I don’t know about
y’all, but there’s been a lot going on in recent days. While my brain is intent
on learning about the battles of 2020, including the ones against coronavirus
and for racial justice, sometimes it just needs a break from the news. During those times, I
binge on TV for a while. These past few weeks, I’ve binged on Mozart in the Jungle.
After falling in love
with the show, I got my heart broken when I abruptly found out it had been
cancelled. Why, Amazon, why.
As I shake off the
pain of that cancelation, let’s get to it. Gizmodo had some really amazing
stories this week, and we’ve chosen the best ones just for you!
For those of you who
going out to protest for against police brutality and for racial justice this
week, I highly recommend our piece that explains why
your phone is a goldmine of hidden data for cops. Although it is frankly
scary to see how much authorities can learn about you from just your phone,
there are ways to limit your digital exposure.
The protests and the
horrifying tactics used to disperse them also inspired another blog on tear
gas, which is one of the substances being used by police. Tear
gas is a chemical weapon that is banned for use in warfare, but it’s still being used against
protestors. Additionally, some experts say it could worsen the coronavirus
pandemic.
To end on a lighter
note, I really enjoyed our blog on how Netflix’s
Cowboy Bebop relates to the original.
I used to watch that show as a kid, and I am so curious to see what this new version will be like. Fans can rest
assured: Ein will be played by a corgi.
