Here's a thread of stuff that I'm proud of, in addition to whatever you can find in my bio. In no particular order... xitter.cf/cj_sheu/status/1484441…
I've figured out philosophie engagée: The world has stasis and change, and nothing can or should change that. Conservatism/neoliberalism sees change as the route to more stable stasis. Radical leftism/Marxism sees stasis as the necessary infrastructure of change toward perfection

"That the tech titan is as hangdog as the muckraking reporter shows that Sorkin is not an artist who can make meaning of their resemblance, their moral blur." interesting point by armond white

hot take but Jeremy strong's Zuckerberg is right to ask the civic integrity presenter to cut to the chase. we actually don't need someone to read us the slides or "frame" a quantified conclusion

i’ve had this blurb from Ask Polly taped to every desk i’ve used for the last 10 years
My career advice is just do it. Make it. Say it. Bring it to life. Whatever it is. The crazier your idea, the bigger risk, but bigger reward. There are plenty of people who warn, even threaten, to keep you in control. The world is filled with the you shouldn't do that folks. They're not your audience, and the world is bigger than their echo chambers. You don't need their acceptance or permission. Just yours.
