I wish I had a list of every book and every article that I have ever read. There have been times when I’ve read something and later wanted to go back and look at it again and not been able to find it. This is frustrating, so I’ve started logging everything that I read.

Here’s what I read this week:

Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg’s Partnership Did Not Survive Trump — The New York Times

The indictments made it clear just how large a part Facebook had played, both in spreading misinformation about election fraud to fuel anger among the Jan. 6 protesters, and in aiding the extremist militia’s communication ahead of the riots. For months, Facebook would be a footnote to a day that challenged the heart of American democracy. And Ms. Sandberg’s words attempting to place the blame elsewhere would continue to haunt her.
