Everyone’s saying RIP MTV because they “won’t play music videos anymore.” But maybe hold them accountable for ushering in the reality TV era instead. That was the real death spiral. Culture has not been better for it.

If this year was about getting off US tech, 2026 is the year to reassess the digital revolution — what works, what doesn’t; what to keep, and what to reject.

I’ve only just started to consider what needs to change about how I use digital technology, but I’m excited to learn more next year.
We need to reassess our relationship to digital tech

Here is the Republican’s anti-woke machine in progress. They’ll say they’re not racist, but actions speak.

It is time for European nations to expel the American Battle Monuments Commission until those overseeing the graves AND CONGRESS stand up for ALL the dead.

Fiber conduit is poking out of the ground on all the adjacent roads like tulips in Keukenhoff Gardens.

My area was awarded 400 million to Amazon Kuiper. How can you give money to a project that 1. Isn’t fiber and 2. To a company without even a rocket to launch their kit?

I see bsky.app is anxiously reminding me that age verification laws require me to prove my age.

The government does little to protect my identity and neither do companies who have that information. Fix that problem first.

Whatta tool. BOOKS Sam, books. Those things you used to train your magical mystery machine is how every parent did it before you.

"Brett Kavanaugh had six figures in credit card debt shortly before he was confirmed to the Supreme Court" is one of those things that will live rent-free in my head forever because I quite literally have represented someone in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy over substantially less debt.

Talk about tone deaf:

“It cites data showing people are politically divided and also ready for change. It calls for a $250 million promotional campaign — an amount similar in scale to a blockbuster movie push”

Problems caused by that dynamic duo, Koch bros

“Some allies have taken those signals seriously, suggesting that they are exploring legal or political pathways to make it happen — a possibility dismissed by most constitutional scholars.”

Supreme court is a Trump lap dog and you just ignore the Constitution.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
