Thiel is also behind the far right trad wife magazine Evie & a period tracker called 28. So beware out there as to who is behind things that are gathering your data. 😳

Thank you for this Wired. You just earned my paid subscription too. Those of us with any disposable income left at all need to be really strategic at where we spend. This move is stellar for democracy and freedom of speech.

The bit of this that makes the post feel like human attention is silly, but real. The use of *word* for emphasis is something i can't picture other news sources doing, but it's casually normal, and has been for a decade at this point, among regular people.

Does tuning into your guys YouTube channel and watching your content there help at all? The auto complete interviews is a great series tbh (could get some better questions and see about a mix of the whatever support series with the user questions as well?)

Oh, I don't believe our dear leader(s) would do something so underhanded. The scum ... er, salt of the earth that is this "administration" is, after all, gaining world-wide admiration for its progressive policies. Oh, they're actually fascistic policies? Never mind.
