Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It’s been 80 years since the Liberation of Auschwitz and this is probably the last time the anniversary will be marked with survivors present. This makes it more important for those of who knew or knew of survivors to continue to testify to the truth and horror of the Holocaust.
Sorry, the marketplace of ideas is closed. Welcome to the pawnshop of delusions.
there is _nothing_ as delightful as Victorian Era prose.

New study finds 52 million metric tons of plastic waste produced per year.

That amount of pollution is enough to fill New York City’s Central Park with waste as high as the Empire State Building, according to the study.

Enough is enough! Quit buying plastic and they’ll quit making it.

Kroger now admits it jacked up milk and egg prices above inflation.

Millions of shoppers had no choice but to accept it.

This is what happens when five companies dominate over 60% of American grocery sales.

Minimal competition means maximized price gouging.

I have a controversial opinion. And I can't keep quiet about it anymore:

Everyone should have to spend their teen years writing their own game engine. Preferably for an embedded system.

Happy 248th birthday, America. I pray that we can all work together from now on so that all Americans can enjoy the same level of liberty and justice.

I think I'm becoming utterly disillusioned on tech stuff lately. I'm hugely aware of the "you like stuff you grew up with" and "you have less patience for stuff as you age" biases, but even so...

Streaming is shit.
Searching is shit.
Researching is shit.
Shopping is shit.
Troubleshooting is shit.
My phone is shit. Autocorrect, touchscreen keyboards, Bluetooth, AI, Android Auto, Spotify, all shit.

It's not even capitalism or consumerism, I'm just tired of arguing and fighting with things I own.

Me: “So, what should we do this morning?”
