When I was growing up, the History Channel played WWII documentaries nonstop.

If you saw a person losing a game of chess to a dog, over and over, you would assume the person is losing intentionally, that they are losing on purpose. Probably to make money selling tickets to see the amazing chess playing dog.

I think basically everything happening in politics including the delinking of consumer sentiment from economic metrics is explained by Covid. I think people are way too quick to forget the cataclysmic elephant in the room

Obviously not an original thought, but it's really striking thinking about how much more fun video games would be today if graphical technology had never advanced past 16-bit pixel graphics and we had just instead gotten really good at making them
