Pretty fucked how the New York Times keeps interactive articles like "Maps: Tracking the Los Angeles Wildfires" behind a paid firewall at times like these.

Staying informed is less a duty and more a slow, daily form of self-harm.

I spent four years in the healthcare industry, which, if nothing else, teaches you that radicalization is just a natural reaction to a system where people use the phrase “revenue cycle management” without irony.
