If you're going to skate on thin ice, you may as well dance.

I’m a hacker who’s also an independent publisher and self-hosting advocate. I run The Grist, an independent publication covering technology, civil liberties, and the systems that shape everyday life. My other projects include stickertop.art, a gallery of sticker-covered laptops from across the internet, along with zinedrop.com, a zine discovery directory and dontboo.vote, a civic information dashboard. All of it runs on my own hardware. I speak about resisting centralized control and rebuilding community at various hacker conferences. Decades in hacker and counterculture communities have taught me that the best technology is built to connect, not consume.

Doom tore the front page off of my comic book. He really is evil.

This is looking really good. The buzz is calling it True Detective set in the DC universe. Fingers crossed.
