Hey you with the pro-democracy anti-authoritarianism newsletter that you’re publishing on Substack! Yes you. Move your newsletter to Buttondown, Ghost, or beehiiv. Why are you intentionally publishing your work on a platform that funds Nazi speech? Stop doing that please.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers. Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

I know it sucks to have years of hard work building your social media audience wrecked because of a fascist billionaire and his edgelord followers, but you've got to walk away and stop letting your brand's ongoing presence and activity there be used to normalize this

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.

LLMs should never be used in creative endeavors on any level. They shouldn’t be used as a stand-in for any social interaction. Ever. The human experience requires friction. We cannot create without it. We cannot express ourselves or connect without it. Intimacy doesn’t exist without it.

Seattle Sounders made their way to Canada. December 10th on frigid, frozen land. Román Torres sealed the deal with a PK, and Stefan Frei saved us with his all-holy hand. Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, Sounders won, brah, all without a shot on goal.
