They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

POEM
Me: Listening to Emo for 25 years hasn’t made me THAT dramatic.
Also me, after snow shoveling for an hour and a half in the rain: This jacket is a different color now. Wet Gray, like the world.

Hearing from Tom Brady that he thinks more about losing the Super Bowl to the Giants than all of his wins is exactly what I needed tonight.

Just worked out for the first time since about 2020. I’ve exerted myself since, but always with a purpose. “I need to shovel this snow,” and such. This is the first time in over 4 years that I’ve done this for myself. Also the closest I’ve come to liking it in my 38 years of living. #GestatingGymRat

You should be able to opt out of tech updates forever. I want my stuff frozen in amber. I don’t want AI to summarize emails written to me by other AI. I want off the enshitification rollercoaster. Bring me back to 2009, please.

Woke up at 3:30 AM for no reason and decided to take the early train to work. The down side is that I’m so tired I can barely function and so caffeinated that I’m shaking at a microscopic level. The good news is that no one has tried to perceive me for the last hour and a half. A blessing.

Was cleaning out the fridge because I’m getting ready to go back to work for the new year and am coming to the end of my rot days, when I found a jar of cocktail sauce that expired in April 2022. We moved into our house in May 2022.

I’m just here to say that Mr. Potter is only the third most detestable character in #ItsaWonderfulLife. A genuine sack of shit who should be run out of Bailey Park on a rail, but at least he has the moral clarity to know he’s a bastard.

My work is done for the year, I’m back in my home town. The streets are covered with snow that is picturesque/not treacherous. I am lying in bed my friend’s house, three doors down from where I grew up. Never has my life been more like the first act of a Hallmark Christmas movie.

The nicest fella at work made me miss the train that would have gotten me home 45 minutes early, so unfortunately he’s the subject of a blood feud now. I would love to make an exception, but my Sicilian heritage demands I die mad at this man.

I taught the final session of my fiction class last night. The topic was revision strategies. We spoke about caring for a flawed thing, and through incremental changes, making it the best version of itself. Something I’ve been thinking a lot about lately #Writing

I have the same reaction when there’s a 26 year old on Love is Blind. Like, my sweet cherub, you are not of an age where you need to seriously consider courting a wall.
I just tried to watch "The Ultimatum" and turned it off when I saw that one of the contestants is 25.
At 25, there should be no marriage ultimatums.
Up the age to 28-30+ and raise the stakes!
