Whoah.

Needs more “Yes/ Ask again later” pseudo-choices.

If you control social media, you also control who gets to see what in their feeds.

No, I’ve been afraid before.

At least early Christianity is in many ways socialism. Remember the feeding of the 5000 with “five loaves” and “two fish”?
The true meaning is that there will be plenty if everyone shares. That’s the real miracle.

When the true king’s murderers are allowed to roam free, a thousand magicians arise in the land.
Where are the feast we are promised?

That’s the way. I have three phones, the two non-work phones are 1. for friends and family, 2. for everybody else. On top of that, one of these is actually a dumb phone. Can’t stand the distractions.

The Zhuangzi has a chapter called “Mastering Life.”
Then again, I’ve been reading the whole book back to front dozens of times. It completely changed me, but for it all to sink it, it took a while.

Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water

Quick then Zuck, ban radical ideas like Open Source even harder from Facebook if you want to stay on Don’s good side.

The waiting room. I hate when they make you wait in the room. 'Cause it says “Waiting Room.” There’s no chance of not waiting. 'Cause they call it the waiting room, they’re gonna use it. They’ve got it. It’s all set up for you to wait.

• Famous quote from the Fediverse’s favorite frenemy entertainer, I guess.

Squeeze! squeeze! squeeze! all the morning long; I squeezed that sperm till I myself almost melted into it; I squeezed that sperm till a strange sort of insanity came over me; and I found myself unwittingly squeezing my co-laborers’ hands in it, mistaking their hands for the gentle globules. Such an abounding, affectionate, friendly, loving feeling did this avocation beget; that at last I was continually squeezing their hands, and looking up into their eyes sentimentally; as much as to say,—Oh! my dear fellow beings, why should we longer cherish any social acerbities, or know the slightest ill-humor or envy! Come; let us squeeze hands all round; nay, let us all squeeze ourselves into each other; let us squeeze ourselves universally into the very milk and sperm of kindness.

(Herman Melville, Moby Dick)

Bingo. Trump already started playing with his corporate finger puppets, emboldening some, threatening others.
Same reason Zuckerberg, surely the expert on the matter, had this weird rambling about “masculine energy” very recently. What a Trumpian phrase.

Oh look, it’s male Anna Kendrick.
