Facebook, protests and a whole lot more
We are all processing a lot, because a lot is happening, almost every hour. Many Facebook employees took a virtual hike on Monday to protest the company’s policies around presidential messaging. Plus, the Earth keeps spinning in the sky, but you’ve probably never seen it this way, according to Kai, who invites you to check out a vid on one of his fave websites. All in our show links. And, you absolutely can say something nice. Every day, but especially today. It’s official! See below.
Here are links to some of the stories we talked about today:
- Breaking with Mark Z is not a thing, but today… Facebook employees staged a virtual walkout
- Narrative, tech, point of view — that’s how you can get the news out of Minneapolis
- What is rotating? The Earth? The sky?
- Say Something Nice Day C’mon. You can do it.
None of us is as smart as all of us.
