Here’s the bigger ask I mentioned: I owe $6k in back rent. I’ve been selling my limited belongings to reduce the number but it is slow going and I can’t hope to cover it all, especially not in the short time I have. I have enough to cover October rent and little more. More details below.

This is horrifying and exactly what a lot of us have been warning against for years. So fucking frustrating. We could have had better—politically, technologically, socially, and economically. We need far better leadership in all fields, at all levels.

to get our data they can't escape the need to take up space in our lives. Meta glasses, shitty pendants, any vehicle for cameras and microphones and sensors has to be physical, and browser-based SaaS doesn't get enough access to what's on our computers.
