In the late 90s, the "Dot-Com Bubble" burst. Pets.com died, and trillions of dollars evaporated. However, the internet did not go away. In fact, the post-bubble internet became more robust, useful, and integrated into daily life than the pre-bubble version.

The way we need to market this shit is to do what conservatives did for the past 30 years and write books like “The ten forbidden truths you’re not allowed to say on politically correct tv” and then it’s just cities are mostly fine and it’s good to get a flu shot
A remarkable trend that will come as a shock to you if your only info about NYC is from this Fox News.

It is kind of wild that no big media outlet has busted open the story of who is making DHS' posts on X. Whoever that may be is certainly plugged into hardcore white supremacist internet propaganda with a harder edge. "Groyper" would be underselling it. This is Daily Stormer-tier sludge.

NY needs whatever a constitutional monarchy on a municipal level is so it can have him continuing to do this in perpetuity while a string of sewer-socialist prime ministers actually govern

Every year, my final @techdirt.com post of the year is about why I'm still optimistic about the future. So here it is, my final post of 2025. And yes, it's still about why I'm optimistic. Because, the only path forward out of this mess is looking at ways to make things better.
Use The Failures Of The Past As Inspiration For A Better Future
Look, I get it. The world is a mess. Important institutions are crumbling. It feels like both the tech and political worlds are collaborating to squeeze all remaining humanity out of all of us. Cynicism is ascendant. Nihilism is the…

Look, I get it. The world is a mess. Important institutions are crumbling. It feels like both the tech and political worlds are collaborating to squeeze all remaining humanity out of all of us. Cynicism is ascendant. Nihilism is the new black. And yet: I remain optimistic. Not the naive, everything-will-work-out-fine kind of optimism. The kind grounded in seeing what's actually happening beneath the surface-level chaos.
