I feel like there isn’t enough discussion around the fact that companies rolling back DEI efforts to appease the current U.S. admin are saying they would rather remind rich white men they’re at the top of the social food chain vs. ensuring marginalized communities know they matter & are valued

Am I becoming jaded, or am I correct in thinking the past couple of years have featured largely horrendous and entirely forgettable Super Bowl ads?

One glimpse at how Americana has changed over time is via past Super Bowl ads. They’re a reflection of what the typical consumer (which, for the Super Bowl, is basically “any person in the U.S.”) finds important at that specific time.
Of course, I find marketing fascinating, so YMMV!

Good tech acts as a tool to help you think outside of the box, not something that traps you inside of a box.

In light of Bluesky’s myriad concerning decisions, I’m finding myself spending increasing amounts of time on Mastodon. I wonder if others feel the same.
Similarly, I’m enjoying the discovery of new voices, and feel my interest in those pledging continued loyalty to Meta and/or Musk is beginning to feel strained. Which I also feel might not be so uncommon.
