Picturing Collins talking ominously, like Morpheus in the Matrix: "I have a folder. Inside that folder is a print out. That print out is the beginning of a plan. A plan that is the key to our release. The key unlocks..." Everybody leaves, they have a deadline to make.

It's kinda weird showing clips with podcasters nodding along but not asking a question or saying anything. Also is that the same person on a different day? I'm so confused, you're dressed the same but they aren't.

There are only about 200 cold strains, and most confer immunity, so you should be in good shape right around when they graduate.

It seems like a fracturing of shared reality, between those who think it matters and those who think only rhetoric and theatrics is important. Driven by fear, greed, anger, or lunacy.

Not hard to understand. Just bigger = better, more powerful, safer, an investment in capability. Deep in the DNA of this country, along with rugged individualism.
Not my beliefs, but they are widespread assumptions.

Yeah. I didn't mind that switchup so much as the script. It was like college-black-box-theater writing but with famous actors and a big budget. Jarring.
And yes I know they were supposed to sound ridiculous. But compare to the characters in Don't Look Up and Glass Onion.

Idk if American companies will get disrupted. There are already numerous small foreign options. It's not like it was in the US pre-Corolla and Civic.

My man, please get better graphic designers and media in general. This is a mess, the information is all over the place, and there is annual and monthly $ going on. Plus some abstract person is referenced.

Nichols is just not a serious person. Behind all of the essays and rhetoric he just wants to play with words and troll people, even when the issue is of vital importance.

They need a solid plan for dealing with the wave of pardons. The promise of pardons are no doubt being used to control Rs now.

Reminder that it's only been a few months since Musk called Sen Kelly a slur and threatened to deorbit the ISS out of spite, and the only reason all of that went away is that he and T had a falling out.

The replies are not turned off. Neither are quotes.
Now, I don't think anyone should follow him or quote him just to reply, bc he's an ass and just wants the attention. Which is exactly why he leaves the replies open to followers.
