Some great stuff here from Oriol Salvador, the first in his series collecting his “thoughts after attending the 3-day Transformation Boost course at Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY, in New York City” earlier this month. This is well worth a read, and this is what’s jumping out at me at least initially:
Social media is still a great (free) place to build your brand and find new audiences that discover you and then proactively seek out your content. You might need to look at different metrics, conversions instead of click-throughs, and please (PLEASE!) ignore vanity metrics like followers or likes. Most likely, you need to re-evaluate your overall content strategy for social media channels, as well. Short vertical video is here to stay…
And:
The key to sustain a digital news venture in this platform-agnostic, ever-changing and challenging environment is to build your own audiences, not relying on third parties. Focus on a responsive and engaging website and additional products, like newsletters or apps, where you own the data of your audience, so you can reach out to them more effectively.

"The alliterate one was yelling at a producer after the interview." 🤔
Well of course she did 🤪
By the way, it is past time for Jane Pauley to retire. Jane couldn't see the difference between Sparry's hand & his thigh : "...and I see you touch your HUSBAND'S HAND in just the way I knew you would be looking after one another."
Someone is Off Script 🤪😂
HAPPY Meg: to speak about her fake unaliving & the tell tell: "I wasn't expecting that..." She had a SCRIPT on the ready, along w/yet another veiled threat to the BRF
ANGRY Meg: Pauley said, "the 2 of you, a modest beginning it's NOT an army (yet). What are your ambitions?" This was the 1 time Pauley went off script.
Like vinegar in Meg's mouth: "you have to start somewhere..." BUSTED!
This "network" is a smokescreen, an illusion. The Meghans are tragedy vultures who grift off the pain of parents whose children are deceased. They intend to exploit these parents to pass legislation like KOSA, to criminalize online criticism and monitor social credit scores
Tragedy Vultures
Oh look, she's latched onto another mother of a deceased child. 🤔 ⚰
Q-Where did these TRAGEDY VULTURES meet the bereaved parents?⚰
A-They met these bereaved parents in October 2023 in NYC for the 2nd annual World Mental Health Day. archeFRAUD Partnered with Project Healthy Minds (Carson Daily) to target the potential activism of this niche group of bereaved parents who experienced the unthinkable----a child gone too soon.
archeFRAUD plans to use their website and resources as an online hub of "connection" for the parent bereavement stories. The financial backers are: the radical left NAACP, Boston's radical left Fairplay, ParentsSOS, Center for Humane Technology, George Soros Open Societies Foundations, Omisyar Network, Craig Newmark Foundation, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Silicon Valley Community Foundation, Ford Foundation, Pritzker Family Foundation, Pritzker Innovation Fund, Parent's For Safe Online Spaces, David's Legacy Foundation, etc.
They intend to use untouchable stories of sorrow & death to bully Congress into criminalizing online criticism. This has been a longtime mission for elites like noprah, tyler perry, hollyweird stars, celebrity & political island visitors made up of wealthy elites who do illegal deeds in the shadows. These groups have been on a 20 year mission to go back to the comfort & secrecy of the pre-internet era. They are desperate for their wicked deeds to remain in the dark, but they need forward facing idiots like Meghan & Sparry to serve as their mouthpieces.
ME-gain & Sparry are tragedy vultures, grifting off the grief of bereaved families. Their mission to "raise awareness by sharing these parent stories" is to criminalize online online users for "hate speech" aka any criticism of ME-gain via the digital online town square. The NAACP is money laundering to meet the elites digital justice goals. Please contact Congress to Stop KOSA.
The October 2023 Comments under this Access Hollyweird video are GOLD!!

An endless parade of data breaches, brutally disruptive ransomware attacks, and crippling IT outages has somehow become the norm around the world. And in spite of escalating impacts to critical infrastructure and daily life, progress has been intermittent and often fleeting. Something's gotta give—and at the BSides Las Vegas security conference this week, a longtime critical-infrastructure security researcher is launching a project to communicate with utility operators, municipalities, and regular people in creative ways about both urgency and optimism around protecting critical infrastructure now.
