Count on Me (Ann Cavlovic) Tia is a single mom raising a child while grappling with aging parents and a brother who is taking over their accounts, house, and medical decisions. Set in Canada, this is a gorgeous novel about family entanglements, mothering, and trying to survive in a complex world.

Córy Doctorow with another verbal bullseye: pluralistic.net/2026/01/13/n...

I'm sorry. As a technology writer, I'm supposed to be telling you that this bet will some day pay off, because one day we will have shoveled so many words into the word-guessing program that it wakes up and learns how to actually do the jobs it is failing spectacularly at today. This is a proposition akin to the idea that if we keep breeding horses to run faster and faster, one of them will give birth to a locomotive. Humans possess intelligence, and machines do not. The difference between a human and a word-guessing program isn't how many words the human knows.

I'm sorry. I know that when we talk about "digital sovereignty," we're obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.

A little late, but tensions between love and money seem to (unfortunately) stick around in our news. My fictional treatment of that in a family was discussed with Shawn as his "mystery guest" a few months ago!
