Nothing matters more than what you pay attention to.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I'm David, a journalist and a curious generalist.

The Weekly Filet is my humble part in the necessary rebellion against the enshittification of the greatest information ecosystem we've ever had.

AI slop floods the zone. Autocrats and their billionaire friends undermine shared reality. Feeds seduce us with distractions and reinforce what we already believe.

We can do better.

Every Friday, I help you make sense of what's happening, and imagine what could be. 5 hand-picked recommendations that make you pause and invite you to take a different perspective.

That pause and the brief moment of reflection is a win in itself, always. Sometimes, though, it's the seed that grows into something bigger. Changes in how you see the world and how you choose to act often start with that one irritation: Huh, I never thought of it that way!

It's all about what you pay attention to. Where you invest your time, what you open your heart and your mind to.

I will be there, by your side, trying to be a helpful guide in this endeavour.

Join the rebellion.
