The chaos of the last few years and the enshittification of all social media has made me feel like I was going crazy, seeing the world go to hell with good people being thrown under the bus whilst people cheered the idiots who threw them under

I think from now on whenever anyone tries to ask me about politics, I won’t tell them outright what I believe. But I will say this:
I have friends everywhere.

I don’t talk about the art that moves me too often, but I have to sing praise for this movie. It is absolutely perfect in everything it tries to do. It’s a life-affirming, heartwarming story that inspires you to follow your joy, and to share it with others. It’s my movie of the year.

You can be left wing or right wing, but the rich are flying the plane.

Modern conservatism feels like a primal rebuke of the overwhelming technological and social progress of the last 50 years.
It’s like one final tantrum from those who refuse to adapt knowing they will die out, and afterwards the leaps forward will continue unabated.

Surely Americans can find someone to simply eat Trump. There’s always someone bigger isn’t there?

We need a master reset on western civilization. Misinformation has torn people apart. Democracy is being hijacked and sold to the highest bidder. Immigrants are being blamed for the fires politicians stoke.
This will end in violent bloodshed. And they will have the nerve to be surprised.

Artists who follow me - I want to learn to draw. I have an interest in landscapes, architecture and vehicles, though I reckon I should also master character design too.
Any resources you recommend?

As the UK raises the bar for legal immigration today, I can’t help but wonder if they’re only doing this because it’s the easiest thing to do.
As an immigrant myself I do think it should be sustainable and based on merit, but the problems facing the country can’t all be solved by closing the border

Andor Season 2 Episode 9 is about truth. The importance of truth, big or small, galaxy-defining or deeply personal.
Truth will always guide us to where we need to be. But in societies that have weaponized misinformation and prize chaos and disorder, how do we trust ourselves to do the right thing?

Andor Season 2 Episode 8 is a story about courage. To actively revolt as the hand of the oppressor starts to form into a fist. About how fighting to keep a hold of the truth is as important as having the courage to fight back when there’s no way out.
It’s a story about today. Yesterday. Tomorrow.

Absolute joke that the situation at Red Bull has even come to what it has. Yuki is deservedly in that seat now but he should have been there to begin with.
If he doesn’t produce results, I can very easily see Max or Horner leaving the team. It’s a goddamn shit show at RBR.

Getting older is realizing that being mad at everything is unsustainable.
Pick one battle and fight it as well as your time allows. Don’t prioritise it over your wellbeing.

Follow the money.
Every issue in life is to do with your ability to acquire this and prevent it from being taken from you.
The state of politics and the balance of power is dependent on it.
Follow the money, and realize there are forces much larger than left vs right. It never fucking fails.
