Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor: Four Decades of Scandal A timeline of Vanity Fair’s archival coverage about the disgraced royal.

And while I don’t! believe in Phrenology I now do pay some attention to how the shapes of peoples heads relates to their intellect and steadiness, or lack thereof.”

Some professional news:

Breaking News Consumer's Handbook 1. In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong. 2. Don't trust anonymous sources. 3. Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information. 4. There's almost never a second shooter. 5. Pay attention to the language the media uses. - "We are getting reports"... could mean anything. - "We are seeking confirmation"... means they don't haveit. - "[News outlet] has learned"... means it has a scoop or is going out on a limb. 6. Look for news outlets close to the incident. 7. Compare multiple sources. 8. Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers. 9. Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.

It's Don't Argue Inside Your Head With Other People Friday. There's no better day to practice gently moving your mind away when you find yourself arguing inside your head w/someone who's not present, or who it's not safe or not fair for you to argue with. Do this as many times as you need.

It used to be that the user just went to a website and the website did the thing.

I don't understand why we now have to go to a landing page and then click "Go to app," as if the webpage is itself an app. It's a website for a SaaS product!
