"Several People Are Typing" -Calvin Kasulke. This was a howling take-down of both corporate life, modern interactions, and attraction. A guy gets trapped into his co's slack channel due to a corrupted spreadsheet. Hijinks ensue. True love is "found", & maybe there's a sunset. #Booksky #234

14yo, describing a song: It's by one of those old bands, you know, like the Beatles
14yo: And there's a part where it says "hey ladies, hey fellas, and the people that don't give a fuck"--
Me: CHILD, ARE YOU TALKING ABT LIMP BIZKIT
14yo: Yeah, them!

All public plaques, statues, stadium names, etc. need to be reviewed as far as I'm concerned. Several city names, natural monuments, too. When we get rid of the oligarch class, all public mentions of them/honors need to go, too.
You can't read a single discussion of the renovations of the Frick Museum that notes that Henry Clay Frick was an absolute worker murdering scumbag of the first order, even compared to other horrible Gilded Age capitalists.
The art world might now be willing to talk about race. But class? Fuck no.

Oligarchs don't care about people.
During the height of the pandemic, Tyson used Palantir to predict Covid-19 infections among meatpacking workers down to a nearly exactly figure. But rather than using this data to increase worker protections, Tyson used it plan for labor shortages + plant closures

My dog has been lobbying to go to bed since 7. He won't go by himself. Somehow, he amps up the cute while simultaneously conveying extreme tiredness. It's a whole performance. Art, really.

I can run a political nfp to reform government. Hell yeah.
Somewhere out there someone who’s the best at what they do is terrified that they have imposter syndrome while a bunch of barely literate pedophiles are very calmly running the world

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.
I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

"Dragnet Nation: A Quest for Privacy, Security, and Freedom in a World of Relentless Surveillance" -Julia Angwin For those who seek ways of becoming less noticeable, this is an accessible book for tightening your personal electronic footprint. I think it's impossible to opt out, tho. #Booksky #129

The dramatic repudiation of Trump this week wrecks a number of absurd narratives the media has pushed lately. In the runup to the election, NYT pieces kept telling us Dems were overly obsessed with attacking Trump.

Trump Humiliation Worsens as Fresh Info Reveals Scale of GOP Losses
The results showed that Democrats don’t have to choose between attacking Trump and highlighting the economy. In fact, they are often inseparable.

"Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It" by Cory Doctorow. If curious why all "free" platforms eventually go to hell, this is a great book that explains it. Dives into the rent-seeking behavior of technofeudalists & how we're all just products. #booksky #225