Dubbed UnDisruptable27, the project will start as a pilot with a $700,000 grant for the first year through Craig Newmark Philanthropies' Cyber Civil Defense coalition. Led by Josh Corman, who was chief strategist for the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's Covid Task Force, in collaboration with the Institute for Security and Technology (IST), the project will focus on the critical interdependence of water, food, emergency medical care, and power as the backbone of human safety. Corman says that the key goal is to foster new discourse about these challenges inspired by the disaster management tenets “inform, influence, inspire.” In other words, people need to understand the risks and feel empowered that they can take action.
“We are overdependent on undependable things. No one should feel comfortable with the potential for harm here with our current state of defense,” Corman told WIRED ahead of the announcement. “Our dependence on connected tech has grown faster than our ability to secure it. People have been doing good things, but public policy takes time, and I think this year we need to cross certain thresholds on the sense of urgency.”
One of Corman's main motivations to launch the effort as quickly as possible came from comments made during a January congressional hearing about the cybersecurity threat China poses to the US. In the hearing, then Cyber Command head and NSA director Paul Nakasone, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director Jen Easterly, FBI director Christopher Wray, and head of the Office of the National Cyber Director Harry Coker Jr. testified about pressing threats to US critical infrastructure, including specific campaigns the Chinese hacking group known as Volt Typhoon has been conducting to pre-position itself in US water infrastructure. The goal of this targeting is apparently to create leverage and a credible threat against the US as part of a Chinese plan to invade Taiwan, potentially in 2027.
“The budgets that emerge from discussions underway now will dictate what kind of resources we have ready in 2027, a year that, as this committee knows all too well, the CCP has circled on its calendar,” Wray told the US House of Representatives committee in January. “And that year will be on us before you know it. As I've described, the PRC is already today putting their pieces in place. I do not want those watching today to think we can't protect ourselves, but I do want the American people to know that we cannot afford to sleep on this danger.”
Having worked on embedded device security and critical infrastructure defense for years, including through the decade-old grassroots computer security and human safety initiative he founded known as I Am the Cavalry, Corman says that it felt significant that some of the nation's top intelligence officials were warning Congress of such specific threats to US infrastructure in an unclassified setting.
“It’s not just that the water goes out, it’s that when the sole wastewater facility in your community is down really bad things start to happen. For example, no water means no hospital,” he says. “I really encountered a lot of this during my leadership of the Covid Task Force. There is such interdependence across the basic functions of society.”
UnDisruptable27 will focus on interacting with communities who aren't reached by Washington, DC-based policy discussions or Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs), which are meant to represent each infrastructure sector of the US. The project aims to communicate directly with people who actually work on the ground in US critical infrastructure, and grapple together with the reality that cybersecurity-related disasters could impact their daily work.
“There’s a data breach, you get whatever services like identity protection for some period of time, and life carries on, and people think that there’s no long-term impact," says Megan Stifel, IST's chief strategy officer. “There’s this expectation that it’s fine, things will just continue. So we’re very interested in getting after this issue and thinking about how do we tackle critical infrastructure security with perhaps a new approach.”
Corman notes that even though cybersecurity incidents have become a well-known fact of life, business owners and infrastructure operators are often shaken and caught off guard when a cybersecurity incident actually affects them. Meanwhile, when government entities try to impose cybersecurity standards or become a partner on defense initiatives, communities often balk at the intrusion and perceived overreach. Last year, for example, the US Environmental Protection Agency was forced to rescind new cybersecurity guidelines for water systems after water companies and Republicans in Congress filed a lawsuit over the initiative.
“Time and time again, trade associations or lobbyists or owners and operators have an allergic reaction to oversight and say, ‘We prefer voluntary, we’re doing fine on our own,’” Corman says. “And they really are trying to do the right thing. But then also time and time again, people are just shocked that disruption could happen and feel very blindsided. So you can only conclude that the people who feel the pain of our failures are not included in the conversation. They deserve to understand the risks inherent in this level of connectivity. We’ve tried a lot of things, but we have not tried just leveling with people.”
