The truth here is so ever relevant, is so simple and profound. I think I might pop it into my next book. Sharing yet again:

As an American it's both scary and wonderful watching the rest of the world learn what grey rocking is and then using it in their negotiations with us.
Go you! Other countries liberate yourself from our narcissistic abuse cycles. Also oh no! I live here! Ahhh!

That episode was so good. I mean I love all the episodes but I feel like they are really leaning into sam being part of the show more and I really love when that happens. Like it's something very special. Thank you.

The Trump-Republican budget would be a disgrace under any circumstance. At a time when inequalities of income and wealth in America are wider than they have been in more than 80 years β€” with the richest Americans taking home near-record amounts of both β€” the bill is shameful.

Should corporations be able to weaponize your personal data to rip you off? Well, they may already be doing that thanks The Shady World of Surveillance Pricing (Ft. Lina Khan)
