Even the @BBC no longer willing to believe police, puts "armed" in quotes: bbc.com/news/world-us-canada… #AntonioMartin

Revisiting “Information Doesn’t Want to Be Free” and saw this bit of news. Wondering what @doctorow would say about what has changed, and what hasn’t.
A federal judge has ordered all US ISPs to block three pirate streaming services operated by defendants who never showed up to court and hid behind false identities. trib.al/0K5TKa5

I imagine @neilhimself might also have some slightly updated notions related to technology, sci-fi pulps, dandelions, and such.
Doing this thing tomorrow (as moderator) – see you there!

Geographers, journalists, academics, etc. still use words like remote, far, distant, etc. without citing where is the centre of their map. We have imagined audiences when we write. We also have imagined maps. Far, but for whom?

To most, Dec 29 is just another day between Christmas and New Years. But for American Indians like me, it's the day 146 Sioux were massacred at Wounded Knee. 100 years would pass before the U.S. apologized. We have a duty to commemorate the victims and atone for that injustice.

This was such a great conversation! Co-hosted this with @amystretten.
ICYMI: As we head into a holiday built on the erasure and genocide of Indigenous peoples, be sure to check out this recent conversation Decolonizing Journalism: Media By, For and About Indigenous Peoples youtu.be/rMyG-LgV7Ow

Will be co-moderating this conversation about decolonizing journalism with @amystretten tomorrow, feat. multimedia producer and journalist Suzette Brewer + @IndianCountry Editor @TrahantReports. These two have incredible ideas about journalism – join us tomorrow to hear them!
There is no shortage of stories to tell, yet Indigenous news rarely makes headlines in mainstream media. Why is this and how do we change it? This is an event you don't want to miss. Register. ↓ newmarkj.io/qwxF50GPk21
What would have really happened if @LilNasX took his horse to the Old Town Road. 🐴
To all the people who demand more police to deal with the crime downtown, maybe you should check and see if the ones we have are too busy responding to the "major threat" of a black man on a horse. 🙄 kmov.com/news/police-officer…

Let’s start calling them “wealth ambassadors” or “public-facing wealth advocates” or “entry-level wealth specialists”
Celebrities are not the pinnacle of wealth, they are a distraction from it. When was the last time you hear someone critique Jim Walton or Steve Ballmer or Jacqueline Mars? Steve Ballmer has the wealth of about 150 Beyoncés.
