For the longest time I’ve been one of those people who “tracks” things. Steps, calories, exercise, habit streaks, that kind of thing. You name it, I probably tried to track it. I’ve decided it’s time for a change! I’m wandering into the world of 🤷. After 2 days I can report that I kind of love it.

like there are so many very practical and obvious moral atrocities in the world worth attention, and yet everyone is putting all this mental and emotional effort into trying to work out if the datacenter deserves human rights we don't even afford immigrant neighbors. It's obscene.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano
