Sometime in mid-2015, my old aggregation reader got shut down I had to jump ship over to Flipboard. The most annoying part of this journey has been the total reset of my blacklist of news outlets and topics. Content farming, hat-tipping and "some shit somebody said on Twitter" is just spam delivered differently, and its frustrating that historically respected media has taken so long to think about not only the impact on their value, but how it impacts their core values.

Beyond my recreated blacklists, so much garbage has narrowed my focus and sources. NYTimes, a few RSS feeds, HN for tech. Hopefully, as with books, the culture will begin to correct course.

(Gonna break out my cane and start waving at some kids any moment now)
