“In big tech we face a totalising power that in key respects disqualifies itself from being understood as capitalism, but rather as a wholly new form of governance by the few over the many.”

I’m telling you. The “where to start?” Is with a pen and paper. Once it gets going you’ll be wondering where to stop. And the fun part is where ever you want, or don’t stop?

An all-timer is Lost in La Mancha about Terry Gilliam’s failed Don Quixote adaptation with Johnny Depp. You have not seen a trainwreck like this. Current is actually Welcome to Wrexham. It really is about more than the team or Ryan & Rob. It is a well done doc.

The core issue with most of the criticisms of project 2025 is that the "oh no, they're coming after x, y, z" is couched in ways online leftists would be upset and you need to couch then like this! "They're taking your Sunday NFL to force you to go to church" shit will work way better

Maybe it's changed since they were recruiting my wife, or they lied to her, or she's lied to me and really is in the CIA. She does seem to laugh at the oddest parts of The Americans...

Honestly, the CIA tells people to say they are geologists. Apparently no one asks further questions after that.

The hardest part of International Business is dealing with timezones. Cultures, currencies, languages, all of those are workable things, but timezones suck. Hate the timezone, not the people in it.
