It's strange how age changes the nature of what loyalty means. You can say or feel that you're loyal but it's only after you can show it, to yourself and others, that it truly means anything.

ENCYCLOPEDIA - Your mangled brain would like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike.
YOU - Yeah? Any news on my wife's name? How about my mother?

“That's 40 *cents*. Cents are a form of currency one hundred times smaller than the reál. I'm not even going to take this. Come back when you have 130 reál.”
Isn't it... evil? The order of magnitude between what is asked of a person -- and what they have?

Watched a little Resident Evil Requiem last night and one of my first thoughts was "Wow their hair looks so dry, it really needs some conditioner."
Followed by an introspective "Who is THIS guy?"

I might have just finished Cyberpunk 2077 for the last time in a long while. After experiencing the others years ago, "The Tower" ending in the Phantom Liberty storyline just hit so damn hard. I'm going to have to sit in these thoughts and feelings for a while. What an incredible story and world.

One of the WSJ's A1 stories today was reported *6 months ago* by @404media.co, a team of just four journalists.

If you like comedy you have to watch this show. I repeatedly got The Chris Gethard Show / Planet Scum vibes watching it. "Creature, write quote post."

After reading so much about these cameras over months in the reporting from @404media.co, Benn released a video covering them too. Sharing what I learn in my personal and professional circles has really opened some eyes to what's going on around us.

The gleeful doxing of someone cheating in public is bad even if they are a CEO and even if they are a Coldplay fan. It's bad because this kind of thing is happening to random people on TikTok for such crimes as "sitting silently on a plane" or "being attractive"

The Astronomer CEO's Coldplay Concert Fiasco Is Emblematic of Our Social Media Surveillance Dystopia
Facial recognition and crowdsourced social media investigations are constantly being used not just on cringe CEOs, but on random people who are simply existing in public.
