Why is it always called “disruptive” when working people demand better? Thank you, @adamconover.net , for having me on Factually! to talk about worker exploitation and massive wealth & income inequality as the disruptive forces we need to address.

Adam Conover's new standup special is a hoot. I especially recommend my fellow ADHDers give it a watch (while eating candy and playing a game on their phone, naturally).

Why should we be telling workers that they need to settle with what they have?

DMs now open. And to be clear: I'm looking to create a backup of the entire site recursively, not just a single page. And I want the HTML and CSS, not just the content!

Small gig: I'm looking for someone to help me locally archive my mom's Typepad blogs before they're taken down. She is moving the content to Wordpress but I want to save the current HTML structure / images / etc. I tried wget but it's beyond me. Can pay for time spent. DM me if you're interested!

Amid the maelstrom over Jimmy Kimmel, here’s a key point made by @adamconover.net @joshgondelman.bsky.social:

LOTS of people watch late-night. It’s just that they watch it in clips on Youtube or Tiktok — and studios haven't figured out how to monetize that.

One benefit of getting into film photography is that the sites you go to for vintage camera information have the most gorgeous vintage web design

Using comedy to support people in power is the opposite of what comedy is there for.
