I’ve intuitively felt the need to resist swaths of big tech for some time, but now the concrete importance of doing so is coming more clearly into view. An excerpt from a top thinker influencing the current administration:

newrepublic.com/article/1839...
Screencap that says: He then concluded that the “best humane alternative to genocide” is to “virtualize” these people: Imprison them in “permanent solitary confinement” where, to avoid making them insane, they would be connected to an “immersive virtual-reality interface” so they could “experience a rich, fulfilling life in a completely imaginary world.”

I put these nail wraps on today, but for some reason they are duds and already coming off. Sort of a bummer but also exciting that I’ll try another new style sooner than usual. #nailsky #nailwraps #nailwrapsky

I am changing my nails today and realized I never posted my current nails 🩷🩷🩷 Nail wraps are a small thing that bring me joy #nailsky #nailwrapsky
Photo of my left hand in front of a white wall. I have a navy blue long sleeve with the Champion logo showing. My palm is facing the camera and fingers are bent to display my fingernails, three of which are hot pink, one of which is sparkly silver, and one of which is both pink and silver Photo of strips of pink, silver, and multicolored nail wraps sitting on a wood surface

Silver nails for the start of January. Wraps by Dashing Diva.
#nailwrapsky #nailsky #nailwraps
My left hand with nail wraps on my nails that look like they’re covered in both silver sparkles and reflective silver shards. I’m also wearing a silver wrist band and you can see a gray sweatshirt sleeve.

Big Friday night. I made myself a homemade cheeseburger for the first time. Used a brioche bun and buttered it. 🍔

Is there a #nailwrapsky yet? These white wraps are from Dashing Diva and I like that they look like cable-knit sweaters. #nailwraps
