Yeah. I'm so vested in it by this point, nearly 36,000 notes over the years. Not sure how I'd ever migrate to a new platform or if I'd just have to abandon my old notes. I have a lot of records there that I have to maintain. I'm pretty much stuck.

TBF, my MIL was highly intelligent, a therapist who worked until she was 82, and fairly good with computers for someone her age. Part of her problem was vision, particularly when entering credit card info on her iPhone.

For sure. Though in the case of my mother-in-law I handled all the techie stuff while my wife did the physical care (which was much harder).

Sad and beautiful essay. Deeply moving. I had thought my daughter would inherit a much better world. But no.

Very sobering thread. Thank you for sharing. Seems like it’s a culmination of a bunch of trends: kids growing up addicted to mobile devices, poor methods of teaching reading in the early grades, general societal disdain for reading longer-form writing, and of course AI. Makes me fear the future.

Ordinarily I like Jess’ perspective. I appreciate what she’s doing to fight the good fight out in rural Missouri. But she’s wrong on this.

Same guy saying he will “permanently pause” migration which is a contradiction in terms. Yeah, logic is not their strong suit.

He wants to “permanently pause” immigration … uh, that doesn’t make grammatical sense. The least of the issues here, I know, but seems emblematic.
