Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.
Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Apple Intelligence is making me angry in ways technology never has before. Here’s my phone suggesting I reply to my wife talking about an extremely difficult situation by saying “that sounds frustrating.” Just the most basic-ass ham-fisted AI slop, shoehorned into the most intimate conversations

a cool feature of Apple Intelligence is that it makes every single joyous or emotional thing in your life feel like a status report at a daily standup meeting

I worked for a few years as a legal videographer; the degree of contemptuous zero-effort deceit demonstrated by every health insurance representative was breathtaking. I had one person answer "I don't recall" in response to whether he had a Masters degree, what it was about, and from what college.
The words "deny," "defend" and "depose" were found on shell casings near where Brian Thompson, the CEO of insurance giant UnitedHealthcare, was killed - as in, the legal tactics insurers use to reduce liability or reject claims abcnews.go.com/US/man-shot-...
UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson shot dead in Midtown Manhattan, masked gunman at large

This isn't clickbait nonsense; it's good, solid journalism that was a whole lot of work to prove a story that should outrage everybody.
This story is uh, insane www.cbsnews.com/news/police-...

if they ever catch the UHC CEO shooter guy and bring him to trial, it's going to stall out at the part where they have to find 12 people who haven't been screwed by health insurance for the jury

my favorite Tech Tip is to let all the black friday emails pile up today, and then use gmail's "promotions" tab to select-all and unsubscribe. it's the best day of the year to catch 'em all

it's so weird how one side is always trying to suppress the vote and the other is always trying to expand it, I wonder if it means anything! oh well I guess we'll never figure it out.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows Virginia to engage in a late voter-purge program that two lower courts held is likely illegal under federal law. The Republican appointees did so over the objection of the Democratic appointees.
