1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

Some more goodies from my folks- I thought I had all the political buttons, but there were more. George Wallace, Goldwater, “Reagan knew, and forgot”, Cleveland and McKinley, and Elvis and Archie Bunker for prez pins.
Quaint artifacts from the pre-internet campaigns.

My folks are downsizing so I get boxes of stuff. An envelope had a cardboard menu for a restaurant that I’m pretty sure my grandma was a waitress at. Opened it up to find an Ernie Banks signature, dated 1977. #Cubs #ChicagoCubs

Headed towards South Lake Tahoe for 2nd triathlon of the weekend. Some thunder and lightning but should pass before the morning. One more week of heavy effort til I dial it back for France. Listening to a good Detroit #Tigers game on the radio.
