Preventative Heath. The future’s biggest market is more accurately pricing negative externalities. It’s absolutely essential. I have thoughts on how to consider doing this work.
A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Not enough media outlets are covering the actual impacts of lost work, and the family and mental health consequences. The folks who are navigating much of these realities don’t have time to do meme dumps. And the stark reality is a reminder that some folks really don’t know sh**

A political science professor during Trump's first term argued against use of the word fascism. He was skeptical that the Trump crew had that kind of power. "I have since turned out to be wrong," said Corey Robin to On the Media.

Of everything in those Signal texts, this struck me as most illuminating. The playbook is assistance for extraction. Be forewarned current “leadership” doesn’t provide assistance or exercise generosity for its own sake. It’s all for exploitation of position and resource. The quiet part, out loud.
