This is my grand unified theory of Why Everything Sucks These Days, bascially
Control of business decisions in general has been ceded to "business people" who have zero experience in whatever specific field the business their running is involved in.

"When Disney trusts creative people and gives them support, resources, and space to run, amazing things result. When Disney engages in executive meddling and changes directors or formats partway through a project, disaster. They did a lot of the first in the 2010s then switched." Defensible argument

Autism rates have increased in recent decades, but the reasons are more complicated than what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has presented. Hear more on today's episode of "The Daily." nyti.ms/480eqtm

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

Please stop spreading the odious rumor that Elon Musk hangs out normally or has friends.
I've seen this image enough now that I feel like I should point out it's fake.

aerons are one million percent worth having, it's an incredible chair and your back will thank you
also you should never pay retail or close to it (unless your work is buying it for you), there are always a million used ones floating around because of office churn

it's some kind of journalistic malpractice to tell people an areon going for 30% off of $1600 is a meaningful "discount". you're supposed to get one from a shady facebook marketplace guy for $150 at most

In Blazblue, the character Platinum the Trinity has a jab where they do either rock, paper or scissors
This makes no difference in almost all situations EXCEPT when they are fighting another Platinum. If they both jab each other at the same time, the "winner" gets the hit

"serving my time" isn't a real thing in this country. this place operates on the basis of once a criminal, always a criminal. every crime carries a life sentence. if you committed a crime at any stage of your life, you arent allowed to be part of society. ever.

Twitter has spent the last four years implementing horrible features that nobody wanted and yet they keep doubling down on them. But the second they implement a feature that exposes their base as scammer bots they fix it within an hour.
Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all

I don’t know if it only makes sense without the periphery stuff, but Nier has books, stage plays, etc. I once asked Taro about this and how are English fans supposed to keep up and he looked confused and asked “Why would you need to keep up? Who needs all of that?”
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.
