As part of #100DaysToOffload I am offloading my overloaded tabs and bookmarks. If I stick with this being a regular series sometimes I'll have stuff to say and sometimes just list links for future reference. #1000TabsToOffload

Off My Phone:

1. Warped Front Pages: Researchers examine the self-serving fiction of ‘objective’ political news https://www.cjr.org/analysis/election-politics-front-pages.php Saved but not read because I believe in its veracity already. Kept open for possible future reference, and because of a nostalgic fondness for CJR. They covered my college humor mag when I was in charge, back when print was fun and influential.

2. https://mstdn.mx/explore Memo to self: make a feed or list or whatever it takes to get this instance's local feed in my home. It combines things I love: Mexico, the fediverse, and trying to learn Spanish.

3. https://www.citationneeded.news/citation-needed-has-a-new-home/ A lot of good places left Substack to protest that site's blech. Maybe I want to start reading Molly White regularly.

4. https://yacy.eskimo.com/ I'm always looking at alternative web search sites

5. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/artificium#Latin I'm always pondering the etymological connection of art, artifice, artificial, etc.

6. https://paper.wf/how2b/ One of my own other blog spaces. Why am I keeping it open? Probably to remind myself that at least one person is subscribed and not to forget it now that I'm posting here daily. (See ADHD & creativity.)

7. https://dotart.blog/humanissome/mutual-appreciation Another of my preexisting blog spaces I need to tidy up.

8. Funk & Soul Radio DJ'd by actor from Red Dwarf https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Craig_Charles_Funk_and_Soul_Show I recently watched Red Dwarf for the first time and wondered what the lead actor was up to now. I feel like I should check this show out! Show page at BBC.

9. https://www.plutobooks.com/9780745346977/platform-socialism/ Probably a book recommendation from Mastodon.

10. https://diversebooks.org/resources/addressing-book-challenges/ We Need Diverse Books' resources to fight when books are challenged.

11. https://live.space/ A link from an artist I like on the fediverse led me to this platform. Is it for me? Based on this image of the site's landing page I would say no.

Laptop: 1. https://just-tech.ssrc.org/articles/an-ethical-internet/ 2. https://www.poetryfoundation.org 3. https://fallows.substack.com/p/the-court-cant-heal-itself-part-2 4. https://www.aaronland.info/weblog/2023/11/11/therapy/ blog 5. https://alycia-pirmohamed.com poet
