One uber-wealthy family should not be in charge of so much of our media ecosystem.

If regulators let this deal go through, the Ellison family will control CBS, CNN, HBO, Discovery, Nickelodeon and a major share of TikTok.

Smuggler Lawrence Kelly on the Salish Sea - Commonplace Separating fact from folklore in Kelly’s life is no easy task. Secondhand reminiscences and nautical gossip layer much of the available information.

Smuggler Lawrence Kelly operated on the Salish Sea and brought opium, wine, and Chinese immigrants into the US, but as Paul Lindholdt explores in an interesting new Commonplace piece, it is not so easy to separate the truth from the legend in his story. 🗃️

By the end, you’re not just reading about Schulz’s journey you’re living it with him, feeling the high stakes of every decision and the profound impact of every lesson learned.

His choice to run isn’t glamorized; it’s portrayed with raw clarity, showing both the danger and the strange beauty of carving out your own path in a world that demands obedience.

What makes this memoir truly remarkable is its vulnerability. Schulz doesn’t shy away from the messy truth bullying, fractured family bonds, and the suffocating pressure to conform.
