Like I wanna go back to drunk raccoon trashing liquor store chaos and not… the fascism shaking hands with tech billionaires chaos.

Yesterday I was walking home and I did an unprompted George Costanza laugh after reading a headline and that’s like, level orange chaos threat warning.

I also like the Oura ring. This piece is more about how wearable tech is regulated and how some companies use "wellness" as a catch-all to avoid regulation.

The only way I see it happening is if they find the use case that is so convenient, so appealing to the average person that the theoretical convenience is "worth" the privacy trade off.

So far, I haven't seen that use case for smart glasses.

The number one thing I hear from readers is "Nah, no thanks. Not from Meta" and dude, who can blame them when stories like this come out.

We recognize it's impossible for ordinary people to donate to every single GoFundMe that comes across their social feed. Especially as layoffs increasingly become the norm. But even a signal boost on social media helps and we'd be grateful for those too.

You know, once the air doesn’t feel like it’s stabbing the inside of my lungs while slapping my face.

And I LIKE winter running so you know it’s bad.

I too sometimes end up working in my exercise gear 🥲 I’m not looking forward to building back the fitness I lost but I am looking forward to how clean my brain feels after a run. I miss it.

But then not being able to run, my best stress reliever, just adds to the health issues. Worst catch 22.

I’ve had so many health issues lately and kept having to delay my return to running. And then when I was finally ready the stupid snow and frigid temps have conspired to delay me further :(

I lasted 4 minutes and quit. Indoor workout it is today.

I fear I will never be warm again.

Everything about this adaptation legit made me go “I don’t think we read the same book…”

Nooooo
