This is a great interview and I think it's pretty clear that Simonoff is suburbanite that is terrified by his own shadow and willing to bring about a dytopian fascist police state bc of it.
This is the best write up I’ve seen about the whole Ring Super Bowl commercial/backlash/Flock divorce, with the added context of a thorough interview with Simonoff. I appreciate how Nilay Patel presses Simonoff on a lot of his claims about Ring.
Let’s talk about Ring, lost dogs, and the surveillance state
The security camera maker’s Search Party feature, advertised during the Super Bowl, has sparked a surveillance backlash.

Dytopian nightmare indeed.
A Texas Tech professor was told her course on the Holocaust could stay in the university’s core curriculum only if she agreed to cut the content about queer victims of Nazism. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/18/u...
Texas Tech University Is Using A.I. to Cut Left-Leaning Content
Texas Tech is using A.I. to cut left-leaning content in its curriculum. Some say the effort to ferret out forbidden topics is a dystopian academic nightmare.

it really does feel like from this side of the pod we are in a dytopian film or show, the purge, v for vendetta, handsmaid tale ... take your pick

all those old movies about apocalyptic dytopian futures at least promised the adventure of fighting for survival but no we’ll just keep working until we starve to death so they can replace us with a sentient robot to whom they can actually relate

We are at the "arresting citizens for talking too much" milestone in our march towards dytopian America?
Someone left me off the group text.
This seems like an important development.

Proud Pink Sky is one of my favourite novels. If you love #dytopian #scifi - or #alternativehistory books, check it out.
Hi to all the new followers!
I'm a queer author with two novels out: PROUD PINK SKY is set in the world's first gay state, while THE GIDDY DEATH is all about polyamory and nonbinary life.
I also love make up! The more colour the better!

I'm describing the series as Lavender Dytopian 💜 because the world sucks super hard but queer folks find a way through somehow, so you're guaranteed a HFN (happy for now) ending in each story.
Also, there's a good amount of smut.
Enjoy!
