Lyn - I’d be curious of your take on ‘The Employees’ by Olga Ravn. It’s a sci-fi esque novella. The world building is phenomenal given the short form, and the general formal presentation is very cool. If you have not read, I highly recommend.

While S1 had a magic to being introduced to the universe, the containment of the severed floor, and so much time with our favorite 4 refiners that can only exist in S1, S2 has been great in my opinion. The ORTBO, Gemma/Marks backstory, Milchik’s development and storyline, the dinner scene with Irving/Burt/Fields, Helena’s desire to be Helly, etc. I think the show is diving into human relationship to work, pain, consent, body in a very thoughtful way. Best show since Breaking Bad.

How anyone could believe this shit is beyond me.

And regarding all the commentary in wake of this — imo anything that does not include Palestinian self determination at the forefront is irrelevant.

“But when you reach a point in your life where you understand who is fucking who —beg pardon, Lord— who’s taking it and who’s not, that’s when your obliged to choose how much you’ll go along with. If you are not devoting every breath of every day waking and sleeping to destroying those who slaughter the innocent as easy as signing a check, then how innocent are you willing to call yourself? It must be negotiated with the day, from those absolute terms.” - Thomas Pynchon, Against the Day

Thank you for continuing to call this out. Trump is a grifter. Of course he would see the opportunity in crypto. The idea that he is a “Bitcoiner” is ludicrous. The unwillingness to admit this by so many Bitcoiners that I respect the opinions of and have learned from has me scratching my head in frustration and downright exasperation.

It’s obvious he doesn’t understand Bitcoin and what it is. Has anyone asked him what the supply cap is? Could he answer this question? Let’s start there.

👌 I do not understand this delusion that Trump is some sort of free speech savior. Especially when you add in his (self stated) inclination to militarize the police/military against citizens if he deems it necessary. The Biden admin was terrible in regard to protests in support of Palestinian liberation, I’m afraid for what the Trump admin will do.
