I don't miss Spotify much, but I do miss being able to control the playback on one computer from a different computer. It was so useful in the classroom. Airplay just isn't the same.

This is the most impactful thing one can do to protest corporate caving to autocracy. Canceling Disney and Hulu subscriptions. I suggest you do the same. Now. And boost messaging like this to friends. Push back hard.

I haven't shopped at Target for a looong time, but I justified going in there to buy a stack of their loss-leader notebooks for my students who show up to school without one. (40 notebooks at 28 cents each is apparently what my convictions are worth.)

As someone who cheered for a high school classmate's success, Chris Pratt's decision to support all the worst people is particularly disappointing.

Today is National Lighthouse Day. This is the Point Robinson lighthouse on Vashon Island, Washington State.
You can rent the lighthouse keeper's quarters, built in 1908, for overnight stays from the Vashon Parks District.
