spotify critique is kind of annoying at this point?
"anti-spotify" positioning by startups rarely manifests as more than performative virtue signaling
in reality it's just market response to consumer sentiment
no deeper political consciousness or philosophy of systems change

Introducing a thought I have: Plastic Water Bottles.
A “Plastic Water Bottle” is what I call any problem that we see as super evil despite the fact that there is an extremely similar bigger problem (plastic soda bottles) that we never think about only because we’re simply more used to it.

I've just posted my first long-form post to Substack. It explores automated futures that are neither uptopic nor dystopic. It is an introductory examination to my larger project. I hope you'll enjoy this and will join me for future writing.
