“There's the television. It's all right there - all right there. Commercials! We're not productive anymore. We don't make things. It's automated. What are we *for* then? We're consumers, Jim. Buy a lot of stuff, you're a good citizen. But if you don't, what are you then, I ask you?”

I’d watch this simply to feel better about myself
Bryan Johnson is going to die just like the rest of us, and the only immortality he will have is as a weird wealthy asshat.

Same for Grimes.
Tomorrow Grimes will DJ a livestream of immortality influencer Bryan Johnson tripping on shrooms to determine its effect on longevity. Mr. Beast and the CEO of Salesforce will be there too.

If I didn’t have the language of psychology, an excellent support system, if i was prone to despair and suicidal ideation, then seeing this video as a novelist—who got their start and success in 2013 when ebooks were taking off—might get me to an “end it all” place.

It’s both.
The most concerning thing about him--especially since he's president--is that you can't tell what he says seriously and what he says just off the top of his head.

You wouldn’t even have seen something this stupid and sick in 1930s Berlin.

It’s a metaphor
Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:

Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

I appreciate you
I get really stressed when *ministers* get official prepositions wrong. It’s the Department FOR Transport, Office FOR Budget Responsibility, Department OF Health and Social Care.

Look, I’ve played quite a bit of Jenga. Surely we can destabilise?

Popcorn time!

Jenny Watson's recent Substack posts seem to indicate internal strains and stresses in the GC
community.

It's always worth remembering that sooner or later terrible people are terrible to each other.

I should probably be asleep… instead I’m sitting with my feet in hot pool water. Oh I also found a little friend by my pond.

You can absolutely change. If you’re a person who’s realised who you’ve been and you gotten perspective due to some trauma or you’ve hit rock bottom, or maybe you just hit the threshold for awareness thanks to a friend who stuck by you.
BUT
That work is yours. Repairing relationships is yours. 1/

I’m a happy person. Like I truly am. When I get unhappy it’s because someone else has said, “you know what, your happy existence is not my happy existence so change please.”

Anyone else? Could be anything

I’m sorry but I’m just the kind of woman who walks in the dark, in the forest, into isolated areas and that gives me a lot of peace… no matter the potential threats that lurk

I’m pleased to report that baby and mum are back together today. And while mum’s leg seems injured still, she’d be happier with her family. ☺️
