I just watched #Netflix #fractured and I'm not sure if I like it or hate it, but it definitely wasn't good for my blood pressure.

WASHINGTON – President Joe #Biden’s agenda, from abortion rights to climate change and more, will largely be #blunted in the new #Congress, with his party’s grip on #CapitolHill loosening for the first time since taking office.

With a #fractured 51-seat #majority in the #Senate and his party in the minority in the #House of Representatives, Biden will find himself with fewer allies.

@geofon I follow this to see that the #earth is a #fractured place..on a daily basis.

Only glad it's not flat or bits would be floating off

A perfect picture of the #fractured and #non-functional GOP that Donald #Trump has left in his absence. Maybe rejecting McCarthy is a perfect start to getting the #GOP back to the party it used to be.

Netanyahu's new crew
Very strict about who is a Jew
May fracture our people

As each day goes by, piling suffering on suffering, I have more and more confidence in my #greedybastardshypothesis in relation to health inequalities and my characterisation of contemporary British society as #fractured. #sociology

@miles I generally avoid self-linking, but if these themes (#fractured #cultural #shared #experience and the impact of #technology on that) appeal to you, I think you might enjoy this short story, written in #Obsidian and inspired by musings on #PMK techniques:

Fractured
------------

I have a broken soul
I’ve never known why
Empty, alone, and longing
Longing for something
Something I can’t quite see
Something I don’t understand
When you know why
Why it is broken
There is hope
That it can be fixed
That it can be made whole
But when it is a mystery?
You prod at this

That Fortnite Chapter 3 Finale #Fractured event was amazing. Still hoping that #Fortnite will be playable on Linux soon, with some hybrid between client side anticheat and server side anticheat.

Does #Google and #Facebook have the power to bring down the Internet as we know it, and following from that destroy the #economy and/or society?

Even #banks *outside the US* rely on Google infrastructure for various operations.

Many say that #society is already #fractured by #algorithms used by these #corporateBehemoths.

Would it be wise to factor into any #riskAssessment, the loss of Google?
