Listener friends, in case you haven't seen it, I wanted to share a GoFundMe for listener HyperDose, who's had some really terrible luck -- after a long run of health issues, he also had the townhouse he was moving into in Denver blow up, with his phone, wallet, keys all inside it. He doesn't have much of a support network except for the friends he made through WFMU, so sharing this campaign widely is his best shot for getting back on his feet:
www.gofundme.com...
Give if you can, but especially please share with your friends and networks and in any context where you think it might help.
Thanks, Mark!

What we don't seem to be good at knowing is what the point of preserving photos is. I guess we haven't had them very long, but the task of sorting the "save forever and keep" compared to the "I take a million photos all the time because the device lets me do it" seems like a lot more than most folks will ever make time for.
I think it's a good thing to let all this go.
But then, I have neither kids nor social media.
Thanks, Mark! Thanks, Tamara! Thanks, kindly death!
