A Caring Economy Requires Building Bridgesโ€”Not Burning Them


...One of Ai-jen Pooโ€™s role models is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who understood very well the advantages of combative organizing models as well as the power of joining with your one-time enemies to build bridges toward change. Now, in the shadow of the civil rights era, as opponents of fairness and justice rev up with increasing hatred and vitriol, a new generation of organizersโ€”notably led by women of colorโ€”is innovating new approaches to organizing that borrow from these deep and old notions of community and love. They point the way forward toward a future that is better for all through a politics and practice that potentially engages everyone in achieving change.

Two days left to apply to be part of AMRO 2026 (Art Meets Radical Openness), a wonderful festival in Linz, Austria, that deepens thinking around critical technologies and art.

It is one of the best events I have attended, and only happens once every 2 years. This year's theme is 'Becoming Unreadable'.

I have to admit, the performance of a Chromium-based browser compared to Firefox is abysmal. I don't have that many tabs but it lags a lot and the browser constantly puts tabs in hibernation to save memory--something I've never needed with Firefox. So all of you Chrome users live like this? No wonder RAM is in high demand.

UgoogledChromium is lighter on memory than both firefox and vivaldi.

It also is quiet, aka not transmitting your data anywhere unless you tell it to do so.

Gosh it is nice to hear some real gospel sometimes. Thanks @jamestalarico.bsky.social nytimes.com/2026/01/13/opinionโ€ฆ



most english prefixes have a single, unchanging meaning (more or less, don't @ me about "inflammable"). anti-blah is always in opposition to blah. pre-blah is always before blah.

the "girl" suffix is an outlier. the "girl" in "girlboss" (assertive, independent) has little in common with the "girl" in "girldinner" (hasty, improper), which has little in common with the girl in "girlfriend" (partner who is a woman). the "girl" prefix is exceedingly useful for creating new distinguished categories, but unlike other prefixes, it has no fixed meaning. i therefore propose we use the "girl" prefix to distinguish words with competing definitions:

  • a "roguelike" is no longer "a game like rogue". to refer to these "traditional" or "old school" roguelikes, we can use the term "girlroguelike".
  • the kudzu-like spread of US english has corrupted "truck" to mean "ute caricature". what the brits call a "lorry", the rest of us should call a "girltruck".
  • one of computer chips, poker chips, potato chips (hot), potato chips (cold), or golf chips will become "girlchips".

how was the performance on your end? For me, it was not very playable with around 10 FPS. But I think that's my software combination that caused that. I run Wayland (Hyprland) + NVIDIA drivers.
