    Most people aren’t actually interested in your ideas. They just want to see if you agree with theirs.

    RSS never tracked you.
    Email never throttled you.
    Blogs never begged for dopamine.
    The old web wasn’t perfect.
    But it was yours.

    Anti-vaxx is a classic upper-class luxury belief.

    You reject vaccines, not because you’ve studied the science, but because your zip code has a 97% vaccination rate.

    Google didn’t kill the open web.

    But AI might.

    Because AI doesn’t click.

    And if no one clicks, no one pays.

    And if no one pays, content stops.

      From Penny Press to Protocols: The Structural Shift AI Forces on the Internet
      In 1833, Benjamin Day had a crazy idea. What if newspapers didn't have to cost six cents? What if you could sell them for just one penny and make up the difference somewhere else? This sounds obvious now, but at the time it was radical. Newspapers were expensive because they

    So let me get this straight, Kamala Harris was not allowed to be the President and how dare she not defeat Trump but also Kamala Harris is not allowed to be a private citizen and how dare she not lead the resistance against Trump?

    So just to sum up, the economy is worse, there’s no hurricane relief, there’s no more cancer research, the war on climate change has been set back 10 years, the situation in Gaza is worse, the situation in Ukraine is worse, and everyone hates America but on the other hand…nope, nothing.

    Ross Douthat turned “Interesting Times” into a complimentary transcription service for fascism. When your “interview” reads like a campaign brochure, you’re not a journalist—you’re a publicist.

    It’s not just that Trump officials don’t know how government works.

    It’s that they think you are the fool for expecting them to.

    This year, I founded an indie news blog doing long-form Op-eds.

    It's 100% free and 100% reader funded. No venture capital, no bullshit.

    And it is unapologetically opposed to Nazi fuckery.

    Trump uses antisemitism the way he uses religion, patriotism, and the law:

    To silence his critics and empower his base.

    Nothing more.

    The number of folks on the left who hate Biden more than they hate Trump is both astounding and entirely unsurprising.

    American media won’t say “Republicans are banning books.” They’ll say “A controversial debate over childhood reading habits has ignited tensions in both parties.”

    Email is the cockroach of the internet - it outlives every wave trying to kill it. Forget Slack, forget Discord, forget chat apps. Email is universal, decentralized, and asynchronous. It's not sexy, but it's the ultimate survivor.
