it is impossible to overstate the extent to which this country is now being run by people you would leave a party rather than talk to for five minutes
they hate music, they hate art, they hate artists, they hate pop, they hate the video games they play, they hate the movies they watch, like, they're just all the worst fucking people you've ever met, none of them believe in anything

... You know, Britney Spears riding a manta ray around a black hole would make a _wicked_ van mural.
I am more than a third of the way into the book. She has not described her upbringing, her career, her education, her previous romantic relationships or how she met RFK Jr. She has, however, held forth on Britney Spears, black holes and manta rays.

Which sounds bad, until you remember that Anthropic's current job is burning through money at an alarming rate to no benefit, so a 50% productivity boost just means they're burning through even more money.
