Dear Algorithm Book Advisor,
Just because I bought one book about how to murder your boss, doesn’t mean I want every book about how to murder your boss.

The most important work is the work that you aren't hearing about.

There is good work happening.

On many fronts.

Grandson dragged me to a video game movie about some guy in a tin can submarine in a sea of blood. Actually pretty good.

Dear Students, Staff and Families, Our state is hurting. For the second time in less than three weeks, we have watched the senseless killing of a beloved member of our broader community, causing deep pain, fear and unrest across our cities and beyond. Staff, students and community members of color are carrying the impact of these events with them each day. Many are grieving. Many are living with fear. Many are unsure whether it is safe to leave their homes, go to work, bring their children to school, or live their daily lives as they normally would. To those who are being targeted, who feel unseen or unsafe: you are not alone. We see you, we care about you, and we are here to support you.

As Greg has said here, the store's site has crashed from the traffic/flood of orders. But a GofundMe is still live to help with the store's renovation.

"The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone."
adamserwer.bsky.social Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social · 10d
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.
