What if I were to tell you that you’re not aware of even half of the sins you commit?
My 18-year-old son, Henry Sanger—an expert-level web developer, much better than me—is redesigning Sanger.io. Sanger Consulting will make his skills available to the world, under my guidance. If you like Suroi.io and EncycloSearch.org, and you have a project he might develop for you, let us know and we’ll get you set up.
LarrySanger.org is spruced up a bit, design-wise, by yours truly.
Why do we still need encyclopedias if we can just ask a chatbot our questions?
How great to check in here to find three posts from people who aren’t me!

I’m working on creating educational goals for my 4 kids. The oldest is 5. The kids. Any suggestions
If you are a fan of genuine, beautiful Western art, this is worth looking forward to.
Catholics may dispute *sola scriptura* but are they willing to go on further and dispute *sola verbum Dei*?
I feel an addition to my “Defense of Sola Scriptura* coming on.
What did I do wrong? LOL

I am aware, of course, that X.com tried to solve this problem by adding paid accounts. But I think solving the problem was only an excuse for monetizing and basically ruining the platform.
Going forward, it will be a requirement of genuine, worthwhile conversations that they be had between somehow provable human beings. Digital IDs are central to this of course. The sad thing is that really there is no way for this to happen for grandma without giving Big Tech ownership over grandma’s digital ID.
Respect for human dignity is the key.
If this actually could be solved via free Internet tools, it would be worth a Nobel Prize (or the like).
X.com (and other circa-2025 social media) is increasingly artificial, manipulative, an ultimately infantile game.
The reason that my own social media site feels so liberating is that, as I have come to realize, the problem with X.com, and of course, the others, is that they all feel completely inhuman and deeply estranging. Here, I might only be talking to a handful of people, but I can vouch for the fact that this is very real; no one is being manipulated, except maybe by me. 😆
And when somebody shows up to interact, that’s nice. It’s like a guest arriving. This is not the same thing as a giant group chat on a big social media platform. I kind of miss that, how it used to be and how it still is on a smaller scale on local installs. But I feel no pull to engage in such discussions on X.com anymore, for example, because of the overwhelming sense of unreality such discussions now have for me. It’s just over.
