@gurugk we should talk sometime about what to do with Tumblr. Blogging & photo sharing are taken already. If not sold, it should let you make a home page collage about your identity. A more creative, meme-equipped About.me, less regimented than Insta/Pinterest
Every other app is too engagement-greedy and single-purpose to let you link out everywhere or post all content types. NewHive was a bit too much MS Paint but on the right track techcrunch.com/2013/01/17/new…
Whatever happens, don't sell Tumblr to Pornhub owner Mindgeek, which is known for exploiting porn performers by letting its streaming sites pirate videos made by its own studios, cutting out the actors from royalties

This is one of the most important pieces I’ve ever written. The FTC must free the social graph techcrunch.com/2019/05/12/fri…
The ultimate way to coerce Facebook to treat users better is to require it be easy to bring your friendships when you switch social networks 2/
Regulations are toothless against Facebook if users have no alternative. The FTC can’t build Its own competitor, but it can pave the road to them. 3/

Here's the gist of the Facebook lawsuit: Rankwave allegedly sucked in Fb data with an app for checking your "Social Influencer Score", then used it to help clients target you with ads techcrunch.com/2019/05/10/fac…
Rankwave openly promoted its ability to extract contact info & ad targeting from Facebook data. When Fb got suspicious, it took 9 months to act. Both failures show why Fb buried this news friday night techcrunch.com/2019/05/10/fac…
Disturbingly similar to Cambridge Analytica's personality quiz, Rankwave sucked in Facebook user data with a "get your Social Influencer Score" app

1. The focus right now is understandably on Kavanaugh but don't sleep on Stephen Miller, who is quietly working to destroy the American dream.

A radical proposal was unveiled this Friday.

Let's discuss.

2. On Friday, Trump unveiled a proposal that would give a huge advantage to immigrants that are already pretty wealthy.

A family of 4 would make the cutoff if they earn $62,750 or more.

This is more than the median household income in the US

3. On the flip side, anyone who gets sick or needs help will be denied permanent legal status.

If you use nutrition assistance or medicaid or Medicare prescription drug benefits, you are out

Looking at my #Gucci, it's about that time. It's #Cancer time. (Older heads will know, I likely don't literally have a Gucci. But a stroll down hip-hop memory lane is apt for this sign, no?)
And this is special for me since there might be folks of a particular sign, either by Sun, moon or rising, who are your Ride-or-die folks. Well, #Cancers are mine. I don't have to go looking for them or that. It just happens. Consistently. So, they're dear people for me.
Once consciousness has explored dimensions of risk & curiosity in #Gemini, it seeks out safety, responsibility, containment & renewal in #Cancer

no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied

Prosecution laying out their case against Rachid: “He provided an unstoppable and hatefilled flow of encouragement for others to commit acts of terror... attacks with vehicles, explosive devices, bombs, chemicals, any attack you can imagine one person committing on their own.”
Prosecution: “Rashid’s suggestions included injecting poison into ice creams stocked in super market freezers and targeting #PrinceGeorge as he attended his first day of school.”
Prosecution says Rashid was in contact with Omar Ali Hussain, the high profile jihadi who was a Morrison’s security guard from High Wycombe. Now in Syria with IS. #PrinceGeorgeTerror
