Kenia Hale, a predoctoral fellow, and Payton Croskey, a senior, are members of Princeton’s Ida B. Wells Just Data Lab (created by Dr. Ruha Benjamin), where they research ways people of color can resist digital surveillance.

They led a project called “Liberatory Technology and Digital Marronage.”

How a New Generation Is Combatting Digital Surveillance

Can we in general use Google forms less?

There are other great and more secure options out there and I'm making that shift for both mine and anyone else's data I process as business sake.

Gluttony is a feast for the eyes. This colorway blends elements from the six other sins: the royal purples of Pride, the icy blues of Sloth, the fiery reds of Wrath, the golden shimmer of Greed, the poisonous greens of Envy, and the seductive pinks of Lust.

Two skeins of hand-dyed yarn bursting with a rich blend of colors including purple, red, pink, green, yellow, blue, and black. The tones are deep and saturated, creating a visually striking, multicolored palette that swirls together in vibrant harmony. The skein is neatly twisted and displayed on a white surface with a light gray textured background.

Is it permitted for us to know if the colors will harmonize for use together in a large project?

$400M still in the budget, no one to spend it.

The cruelty is the point.

Pushback works, part gazillion:

"Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices."

How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans

The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.
