I see how this makes sense, but also... what?

Also also: is this a new security behavior, or disclosing something that was happening anyway?

ok but what if vance is a special circumstances agent who to the job of torpedoing their campaign, I mean he's really really really good at that

WHO WANTED THIS.

I JUST WANTED A FASTER HORSE. NOT A FAST TALKING HORSE.

If I ran a dentist practice in 2024 I would simply advertise that we're ADHD-friendly and say up-front that we would just see you and treat you, and would never, ever remark on or shame you for the state of your teeth or how long it's been since you've last seen a dentist

Sarah talking about being the Fox News flavor of the week, and the next week, and then the next week. Ann Coulter wrote about her for _six months_, the president talking about "the disgusting new board member".

(me: this is the shittiest ever kind of parasocial relationship. THAT IS A JOKE)

We're here now.

We choose to live as if the best days of the internet are ahead of us, and they won't stop us.

I am having TOO MANY FEELINGS processing Darius' amazing talk so all I can do right now is tell you how wonderful Gita Jackson's talk is about media and INDEPENDENTLY OWNED ONLINE MEDIA because WORKER OWNED

https://donotreply.cards/en/do-show-your-love-for-independently-owned-online-media

Gita: The WORKERS are what make online media great, not the bosses. The bosses can't blog for shit. WORKERS should be entitled to all that their labor creates, not the HR manager paid a quarter million dollars a year for not even being able to send an email.

At #xoxofest this morning and super excited for @molly0xfff and a reminder to always DO NOT REPLY ABOUT HOW WEB 3.0 IS GOING GREAT

https://donotreply.cards/wo/do-not-reply-about-how-web3-is-going-great-really

Gita continues the theme of being optimistic about what's ahead of us and even a bit embarrassed. I totally get the embarrassment, we've had that hope and optimism beaten out of us and it's difficult to nurture it. But this is a room and a tent full of hundreds of people and we _all feel that optimism too_ and can practice scarily accepting it together.

The best days of the internet are ahead of us.

WE ARE THE WEB and right now I feel the most hopeful that we can take back and make back what can be good... the signs are already there, I'm so fucking excited about these tiny green shoots we're seeing and nurturing together built in motivating anger and the deepest love and non-bullshit connection

https://donotreply.cards/en/do-post-about-how-we-take-back-the-internet-together

I mean, fuck's sake, I'm _liveblogging a conference talk_ and swear to god _this_ is the optimistic one, the hopeful liveblogging , not the kind from 20 years or more ago...

Erin's talking about the Covid Tracking Project and how every day the team would wake up wanting to see the CDC finally get their data together...

Oh boy let me tell you How Hard It is To Build Government Technology and infrastructure like “knowing how many people have covid" and “where are vaccines”:

#xoxofest2024 #xoxo #xoxofest

(Me: The dirty secret of a volunteer organization with SO MUCH MORE LATITUDE and ability and capacity to build infrastructure, because the institutional belief that the U.S. shouldn't even *have* functional government in the first place and hollowed it out. It's a fucking disgrace.

Erin's point: without the social internet, volunteers *wouldn't have been able* to organize to build the tracking site. It's the people. Always has been.gif
