The Last Living American White Male: A Novel of Obsolescence and Love
The title may make you uncomfortable. That was the point. For the past year, I have been living inside a grey city that exists only in my imagination, spending my days with a garbage man named Robert James Miller and an administrative processing unit named Alma. Today, their story is finally available to readers. The Last Living American White Male…

The House passed this year’s final batch of spending bills on Thursday as lawmakers,
still smarting from last fall’s record 43-day shutdown,
worked to avoid another funding lapse for a broad swath of the federal government.
The four bills total about $1.2 trillion in spending
and now move to the Senate,
with final passage needed next week before a Jan. 30 deadline to avoid a partial government shutdown.
Three of the bills had broad, bipartisan support.

I just wanted to let you all know that the observer who was kidnapped yesterday (start of this thread) was released safely last night. (I say “kidnapped” not as an exaggeration, but as a fact: no part of that resembled a lawful arrest.) Minor scrapes, more determined than ever. Huge relief.
ICE apparently continues to believe that indefinite detention of observers is not something they can get away with yet. They are still generally releasing observers after many long hours but not days, generally with no proper booking and no charges.
Sadly, this is not the case for people they deem sufficiently brown-skinned to deport.

I stopped wearing my #Apple watch last week, replacing it with a simple digital Casio.
Observations so far:
- I miss tapping to pay with my wrist, but the phone is honestly pretty easy to use too.
- Missing notifications has not been a problem even when I’m leaving my phone in the other room. Nothing has been so urgent that I needed to see it immediately
- My ability to focus is already tangibly improving. Yesterday I sat and read Shakespeare for 1.5 hours without interruption - I don’t remember last time I could do something like that!
- I keep instinctively reaching for the charger in the evening thinking I need to take off my watch
- I have tried to swipe down on the Casio to see notifications at least 3 times…

A couple of months ago Bali experienced its worst floods in more than a decade.
-- They came at the peak of the dry season.
Instead of the empty wells farmers faced last year,
this time their crops were washed away;
roads turned into brown, swirling rivers;
houses collapsed in the torrents;
and 17 people were killed.
⭐️Indonesia, the world’s fourth-most populous country, faces a paradox.
Sometimes described as a sleeping giant, it is one of the …

This was "a nightmare scenario," said a firefighter with the Joshua Tree National Park, who also spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.
During the last government shutdown six years ago, the revelation that vandals appeared to have chopped down a few of the Dr. Seuss-esque trees grabbed national headlines.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy cautioned Europe in a speech at Davos,
accusing leaders of being in “Greenland mode”
as they waited for leadership from Donald Trump on Ukraine and other geopolitical crises
rather than taking action themselves.
“Just last year, here in Davos, I ended my speech with the words
-- Europe needs to know how to defend itself,”
Zelenskyy said in a speech at the World Economic Forum.
“A year has passed, and nothing has changed.”

Among them is Amazon subsidiary Ring,
the company behind those AI doorbell cameras that have exploded in popularity over the last few years.
Back in October, Ring announced that its devices would soon be looped into a network of Flock AI surveillance cameras.
That network, an inv…

European countries proposed an alternative Ukraine peace plan on Sunday that omits some of the pro-Russia points made in the original US-backed document and calls for Kyiv’s sovereignty to be respected.
The counter-proposal emerged as US, Ukrainian and international negotiators met in Switzerland.
The 28-point US document leaked last week demands Ukraine hand over territory to Russia, limits the size of its army and agrees not to pursue the Kremlin for alleged war crimes.

This week, in the space of a few hours at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos,

European leaders believe Trump backed down in part because
