Hope he convinced him to use RSS.
The newsletters are free - maybe that’s the way to go?

Samuel Alito Complains That the Leaked Roe Decision Made the Justices ‘Targets for Assassination’
Sorry Sam …. not convinced.
All the people with guns agree with overturning Roe-Wade - so where’s the threat?
You know who I feel sorry for?
Nerine Skinner.
Her fledgling career… gone. At a stroke. Without so much as a by your leave
His first public speech.
A tribute to Truss.
Grateful to BoJo.
No mention of Brexit as a contributor to the issues of the UK.
… Doesn’t auger well… But let’s see.
I keep trying the new Spark Desktop for mail - and it isn’t sticking. I might just get rid of all Spark - and just use Apple Mail. It serves me well.
I do like that Feedland is ‘dynamic’ - and by that, I mean that when I post something - and then later make a change - that change is reflected in Feedland. #NICE
The Glass Cliff
What absolute crap and drivel …
“ Britain’s current dumpster fire (i.e. the British Pound reached its lowest level against the US Dollar in its entire history last week) began a long time before Truss came on board. She inherited the mess; she didn’t create it.
I am fully aware of the Glass Cliff problem - this is not an example.
Yes - she inherited a mess. She then doubled down to make it worse.
Just added 🎥 Blind Ambition to my watch list.
I recently watched 🎥 Uncorked .. which has nothing to do with Blind Ambition - but have you noticed how studios often release related / competitive movies at the same time?
‘Like 13-year-olds invented a sport’: face-slapping league gets go-ahead in Vegas.
Filed in the ‘you can’t make this up’ bucket.
If you saw this headline yesterday

Alrighty then!
The tuning of feedland categories to provide a microblog stream is going to get messsy quickly … maybe I will put a second account up that only follows microbloggers.
🎥 Everything Everywhere All at Once, 2022 - ★★★★
One of those multiverse movies that isn’t your usual. Well worth a watch. No disappointment.
🎥 The Gray Man, 2022 - ★★★
Let’s watch The Gray Man I suggested. We did, both of us looking at the arch other throughout .. the story seemed familiar. And then it didn’t. And then it did. We watched to the end. It was familiar because we’d watched it already. Just didn’t remember. And now … the following morning. Here we are again. Still not knowing what it was about.
I just tried to signup for Hypothes.is after seeing a quick exchange twixt @AndySylvester and @chrisaldrich and when i got there discovered that I had already signed up and had forgotten all about it.
And then I saw that Readwise just launched ‘public annotations’.
