb 11th with Bianca Wylie and Hillary Hartley in conversation about civics. luma.com/wayfinding2

I'm really stoked to be doing this!

I wanted to make a post about how we have Dominion at @1rg.space but none of the photos turned out. How do I best photograph a board game?! Should i have taken more pics of @centralwinger.com laying down cards?

So impressed with the amount of care and work that Rachel is putting into this @1rg.space incubator project! She's building a peer-to-peer learning platform and launching an experiment for the next 4 weeks - tell all your 20 something friends! lu.ma/hp1ocad3

I've noticed some of my old @signal.org groups suddenly getting new banner photos out of nowhere that seem AI generated. Is this happening to anyone else? Is @signal.org running some kind of AI experiment or are different unrelated friends trolling me at once?
