Pages 292-293 of Cory Doctorow’s book _Enshittification_ in trade paper

Almost done reading @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy ‘s excellent book _Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It_, available at finer bookstores everywhere, as well as on monopoly electronic retail sites that should be condemned to the scrap heap of history.

Black History is American History.

Republican extremists want to whitewash our struggle, our journey and our substantial contributions to the nation.

We will never let that happen.

Trump and Musk are trying to illegally shut down an agency established by Congress.

Shuttering USAID will have a disastrous global impact. This reckless move not only threatens our national security and public safety, but will cost many Americans their jobs.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

As someone who studies misinformation, I often find that people love to point out even the smallest mistakes I make online—and honestly, I welcome it! Studying misinformation doesn’t make me immune to bias or the occasional lapse in judgment.

A black-coated Labrador Retriever puppy looks lovingly up at the camera from a polite sit. It’s clear from blurting that the puppy is washing its tail.

It doesn’t appear to move for me. Perhaps because I have deuteranomaly?

An example of Acción Ortográfica Quito doing the Lord's work (graffiti on a wall corrected with red spray paint)

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

NEW PODCAST:
Misinformation Blah Blah Blah.

Can we move beyond simply talking about misinfo to doing something about it? @jonathanjarry.bsky.social & I chat with @tnfalpha.bsky.social to discuss Critica's toolkit when interacting with people online.
