I read all the boring books and listened to the boring podcasts. Now I'm making a Youtube channel about them to make it fun. The topic: making sure humanity stays free and democratic for the long run.
If Youtube was invented today, would it be called YouOLED?

What happens when AI is good enough that you can make a drone at home, with a bomb, and send it to explode in someone's face? Home-made Manhacks. What then, dear society?

Maybe we haven't seen aliens because when aliens realize how to reach the super duper meditative nirvana state of mind, they just do that for eternity and not change a thing. Why go anywhere or do anything if you're happy as you are?

Reading the book "Wolves of K Street" and wow, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone are THE creators of the swamp, the original lobbyists that started everything, the whole business lobbying thing. It's incredible nobody in the media is talking about it, that should be an important topic.

Australia has stricter lobbying rules than USA, with public registers and donation limits. However, unofficial influence still occurs via gifts, post-career jobs, and loopholes. New federal anti-corruption body aims to improve oversight, but enforcement remains challenging.
