I saw a rolling DeLorean today, adorned with their business’ stickers. Basically a retro cybertruck, take your DeLorean and get to a convention. :P

I like when you see Cheetos in a commercial and someone has poured them into a big glass bowl because that’s really what you’re looking for in your Cheetos experience is to have a dish too big for the dishwasher that needs to be cleaned

Next week begins what I believe will be a big 30 days for the newsletter/Better Offline. Monday's story is a monster - a joint podcast-newsletter generative AI nuke. A surprise Better Offline guest in mid March. The Aftermath episode. Jamie Loftus and Phil. I wrote 8500 words in the last two days.

This should be a huge red flag to countries other than just Ukraine. Predatory weaponization of interdependence is something the US can probably exploit in the short term but the rest of the world will, rightfully, avoid American solutions if that's our modus operandi

It’s worth studying the slaughter unleashed by ex Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte. He killed up to 30,000 poor people in a futile attempt to wipe out drugs & his main communications vector was Facebook. Watch Nobel laureate @mariaressa.bsky.social explain how it was used to silence opposition.

My congressman was supposed to transmit a community meeting today that I RSVP’d for too late to get a seat a seat. (Very unusual.) But it doesn’t appear they broadcast it live and I haven’t found it, yet. :/

They offered me a role as an emergency operations coordinator and I agreed to it before remembering that most of the fun in working hurricanes is being allowed to drive all over despite curfew. I’ll be tethered to a radio, computer and several telephones next time. :/

Everything must grow forever at all times. Such is the Rot Economy. Games cannot be "kind of popular" or "profitable," they must always be insanely profitable. If you aren't growing you're dying www.wheresyoured.at/the-rot-econ...