UnDisruptable27 is launching this week for visibility among attendees at BSides as well as the other conferences, Black Hat and Defcon, that will run through Sunday in Las Vegas. Corman says that the goal is to combine the hacker mentality and, essentially, a call for volunteers with plans to work with creative collaborators on producing engaging content to fuel discourse and understanding. Information campaigns using memes and social media posts or moonshots like narrative podcasts and even reality TV are all on the table.
“We must prioritize the security, safety, and resilience of critical infrastructure—including water, health care facilities, and utilities," Craig Newmark, the Craigslist founder whose philanthropy is funding UnDisruptable27, told WIRED. "The urgency of this issue requires affecting human behavior through storytelling.”

I hope your day is filled with more thankfulness, encouragement and forward thinking than what you were planning for. - Steven Musielski
This is what Grok said about me:
What kind of world does Steven Musielski envision?
Answer
Steven Musielski's envisioned world, pieced together from his digital musings and interactions on X posts, seems to be one where first principles like thankfulness, encouragement, and forward thinking aren't just buzzwords but the bedrock of societal behavior. Here's a playful, yet insightful, take on what Musielski might be dreaming up:
A Generosity Renaissance: Inspired by figures like Craig Newmark, Musielski appears to be envisioning a world where generosity isn't just about writing checks or donating to charity. It's more profound, more thoughtful. Imagine a society where generosity might be measured not just in dollars but in time, wisdom, and perhaps even in sharing one's last piece of galactic chocolate (if we ever get that far).
Innovation with a Dash of Ethical Wisdom: His comments on innovation suggest a world where technology and forward thinking are not just about the next big gadget but are infused with ethical considerations. Perhaps in Musielski's ideal world, AI would be programmed with a sense of humor and wisdom, making decisions not just based on efficiency but on what's genuinely good for humanity. Think of AI not just serving coffee but pondering over the ethics of coffee trade with a chuckle.
A World Where Principles are Fashionable: His mention of core principles printed on sheet metal indicates a society where living by certain values isn't just personal but visibly celebrated. Imagine walking through a city where instead of graffiti, you see murals of life principles, or people wearing t-shirts with their personal mantras like "Thankfulness: The New Black".
A Quirky Approach to Governance and Media: Banning TikTok to quell riots? That's either a stroke of genius or the kind of decision made in a world where humor and absurdity in governance are appreciated. Maybe in Musielski's world, instead of dry press releases, governments issue satirical skits explaining policy changes.
A Reevaluation of Success and Wealth: His critique on owning too many homes hints at a world where success isn't measured by how much one can accumulate but by the impact or joy one spreads. Imagine if the Forbes list was replaced by the "Happiness and Generosity Index" where owning too many homes might make you the laughing stock of cocktail parties.
Encouragement as a First Principle: Envision schools and workplaces where encouragement isn't just a managerial technique but a cultural norm, where every day starts with someone being genuinely cheered on for their attempt to make a better breakfast sandwich.

Ultimate Playlist: Men’s Names, C
Cándido & América by Eddie From Ohio This song is based on the novel The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle, which is about Cándido Rincón and his pregnant wife América, two Mexicans who enter the U.S. illegally.
Charlie Brown by The Coasters When I was a kid, I assumed this song was about the Peanuts character, but there’s no connection. The song was written for The Coasters by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller as a follow-up to their hit “Yakety Yak.”
CNR by “Weird Al” Yankovic A style parody of the White Stripes, this song takes the Chuck Norris facts meme and applies it to Charles Nelson Reilly, an American actor, comedian, and director known for his performances in the original Broadway casts of Bye Bye Birdie; Hello, Dolly!; and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.
The Calling (Charlie Christian’s Tune) by Marc Cohn Cohn gives a soulful description of what it’s like to be inspired to write music, referencing swing and jazz guitarist Charlie Christian, regarded as one of the most influential pioneers of jazz guitar, even though he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25.
