I am an old man, @mozilla.org, and I was happy to sit in my rocking chair and use Firefox until sunset. But if you insist on choking this browser with GenAI bloat, I will face God and walk backwards into Linux.
@mozilla.org I have been using Firefox for YEARS. Not sure what the new CEO is hoping to achieve by "AI everything now" but if the hope is to drive people like me off your browser, you will surely succeed.

She-Ra *and* Kipo? this is insane. they're netflix originals, removing them is akin to vaporizing them entirely.
‘She-Ra and the Princesses of Power’ is scheduled to leave Netflix on February 21, 2026.

“What does wild-caught shrimp cost?

All the species you see here die for this little handful.

In every single case where someone has said to me "what do you mean Ocean Ramsey isn't a science educator? She's the one who taught me ____," the thing that they've supposedly learned from her is obviously and unequivocally factually incorrect. Every single time.
What Ocean Ramsey does is not shark science or conservation: some brief thoughts on “the Shark Whisperer” documentary

I think about this every day. I read nonstop, audio and paper books, occasional PDFs. It is my joy and my survival. Watching the richest assholes on Earth gleefully work to eliminate literacy knifes my heart the way dying glaciers and balmy Januarys and the extinction of the slender-billed curlew do
Think about how you are in the shrinking bubble of people who know how to read and process the meanings of written words, and how a handful of billionaires are doing their damnedest to shrink it further.

You're in a literacy bubble, and a handful of the wealthiest freaks in history are killing it.

This always drives me a little nuts about people posting that quote. He is talking to children, and it's good advice for children. But you are an adult. You are not supposed to look for the helpers. You are supposed to BE a helper
An important addendum to "look for the helpers" is "and then join them."

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

When my grandmother was 9 years old, she and her family lived in Texas and they were extremely poor. She lived with her mother and stepfather and three sisters. My great-grandmother made all their clothes, and they scrimped on everything so that they had enough to eat.
