i find it fascinating how many rubes seem to idolize self aggrandizers - there are really millions of people in the world who think each of [Elon Musk, Kanye West, Donald Trump, many more] are 'truly geniuses' - largely because they keep telling people that they are geniuses (and pay people to repeat the myth).

Maybe I should be more self aggrandizing...

I think comcast getting fucked by regulators forcing fee disclosure has the potential to make a lot of people 'too hard'

"Flamin Hot" on hulu was a fun history of the chip. Worth the hour and a half. I watched it on hulu, but the account isn't in my name... does that count?

I just started "Severance" and it's really interesting. Premise is there is a workplace where they 'sever' people's consciousness so their work-self doesn't know anything about what they do when they go home, and vice-versa for the home-self not knowing anything about what goes on at work.

Saw an interesting clip of it on tiktok, then saw the same scene but subtly different in S1E1... I'm pretty sure that I'll see the clip I previewed later in the season, and its just edited to be a mindfuck, but had about 10 very confused minutes.

Youtube ads are such garbage. Everyone talks about how google is 'the most advanced advertiser' - well google, you really can't figure out that playing the same ad for me 4 times in a 30 minute period is just going to make me hate both you and the advertiser?

If any state banned advertising entirely, I'd strongly consider moving there.
