I’m deeply grateful for Bill Moyers’ PBS work, his ceaseless voice of opposition to corporate media and how he turned public television into a classroom of ideas, urging us to question, connect and care. I hope his clarity, compassion and integrity will leave an enduring mark on the media landscape.

I was told in messages of caw-caws that all crows are beautiful and crows want to melt ICE.

Dear Vancouver, BC,

Your city is very lovely. I came to Canada yesterday and within hours I accidentally broke a law and fed some crows before I saw the sign saying not to. But the crows were REALLY cute! And I feed crow friends everywhere. I hope you can forgive me. Your country is very nice.

Sometimes you have to throw together a quick fake news story for a project. In these times, my love for 90s pop culture comes through.
THE CYBER TIMES August 10, 1988 Zero Cool Convicted in Landmark Cybercrime Case Young hacker faces significant consequences in controversial ruling BY LOYD BLANKENSHIP Yesterday marked the conclusion of a landmark trial involving 11-year-old hacker prodigy Dade Murphy, known by his alias "Zero Cool." Murphy was convicted on multiple counts related to a devastating cyberattack that caused the crash of 1,507 computer systems, sending shockwaves through the digital and financial sectors. Critics argue that Murphy's extraordinary skills should have been nurtured rather than criminalized, especially at a time when computers are becoming more essential to daily life. The controversial conviction, made under the recently enacted Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) of 1986, has ignited widespread debate about how society treats young tech enthusiasts who push boundaries in their curiosity. The late 1980s seem to mark a significant turning point in digital culture and law, with the CFAA establishing harsher penalties for cyber-related crimes. Educators and technology advocates highlight the importance of distinguishing malicious intent from youthful exploration, urging the legal system to adapt and foster innovation instead of suppressing it.

As a nonbinary person, I’m so glad I can no longer fill out a FASFA honestly. When do we become great again? Because it sure feels like our country spotted great and is running as fas as possible in the opposite direction.
A screenshot from doge.gov (which is basically a twitter feed) with a tweet from Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok: “Online FAFSA application forms for student aid are still listing the option to select "nonbinary" for a student's gender. The US government only recognizes two sexes: Male and Female. This needs to be changed immediately” This is retweeted by Department of Government Efficiency @DOGE: “Fixed.” Below the word is a screenshot of a page from the FASFA page that now only shows male and female as an option.

If you know me, you know I love payphones. If you don’t—well, now you do.

Earlier this week I spotted this Qwest Fortress payphone sitting in a wooden wall-mounted cubby booth. You don’t see these in the wild much anymore, especially in this kind of pristine condition!
