Hot take:
AI is quietly becoming the master switch for civilization—power grids, telecom, logistics, banks, and satellites.
Tell me I’m wrong.

The U.S., Israel, and U.K. now run on a shared digital nervous system—same intel doctrine, same cloud backbone, same surveillance stack. Not a conspiracy, just architecture. My new piece explains this “Emergent Organism” in plain language. open.substack.com/pub/danthedo...

An interesting thing I learned about Jimmy Carter.
I have been a researcher for most of my life. It’s not something I do; it is something I am. I dig into things. When I dug into Jimmy Carter, I found something interesting. The deeper you go, the more you like him.
He was a solid citizen.

The fact that about half the country thinks RFK is on to something terrifies me. People with misfunctioning cerebral cortex number in the hundreds of millions and surround us. They lack impulse control, defy logic, and deify lunacy.

I’m pretty sure Elon deleted his X account after going off about how pissed he is about H-1B. WTF did he think was going to happen? The entire world (including Trump) told him this would happen—and he still acts surprised? The Adderol has rotted his prefrontal cortex. This is insanity.

When do we start charging healthcare CEOs with murder and terrorism for denying treatment to the sick and suffering? These idiots don't understand how lucky they were that just one person picked up a torch and pitchfork, not the entire village. I am not condoning it, but WTF do they expect?

I have a friend named Sonny. Sonny has a friend named Jimmy. I keep guys like Jimmy in the cemetery. They are dead to me.
Sonny told me he thinks Jimmy is a genius. I respect that.
My friend Bob told me I should think Jimmy is a genius.
Sometimes, Bob has no manners.
Sonny? He’s a real street guy.

Well—I got COVID—again. I’ve had all my shots, so it probably won't kill me this time.
I also have Diabetes, COPD, a family history of heart disease that puts me on my best of used by date.
