Open up this picture fully.

Then look at the surface of Mars.

Then look up to the top right.

Spot Mars' moon Phobos high in the sky.

Then notice the bright spot beside Phobos.

That's Earth.

I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

Oh wait! Figured out how to get rid of the garbage Gemini button in Chrome:

- Unpin

Gone!

Sigh.

Still, I'm *probably* not going to turn Google's Smart Features back on.

(Despite the huge pain in the ass this created in my inbox.)

because they have trained themselves to think of politics as a social game in which they are participants, and not as something that determines whether people live or die
Why is the American political press so specifically terrible about communicating stakes and shit

I don’t care if you’re a relative, a fantasy novelist, or an elected official, transphobia is manufactured outrage and transphobe are trash.

None of America’s problems are cause by trans people. None.

But a LOT are caused by bigots.

Why do we think Blue Sky will be different than other social media sites? I can easily see the same ugly dynamics play out as they start adding advertising and subscriptions. We who use these platforms should form alliances that have conditions attached to our participation.
