Blogroll

So far, none of these are paid or affiliate or referral links. If I do start networking at that level, I’ll call it out specifically.

Culturally, we’ve let the algorithms consume so much of our lives, and replace so much of our souls. A manual list of recommendations from someone you know/like/trust is so much more valuable than whatever a megacorp gives you to try to keep you scrolling. (Sure, there’s plenty of great stuff to be found on the corporate sites, if you’re lucky, but a human recommendation is so much better.)

In no particular order, this is a non-exhaustive list of blogs I read at least occasionally:

• John Scalzi’s Whatever
• Patrick Rothfuss’ Blog
• Jenny Lawson’s The Bloggess
• Cory Doctorow’s Craphound
• Marie Vibbert’s Science Fiction. Mostly.

I also read several emailed newsletters instead of visiting websites:

• Matt Levine’s Money Stuff
• Matt Stoller’s BIG
• Bill Bishop’s Sinocism
• Sam Feller’s Awkward Engineer
• Randall Munroe’s XKCD
• Tim Cotton’s Newslog
• Ryan Holiday’s Daily Stoic
• Matt Kirkland’s Dracula Daily
• Ishmael’s Whale Weekly

My primary news services are:

• New York Times
• NPR
• Puck
• Semafor
• The 51st

I also support several folks on Patreon, but that fluctuates so go see my profile.
