Every platform we continue to lose the more we lose access to the friends we could have only made through the internet. Not that we can’t have local people but so many folks I connected through just being able to share my joy with them.

Trump hated TikTok (because China) until it helped him win an election (as even he acknowledges) and now he’s going to save it and take a victory lap. So he’ll have X, TikTok, Insta, and Facebook all working on his behalf. That’s a big difference between now and 2017.

The People’s March is moving through the streets of Washington: “We won’t go back!”
A broad coalition of activists — among them climate, women’s rights, immigration, anti-war, LGBT, D.C. statehood, racial justice — are mobilizing in unison against Trump, three days before his inauguration. 🧵

AI is guzzling gas
Big Tech is paying for gas plants and pipelines to directly power data centers, threatening global climate goals.

Sending good vibes to everyone mourning the loss of TikTok. Everyone of a certain age has been through this on the internet, but very seldom as abruptly and absurdly as this.

Designers, dedicate the first and best hours of your day to yourself.
Too often, I see designers putting themselves last, giving their side projects only the leftover energy after a full day of work.
Begin each day by working on your dream.
This small commitment will transform your life.

I just reached the end of the never ending scroll.
At least when AOL/MySpace died it was a gradual fade away, and they died because we’d moved on.
Next week is gonna be brutal as millions of Americans quit their dopamine of choice cold turkey. Buckle up.
