๐ Stepping Back From the Precipice - Sam Harris
Judging by how much you can read of this before the paywall - I would argue that Sam should make this free for all to read.
Spoiler alert - I am talking about the book by Category Pirates, not Appleโs OSX.
I donโt recommend many business books .. in fact I donโt really recommend any, rather I recommend the authors, based โฆ

Three quick Instas …. that I saved during the week …
๐ ๐ตโ๐ซ Pen Tapping - one day he might have hi own drum set.
๐ ๐ Dave Allen - teaching you how to tell the time.
๐ ๐ A GPS for your car - circa 1971www.instagram.com/reel/C8qR…) - holy mackarel.
It all starts at ๐๏ธ john.philpin.com - which reposts to
๐ Threads and ๐ Bluesky and ๐ Mastodon
Seperately my blog on john.philpin.com is revealed as @me@john.philpin.com on Mastodon - which is also followable - so of course i follow it with my (real) Masto account.
So if i post on Masto with my ‘real’ Masto - my blog’s Masto can see it and so those posts can manually find their way back to the blog …
I can also post a message on Threads and Bluesky BUT those messages would stay in their respective domains โฆ until today.
I just enabled Fediverse sharing on Threads - so now if I post to my blog, like always it gets pushed to Threads - which is now visible on the Fediverse - so I can follow myself with my Threads account on Masto - and I presume vice versa.
I am writing this to get my head straight.
So far - BlueSky is only federated via Bridgy which I am not going to use because there is enough to do now in working out what goes where, why and how on my accounts - and do not get me started on the new accounts I am setting up for The Future Found - where I have already enable the Threads account for Fedi access.
I mean, you’re either ‘all in’ or why bother. Right?
A. There is a lot wrong with that last sentence!
๐ Margaret Sullivan on how the media normalizes Trump .. article by Aaron Rupar - just reiterating my comment over on Substack โฆ
We need more Margarets.
Many of Trumpโs most ardent fans and foes alike believe he is the leader of a political movement with a clear and defined set of principles and goals. They disagree only on whether that agenda is good or bad.
๐ฌ Jonah Goldberg
Twenty Two Years Ago - give or take - my friend Bob told me to take a listen to an album he has just found called ‘In Abstentia’. Still at the top of my memory banks sees me sitting beside โฆ
And kind of related to ๐๏ธ that (the previous post) - but this is ‘Ted’.
