I haven't been on IG for a couple of years now, but was listening to this a few days ago and it made me even sadder for the people attached to it

Sounds like it's becoming a very stepford wife-y place in a lot of ways that doesn't leave a lot of space open for proper creativity

Social media profits from making us feel bad, but what does it take to really take a step back?

When I read @tinanguyen.bsky.social’s recent piece on visiting NatCon and seeing MAGA leaders openly criticize tech executives and their companies, I knew I had to have Tina on the show. It was a really insightful conversation!

Donald Trump and Silicon Valley have formed an alliance — but that doesn’t mean the MAGA base thinks it’s a good idea.

This week @tinanguyen.bsky.social joins @parismarx.com to discuss the many ways the MAGA movement isn’t on side with Big Tech.

Tesla was supposed to be an EV company, but as Elon Musk tries to become a trillionaire, he needs it to be about much more.

This week @niedermeyer.online joins @parismarx.com to discuss the state of Tesla and other companies’ efforts to overtake it on EVs.

Given the former French President's imminent trip to "le pokey", it seemed a strange coincidence that I've been catching up with my listening of @techwontsave.us and listening to @parismarx.com talk to @jacobsilverman.com about using crypto for bribery.

Another really important episode of @techwontsave.us with @parismarx.com. Big thanks to @carolinehaskins.bsky.social for explaining what Palantir really does. Fascinating context on the dystopian authoritarian wizards behind the curtain.

I really enjoyed reading @abenanav.bsky.social’s vision for a new kind of economic system — one where we have more authority over production and more freedom in our lives.

It entails using technology in a very different want, and by extension building it much differently too.