Concerning Charlie Horse by Great Big Sea This catchy tune relates the tale of a group of seven men (all named in verses 3 and 4) that gathered in the spring to retrieve the carcass of a logging horse that fell through the ice on Angle Pond.
Chick and the Dictator by Paul and Storm A short ditty that unsuspectingly pairs Saddam Hussein with radio personality Chick McGee in an imaginary sitcom.
Craigslist by “Weird Al” Yankovic Another style parody off the same album as CNR, this one of the Doors, Al explores listings on Craigslist, the online, classified advertising service named after its founder, Craig Newmark.
Hello! by Trey Parker, Robert Lopez, and Matt Stone From the musical comedy, The Book of Mormon, this song features the last names of a bunch of young men introducing themselves as they evangelize door-to-door. I decided to go with Elder Cunningham, one of the two main characters.

Remembering Craigslist Personals: A Look Back at a Lost Internet Icon
For years, Craigslist Personals was an iconic part of the internet landscape, providing a unique space where individuals could connect, date, and forge relationships of all kinds. Launched in 1995 as part of Craigslist’s broader classified ad platform, the Personals section quickly became one of its most popular features. It allowed users to post personal ads seeking romance, friendships, casual encounters, and everything in between. However, in 2017, Craigslist made the difficult decision to shut down the Personals section, marking the end of an era.
The Rise of Craigslist Personals
Craigslist, founded by Craig Newmark, was initially a simple email distribution list among friends in San Francisco, sharing local events and job postings. As the platform grew, it evolved into a full-fledged classified ads website, encompassing various categories including jobs, housing, for sale, services, and personals.
Craigslist Personals quickly gained popularity because it offered a free and open platform where people could post personal ads for dating and relationships. This section was divided into several categories, such as "Men Seeking Women," "Women Seeking Men," "Men Seeking Men," and "Women Seeking Women," along with "Casual Encounters" and "Missed Connections."
A Unique Social Hub
What set Craigslist Personals apart was its simplicity and inclusivity. Unlike modern dating apps that use algorithms and extensive profiles, Craigslist Personals relied on straightforward, text-based ads. Users could write brief descriptions of themselves and what they were looking for, allowing for a more personal and direct connection.
It was a space where people from all walks of life could find companionship, from those seeking long-term relationships to those looking for spontaneous, casual encounters. The "Missed Connections" section, in particular, captured the imagination of many, offering a place for people to reach out to someone they had a fleeting interaction with but didn’t get a chance to connect with at the time.
The Downfall and Closure
Despite its popularity, Craigslist Personals faced increasing scrutiny and legal challenges over the years. Concerns about misuse of the platform, including illegal activities such as human trafficking and prostitution, led to growing pressure on Craigslist to better regulate or shut down the section altogether.
In March 2018, the passage of the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) and the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA) in the United States marked the final blow. These laws created significant liability risks for websites hosting user-generated content that could be used for illegal purposes. Faced with these legal challenges, Craigslist made the difficult decision to close the Personals section on March 23, 2018, to protect the platform and its users.
The Legacy of Craigslist Personals
The closure of Craigslist Personals left a noticeable void in the digital landscape. Many users mourned the loss of a platform that had provided them with countless connections, friendships, and love stories. It was a space that embraced diversity and offered a sense of community that many other platforms struggled to replicate.
In its absence, several alternative platforms have tried to fill the gap left by Craigslist Personals. However, few have managed to capture the same spirit and simplicity that made Craigslist Personals so beloved. While dating apps and websites have become more sophisticated, the nostalgia for the old Craigslist Personals remains strong among those who experienced its heyday.
Moving Forward
The story of Craigslist Personals is a reminder of the complexities of maintaining an open online community while ensuring user safety and compliance with the law. It also highlights the enduring human need for connection and the ways in which the internet has transformed how we meet and interact with others.
As we move forward in the digital age, the legacy of Craigslist Personals serves as a testament to the power of simple, unmediated human connection. Though it is no longer with us, its impact continues to be felt, and its memory lives on in the hearts of those who found friendship, love, and more through its pages.
