Today in algorithmic resistance 👇

I can't think of a time when someone spoke so eloquently with their outfit choice as Lewis Hamilton did today & I remain in awe of how wisely he's using the power he has earned. Truly on a completely different level than his peers.

Ah yes, cool, cool. Hey, what happens in year 6?

Oh.

Mr. Zuckerberg was amenable. He signaled to Mr. Miller and his colleagues, including other senior Trump advisers, that he would do nothing to obstruct the Trump agenda, according to three people with knowledge of the meeting, who asked for anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Mr. Zuckerberg said he would instead focus solely on building tech products. Mr. Zuckerberg blamed his former chief operating officer, Sheryl Sandberg, for Facebook’s culture, according to one of the people with knowledge of the meeting. He said new guidelines and a series of layoffs amounted to a reset and that more changes were coming.

It really is such masculine energy to blame things on a woman who no longer works at the company www.nytimes.com/2025/01/16/u...

I wish you seamless travel & many hugs you'll undoubtedly cherish. It may feel like a lonely road but it's really many parallel roads we're traversing, each with their own family & loved ones. 💕

One is the real Timothée, and the other is Timotheé, winner of the TC lookalike contest.

Increasingly it feels like the only way to think about algorithmic media is that it’s a game normal people don’t even know they’re playing

I asked for a sign and did that ask ever deliver...

I am so excited for you! Ours was also a holiday gift several years ago & it's basically a fully privileged family member now. Plus from an engineering perspective it's just built so well that it's hard not to gush about it at every opportunity.

Georgi Gospodinov's Time Shelter. Fantastically timely, beautiful concept. May be my favorite book I've read this year.

In a world that wants women to want less, embracing desire is a radical act Too many women believe they're too old, too busy, or too inexperienced to go after what they really want, but none of that is true

Self-limited aspirations happens when women rationally decide it is not worth the energy, time or mental health to take the next step forward, as I told@shannonrwatts.bsky.social. It is possible to dismantle these beliefs. Check out Shannon's book FIRED UP. shannonwatts.substack.com/p/in-a-world...

Hugs. But also, hey, guess who they'll be sending the tuition etc bills to? 🤪

TIL that hammers can be luxurious. Thank you @nytwirecutter.bsky.social for this life lesson (?)

Me, today, after a week off

(Is @theawkwardyeti.bsky.social here already? Yay!)

Probably.

'Choose what kind of year do you want us to memorize for you' is how I read this...

Someone's blaring Pearl Jam's Black from a car parked up the street at full volume and, friend, I hope you're having a good one 🤗

What on Earth is that? A post in a SaaS group?!

You know I cannot afford this car
Yet you sell me to the brand anyway
Sigh

If you're looking for a fun project, I suggest explaining this ad to a bunch of 10-year olds familiar w/ gardening. Who wants weeds delivered? Why? Why is there an astronaut? What does the moon have to do with weeds? Do phones work in space?

It's harder to create than consume (but some may be intentionally quiet because they may have legal restrictions, a stalker, an unstable or dangerous partner etc)

They have one already though

The 2025 War of the Tims has a nice, historic ring to it ✅

It's either that or Tyrell, I'm afraid 😜

US lawyers will reportedly try to force Google to sell Chrome and unbundle Android The DOJ will try to break up Google.

Hello, Mr Onion? What if you owned a whole browser? 💡

Jealous! Enjoy

I figured they ran out of left labels so wrapped all the way around and landed here. That's the only thing that sort of makes sense 😂

I'll never understand why they decided to use the Instagram graph (the opposite of witty shortform text) instead of WhatsApp's.
