Well, that was a fantastic read. Took about an hour with looking up some of the references they make and getting deeper into a few things. Thanks for posting!

Well if everyone is just buying shit because corporations tell them to and the world is that fucking stupid, then we deserve what’s happening.
The 70% that comes from corporations comes from people. The people who use the products that the corporations provide. So, if Exxon is one of those major polluters, that is based largely on the people who purchase Exxon products and use them.
This 70% number comes from a 2017 study that measured emissions from 1985-2015. So while those corporations are selling the product that pollutes, when we order some stupid shit from Amazon and it has to come from China on a ship to get here, we are responsible for using that product. When we get UberEats delivered, we are responsible. Ordinary people can fight that by not buying stupid shit we don’t need from China and in so many other ways. Yes, the corporations produce those products, but it is US that consumes it and we are ultimately responsible for the emissions. It’s a fun way to try to say “it’s not me, it’s them,” but the fact is, it’s all of us.
“Slowly getting used to it.” Brilliant
What the fuck happened to Aston Martin? Was such a fun start to the season for Alonso. Gotta hand it to McLaren and their drivers. Have loved watching Piastri and his giant brass balls battling with Max in the start of the last couple of races.
This track is going to be deceptive for Q3. I’ve got a fin on Perez into the wall.
This scene from The Congress feels a lot less like fiction now.
Here is an article that talks about how artists get paid for radio play. Not sure why you’d think they do not. The basics are:
As a kid I had really bad asthma, which led to a lot of chest congestion. Had codeine around for when it got bad. Worked quite nicely, indeed.
De Vries has been such a disappointment. The way he fucked with Magnussen at Montreal, his inability to make anything out of the car he has, and his complete lack of spatial awareness has completely soured me on the boy. I had high hopes. He really shat the bed.
I’ve been getting emails with the subject line, “Your expertise is requested,” from LinkedIn for several years now. They definitely know how to pander to their audience!
