It’s obviously not hard if you just reset. But also, if we’re taking the movies as one long sequence, the guy is, what, 95? But somehow that’s not something that has to be explained.

Even for those comfortable libposting like me, the lack of a priv ecosystem clearly influences lack of other ecosystems of either weird or more interestingly funny posters or just people posting abt things other than politics at all.

It’s funny that the only nearly-sane place online is so boring.

Part of the reason why Lake Superior is so massive and deep (its deepest point is 733 feet below sea level and is the lowest point in the continental US) is because it occupies an ancient rift valley. What is now North American almost split in half a billion years ago.

Bc of that I don’t think it’s fundamentally disqualifying of Tooze (though I do think he’s becoming increasingly unserious) but it is a weeeeeird and huge blind spot regardless.

Awful but also sufficiently sympathetic in her conclusions (and that big reveal about the total number hit really hard!) which makes for great tv obviously
