My fantasy/scifi/horror mashup:

Pippin is the transporter operator. Everybody gets tuvixed with Shelob.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

It sucks how much medical debt can remain in the wake of someone’s passing.

Watching doc about the 30s. 15k unemployed WWI vets marched on Washington demanding bonuses the gov said they would give them. Senate voted no, gassed them out, rolled tanks down the street after them, and burned down the shanty settlement they'd been staying in. America has not changed much
