I’ve been self-hosting an RSS feed reader and have been tying to build up a list of feeds to follow as well. It’s been a messy experience so far. Some feeds push WAY to much (like some newspapers, which will push dozens of articles a day). That drowns out some others who post only occasionally (like webcomics). Organizing the feeds seems necessary, and I’ve done poorly doing that so far.

I’ve added feeds for technical groups I’m interested in (e.g. https://blog.system76.com/rss.xml)

I find that subscribing to political commentators, bloggers, and local newspapers works best, and trying to find news feeds that allow you to filter by topic (e.g. https://www.theguardian.com/world/rss or https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/rss)

Zuck will convince him to keep the ban in place, as he benefits the most. There’s a reason Zuck has kissed the ring.

Danish Cookies for everyone!!

Another story is a bit on the nose now, but is about radicalization caused by a failing medical industry. It was written in 2019.

Cory Doctorow wrote a book called “Radicalized”. One part (there are 4 short stories) is about a rich billionaire who has a bunker when things go to shit, and he invites like 20 people to live with him there, then follows as they fail trying to live there. It’s worth a read

This is Propublica at their best. Definitely read this (they have an audio option as well if you rather)

Fantastic charity/advocacy group there too.

All profits are exported out of the community, instead of staying/swirling about the community.
