Jia Tolentino: My Brain Finally Broke. “The phone eats time; it makes us live the way people do inside a casino” and with IRL current events like Trump & Gaza, “a chill sets in at some point, then a grimness, then a detachment”. Yes, all of this. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-weekend-essay/my-brain-finally-broke

My Brain Finally Broke

Much of what we see now is fake, and the reality we face is full of horrors. Jia Tolentino writes that more and more of the world is slipping beyond her comprehension.

Stay determined. Pace yourself, support yourself first, then support others.

Penzeys Spices sends an open letter to #Target:

"I feel for you. You want to find a spot to be where everyone is happy with you. But that spot no longer exists. Now no one is happy with you. You have what seem like very hard decisions to make...

I also know the decisions you need to make are not hard at all because you really only have one path forward. The Trump-voting, anti-#DEI crowd will never be your customers. They’ve never trusted you."
