With a patronizing scoff of pity I looked at a tyrannical app in another land. It was a “Super App” called WeChat or KakaoTalk or LINE or Grab or Gojek. Every human being in that land needed the app. You needed it for transportation, for...
As per ushe my reviews can get pretty spoileriffic because they are meant for writers who like to think about books they have already read rather than for readers who are deciding what book to read. But if you’re wondering whether or not...
Restaurants, please don’t make halloumi, paneer, “grilloumi” or similar hard cheeses be your “vegetarian” option because they are almost twice as bad for the climate as even pork is (and pork is already super bad). I know I come across...
A family member yesterday who is going on an aoroplane vacation said “I know you don’t like that” and I was like… it doesn’t matter what I think. It’s not my opinion that matters. I actually think flying and travel is fun and...
Sometimes you still hear that society is polarized and we need to move towards the middle. Pretty messed up considering how everything’s moved towards the right these past forty years, further than I ever would’ve imagined. Increased...
Okay, with this variant you win when the opponent can’t make a move on the board and is out of reserve pieces, just like the original 1960s game, but you only have six moves to win! Take six pieces each of an unused player color (if your...

I want my anti-smartphone books to be red-hot and flaming Molotov cocktails thrown uncompromisingly at the algo silo surveillance mental ice age. 🔥🍾 I want The Interior Castle. The Conspiracy Against the Human Race. Zen Flesh, Zen Bones...
I have three different devices with either Google Play or Apple Appstore. I have three different devices with an NFC reader. There is zero overlap between these two categories; i.e. I do not own one single device that has both appstore...
This is an empathy exercise, but don’t worry: you’re gonna get to hate someone along the way if you want to. Or if you love them, that’s okay too. The exercise doesn’t hinge on your hatred of them. Okay, so bring to mind someone you...
I’ve been reading 1960s news (my grandpa saved a bunch of news yearbooks) as an alternative to internet and so far the most striking—and this goes for other books I’ve lead from fifties through nineties was that it was from a world of...
