Genuine question: why don’t I like scrolling reels/TikTok/short-form video? I know it’s supposed to be addicting and people end up doing it for hours. I get that it‘s cleverly designed and algorithmed. But I never found it appealing at all. I’m generally just annoyed by SFVs; at best I might …

Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."

Interesting ... I wonder if any other universities not a million miles away from here could possibly be doing something similar
A new analysis of the UC’s financials, records, policies, acquisitions and investment assets shows it's likely in the strongest financial position in its 150-year history, and calls into question the claims of financial distress made last year to justify hiring freeze, layoffs, and tuition hikes.

Dear Ann -- how is it with you? I hope you are not feeling too sad about the way the world's going. It's a beastly miserable business, yes, but maybe we can make something good out of it. After all it *is* a war against fascism ...

You can be an ordinary, decent person who loves and is loved and cares about their community and the federal government will kill you and call you a domestic terrorist.
You will someday have to answer to your children and grandchildren about what you did from this point.

I just finished reading The Murder of Professor Schlick by David Edmonds. Thinking today about the effects of Nazism on the Vienna Circle, how and why some of them saw what was coming and others didn‘t. Thinking today (again) about my own contingency plans to move continents if and when necessary.
