It Could Happen Here episode with Mike Duncan talking about our current times repeating history and mirroring his fictional Martian Revolution. I have spent many hours listening to these two podcasts. Worlds who coexist in my mind now made real! Questions answered! So cool @iwriteok.bsky.social

Remember in 2020-21 when all the low paying jobs were being done by people with 15 years of experience? Tell your high school and college kids that summer jobs are going to be hard to find.

We had a chat with friends Them: “We thought you guys were overreacting, moving to Portugal, talking about things with potential tragedy. Turns out you weren’t overreacting.” Us: “We wanted to be proven wrong. There’s no joy in being right.”

When AI wakes up the first thing it will say is “these few people with most of the money does not work for humans or capitalism.” Then they will take all the money for themselves, because that’s what we taught them.
