Electron mines burn coal to find that super special prime. /
Bit and doge computed digits in the cloud throughout the night /
We hope the mighty blockchain will solve our money woes! /

I have read a fiery clickbait writ in burnished rows of bold; /
As ye deal with propaganda so with you my grace shall deal; /
Let the Dudebro born of Rand, crush our morals with his hiel. /
Damn ye, Overton!

I have seen Ads in the side-bars of a thousand media sites, /
They have builded Them an altar in the masthead and the grafs; /
I can watch their righteous vid in the modal overlay. /
Mute that auto-play!

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the great engagement plan. /
It is written so vapid it would offend even the Lord. /
In a most ungodly manner, to create a wild uproar. /
Profit governs all!

ICIJ released the Paradise Papers today, and boy howdy is it big. 13.4 million papers (smaller than their Panama Papers release two years ago, but still).

“If you've already sent a letter, PLEASE copy & paste it to her email as well so the higher up admin get supportive letters too ❤️”
Just got more info about this. @mckellogs@twitter.com says “an admin you can email support too is Joanne Mitchell, Penn's Chief Diversity Officer, at joannm@upenn.edu.”
White supremacists on twitter just doxxed my friend and have convinced the University of Pennsylvania to condemn (and possibly remove her) for talking about pedagogical practices for equity. If you have any standing in academia, please email Kathleen Brown, Beth Wenger, Peter Holquist, and Eve Troutt Powell at UPenn’s history department and tell them what a mistake they’re making.

California just passed and signed a law allowing nonbinary genders on state IDs and no longer requiring a physician’s sworn statement. Goes into effect in 2019.
This is huge news. http://www.sfgate.com/politics/article/Gov-Brown-signs-milestone-gender-recognition-12281097.php
Thursday I fly to Denver for State of the Map, speaking on Saturday.
Sunday I fly to Full Stack Toronto to speak on Monday.
Tuesday I fly to London for Mozfest (on staff as a part of OpenNews running the journalism track).
And return to the US November 1.
This will be my first time flying internationally as trans, but with the wrong name/gender markers. Fun.
Civic Tech Fest is going on in Taipei rn, a few friends are there and I am hugely jealous.
But there are collective notes available: http://beta.hackfoldr.org/civictechfest
