Been thinking a lot about jazz and baseball today. Wanted to share that a lot of the big bandleaders would buy their musicians uniforms/equipment and formed an unofficial league to play each other. Apparently Duke Ellington kept a guy on the tour bus who was just there to pitch.

The most important Oscar speech tonight wasn’t about film. The director of “Mr. Nobody Against Putin” just said this from the stage: “You lose your country through countless small acts of complicity. When we act complicit when a government murders people on the streets. When oligarchs take over the media and control how we produce and consume it. We all face a moral choice. But even a nobody is more powerful than you think.” He was talking about Russia. The audience knew he was talking about America too. Elon Musk owns the platform you’re reading this on. David Ellison is buying CNN — Pete Hegseth said it will be “far better” when he does. The DOGE deposition videos were removed from YouTube. The Epstein files are sealed. The Pentagon won’t release a casualty count. Countless small acts of complicity. That’s how you lose it. A nobody is more powerful than you think. Never stop connecting the dots.

It’s important that you understand what happened last night. Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue. In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired. CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.” In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump. But censorship always backfires. Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

My new essay - about the wonderful documentary Drop Dead City and why watching it feels like looking at the reels of your own home movies - the films of the 70s. For @AWFJ
Alliance of Women Film Journalists@AWFJ

50 years ago New York City was on the edge of bankruptcy, dangerous and decrepit. Wonderful #FearCity doc #DropDeadCity from #MichaelRohatyn & #PeterYost about the 1975 fiscal crisis is a retelling of this pivotal moment in NYC history. @idapost reviews: awfj.org/blog/2026/02/0…

Your phone isn’t personal. It’s a data sensor with a camera. In 2026, privacy isn’t a feature. It’s a fight. If you haven’t audited your device, you’re not the user. You’re the product. Here’s the 18-step Ghost Protocol to take your phone back.

An amazing article came out yesterday. Seven German journalism students, as a continuation of their OSINT course project, tracked the movements of ships with Russian crews off the coasts of the Netherlands and Germany and linked them to swarms of drones appearing over European military airfields and other strategic sites. The guys not only analyzed thousands of data points, but also used leaked documents, established connections with sources in European agencies, and drove 2,500 km across three countries chasing one of the ships – even launching their own drone to fly over it. At the end of the article, there’s precise data on the vessels, so you can follow them yourself. This is journalism of the highest order – straight from the bureau of weights and measures.

Cory Doctorow NO LONGER ON TWIT TER
In my book *Enshittification*, I develop the concept of "giant teddybears," a scam that has been transposed from carnival midway games to digital platforms. The EU has just fined Elon Musk $140m for running a giant teddybear scam on Twitter: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20… 1/

I’m sitting with about 100 public defenders from every corner of the U.S. Blue states, red states. Large and small counties. You need to know something deeply disturbing.
