Dataviz of the day, so intuitive

I think being self-employed has been great for me but I wouldn't recommend it for most people. It requires a real comfort with being alone, volatile income, and "what does it all mean?" daydreaming with no structures to imply clear answers.

I have nothing to say that matches the gravity of the situation. I just want peace and safety for everyone targeted by the insane whims of a madman.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now): -If you work for ICE. -If you vote for money for ICE. You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Out. Of. Control. If Congress does not step in to curb the abuses of ICE, we're heading to a very bleak place. And time is growing short...

Reading the quote tweets from @jamellebouie.net and others about the Fed payments system today feels eerily similar to early March 2020. Technical experts have upgraded odds of a specific kind of catastrophe from 0.1% to 20%, which is a much bigger leap than the remaining 20% to 100%.

This is how a product eventually gets disrupted: - A paid ad for the thing I searched for - A paid ad for a brand I didn’t search for - Three paid pins for brands I didn’t search for - Zero relevant on-map results

100+ movies down this year (and few notable ones still to go), so I looked back at my year and put together some top fives:

Few things make me appreciate self-employment like going to the movies at 1:15 on a weekday
