Just something I thought when I read that.

I hope to one day get to the level of notoriety where people I don't know blame me for things I didn't do.

Read an essay by Carrol Quigley about how the ancien regime was effecrively not a functioning sovreign state because there were so many conflicting interests. Like, judicial reform was impossible because the crown couldn't afford to compensate the (fired) judges for their (hereditary) positions

They could have put Perceval's first encounter with a knight in Monty Python's Holy Grail and performed it exactly as written and it would not have been at all out of place. You wouldn't even realize it wasn't a parody of Arthurian Romance. Much of the story is like that.

To a certain extent, the story is serious but the character by and large are not. And because of this, you get things like Perceval first encountering the Grail and... not asking about it, because he didn't want to seem foolish or ignorant

The funny part is that as far as liberal arts academics go, density and overreliance on jargon are marks of charlatanry; the stuff by people who actually know what they're talking about are pretty easy to read as light entertainment.

Me too, but I'm starting with "Weapons Systems and Political Stability: A History" by Carroll Quigley. First 258 pages went by pretty fast.
Probably won't do 40 books but even 12 would be an improvement over last year.

Beyond the simple "lowest common denominator" explanation.

Rian Johnson also seems like a good director to involve in this because he'd actually be interested in developing movies that are artistically satisfying but still legible to distracted audiences

I've seen people complain about this approach but imo the difference is that Netflix has more precise data and analytics than what we had before, and it goes a long way to explaining the gap between critically acclaimed shows (active viewing) and popular shows (passive viewing)...
