Reading @chaykak.bsky.social's new book FILTERWORLD and remembering how, a decade ago today, Netflix was certain it had my taste pegged: Its "best guess for Matthew" was that I would give 3.5 stars to whatever this is. (The algorithm has improved a bit since then.)

the other site gets worse by the day... an aroma of fetid swamp... nothing makes sense... is there no stable place left on the internet... it leaves me unable to work, to think... I must abandon it once more... and head to a Swiss sanatorium to convalesce...

there's no expectation of a stable social order... urban real estate prices are unsustainable but income inequality is only increasing... every consumer product is designed for a tiny coterie of uber-wealthy people who increasingly only fetishize price... a man is buying up all of Nantucket...

posting into the vacuum of bsky... listening for echoes of human presence... the internet is a zone of increasingly missed connections... only the chocolate chip cookies are good at this cafe... it seems gauche to bring a personal thermos but I do it anyway...

morning walk in the marshy CT woods... dog frolicked in the water... got weak coffee at a local roaster... plus a lemon biscotti... unseasonably hot... promises to be more of a party than July 4... everyone hates America but we're still not buying cheap property in abandoned European villages...

It seems like we are reverting back to an internet made up of locked-in portals and closed online communities, essentially turning the clock back on 20 years of internet development. Things are gonna suck real bad for a real long time I think.
