  • It’s really a good question.

    Most of us have this little rectangle of light wired into our brain via our optic nerves almost Johnny mnemonic datajack style, delivering a steady flow of whatever creates a mix of chemicals in our brain most likely to make us stay jacked-in as long as possible.

    We’re at work on our phones, between calls, while shitting, while doing the dishes… in commute, during dinner - even with someone, both on our phones - while we fucking watch tv, in our bed…

    Frankly it’s amazing we’re accomplishing anything at all as a society…













  • I so very very very much hope the 300 fired journalists unite to form a journalist/newspaper co-op, co-owned by all of them, with a public good mandate, not owned by a billionaire…

    They’d have something rare: Instant credibility, massive talent & experience and a ton of audience curiosity. They’d be able to create a truly independent organization, maybe even bring in Bill Owens who resigned from 60 minutes, and if they needed $ for co-op lawyers etc, I’m 100% certain that they’d crush a GoFundMe campaign target…

    Fuck if someone know anyone who is in the fired 300, pleaaaase plead to them to consider this…
