Careless People—a NYT best-seller about Sarah Wynn Williams experience as a Facebook executive in Zuckerberg’s inner circle. I highly recommend it.
They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

The CFPB will begin deleting agency data as soon as today. Meanwhile, the Trump administration and Musk staffers are rewriting history on U.S. government websites and erasing data from databases nationwide—removing information that doesn’t align with their political agenda.

This is an era of conscience and courage. What I can’t tell, at this moment, is whether humans are on the verge of a breakthrough, or if the perpetual struggle between selfishness (fear) and kindness (love) is a bug or a feature.
