My fever brain would *not* let this go, but my goodness, 2023 needs to end.

Today's year-end round-up covers five core issues for the world this year: AI hype cycles, climate change and inaction, union power, war, and far right extremism - in the world as in the US.

These issues all feed into one another. Maybe, just maybe, understanding the intersections between these struggles will help ready us for the fight against them all in the year(s) ahead.

Go get 'em, tigers.

PS some thing about the way you write, and the way thatโ€™s formatted, itโ€™s very easy to digest and get through. Your style and cadence, and the paragraph brakes and everything. Thank you! @MLClark
