If the monopolies of the Gilded Age jeopardized democracy, today’s tech conglomerates magnify risks to the political system, especially given their power over the flow of information. Though their virtual sprawl is harder to visualize than the railroad kingdoms of the Gilded Age, the effect is similar. From how we search the internet (and what we find) to the way we share news and interact with fast-evolving artificial intelligence—tech firms control the chokepoints of a digital infrastructure that, for better or worse, has become essential to our lives.

On our latest weekly roundup, some of our kids are moving back and forth from college, and one is moving down to the basement apartment... little by little. What we're watching: On The Gilded Age, there were many winners and a few losers in the season 2 finale, "In Terms of Winning and Losing." While we're sad that the show has not (as yet) been renewed for season 3, we also kind of wouldn't mind letting these characters stay where they landed in this episode. We also watched the movie Quiz Lady, which you can find on Hulu. It stars Awkwafina and Sandra Oh as a pair of sisters, but the twist is that Sandra Oh is the screw-up and Awkwafina is the straitlaced one. The movie also has enough fun little twists (plus dogs!) to make it a lot of fun. Catherine's library find this week is Finlay Donovan Is Killing It by Elle Cosimano. It's the first in a series about a mom and suspense novelist who gets mixed up in some real-life crime, with her trusty babysitter as her sidekick. In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed parenting trends to take or leave (December 21, 2021), parenting trends of the decade (December 18, 2019), crazy jobs and crazier elves (December 18, 2015), and our very first episode: Holiday Parenting Joys and Jangles (December 18, 2013; be warned that the production quality is best described as "primitive"). ​ We're taking the next two weeks off for the holidays (we think we've earned it, after 10 years!). We'll be back in January. Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available. Happy New Year!

As y'all might already know, Satsuki and Bee get along pretty well (for some reason), so they're discussing things over tea. Satsuki is one of the few she'll tolerate in the library. #TeaTime #nendography #KillLaKill #ReZero #Beako #nendoroid #nendoroiddoll #motogstylus2022 #satsukikiryuuin #chibisatsuki #mobilephotography #seldomseen #shorthairedsatsuki #prettyinpurple #calicocritters #sylvanianfamilies #mangacollection #ladysatsuki #OOC #gildedage https://www.instagram.com/p/ContSuer933/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Holiday leftovers: money money money. From Newport to St. Augustine, the hypercapitalism of the Gilded Age found its way south via the rail endeavors of Henry Flagler. His money and ambition built the ultraluxury resorts of the day in St. Augustine, which have now been converted to art galleries and college classrooms. #staugustine #historicstaugustine #henryflagler #poncedeleonhotel #flaglercollege #alcazarhotelstaugustine #lightnermuseum #gildedage #capitalism #hypercapitalism #needsmoregold (at St. Augustine, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cni6zfEOlDl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

QOTD: What are your most anticipated new books of this month (or this year)? . ATOD: Besides this one, Lunar Love by Lauren Kung Jessen. I can't wait to get to it! . A Winter at the White Queen by Denise Weimer In the world of the wealthy, things are never quite as they appear. Ellie Hastings is tired of playing social gatekeeper—and poor-relation companion—to her Gibson Girl of a cousin. But her aunt insists Ellie lift her nose out of her detective novel long enough to help gauge the eligibility of bachelors during the winter social season at Florida’s Hotel Belleview. She finds plenty that’s mysterious about the suave, aloof Philadelphia inventor, Lewis Thornton. Why does he keep sneaking around the hotel? Does he have a secret sweetheart? And what is his connection to the evasive Mr. Gaspachi, slated to perform at Washington’s Birthday Ball? Ellie’s comical sleuthing ought to put Lewis out, but the diffident way her family treats her smashes a hole in his normal reserve. But when Florence Hastings’ diamond necklace goes missing, Ellie’s keen mind threatens to uncover not only Lewis’s secrets, but give him back hope for love. . #deniseweimer @justreadtours #justreadtours #WinterattheWhiteQueen #RomanceattheGildedAgeResorts #DeniseWeimer #WildHeartBooks #historicalromance #historicalfiction #gildedage #bookstagram #amreading #christianfiction #bookworm #toread #ilovebooks #amreading #currentlyreading #coverlove #instabook #bookpic #bookphotography #booklover #booklovers #instabook #bookish #instabookgrammers #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #tbr #bookworm #booksandtea (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnS5_iHL_CU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On our latest weekly roundup, Catherine's stressing through finals week from a distance. What we're watching: On Dancing with the Stars, Xochitl Gomez took home the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, so it's another win for the teens. Good for her, but a big fat BOO to the judges for not giving Alyson Hannigan a full set of courtesy 10s for her freestyle dance. On The Gilded Age, season 2, episode 7, “Wonders Never Cease," but neither do big problems like your brand-new husband dying and your son getting scammed out of all your money. This was a very bad week for the Brook/Van Rhijn sisters. Catherine's library find this week is actually a book she copyedited, not one she found on the library shelves. But she hopes you'll check out this warm, lively middle-grade novel starring a tween boy who learns to look at dance in a new way. It's called The Rings of Jeffrey, and it's by Nello McDaniel. In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed how parents can pay it forward (December 14, 2020), holiday gifts for pets (December 14, 2018), and morning woes (December 11, 2015). ​ Next week, our TV watch will cover the Gilded Age season finale, "In Terms of Winning and Losing" (S2 E8). We'll also watch the movie Quiz Lady, which you can find on Hulu. Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
