There is a new blog post entitled “Doubting the ‘Fox News bubble.’”

As news goes, it’s pretty fucking slow, at least in terms of something actually worth paying attention to. But in case you missed them:
- The mysterious expectation that elites give a damn (August 1, 2020)
- The expendable worker (July 5, 2020, corrected July 8, 2020 and updated through August 4, 2020)
- Keeping the poor, poor, even when they serve their country (May 27, 2020)

I’m pretty unhappy with WordPress right now. When I first signed up to host my blogs on it, it worked well. Now, it’s horrible. It’s slow—my god, it is slow—and it loses posts. The workflow has become atrocious. This has mostly been gradual, but recently they rammed a new interface down my throat, which might address issues I’d had pasting HTML, but has made everything else worse.
What I’m paying for is what it was when I first signed up for it. What I’m now getting is something else, something awful, entirely.
