The Butterfly Effect Is Real

Manton writing today : 🔗 about something that @devilgate wrote : 🔗 Maybe You Can Post Your Way Through Fascism

💯 .. we’ve sort of been down this track before .. not so much Martin’s pov .. as the larger picture .. don’t be cowed .. about anything .. by anyone. And yes it can be scary .. but if nobody reads it .. then you got it out of your system .. if everybody reads it .. you will find that you are not alone.

Only one third in - and we will get to the Silverlake/WPEngine fracas .. but for now a 🎙️🔗link to Lenny’s podcast and a wise thought.

Side note - no expert on how this is all going to shake out in the courts - but from what I read - I remain on Matt’s side.


🔗 Our Muslim Boy Wonder - Michael Moore

(It’s about ’Steve’, but it this caught my attention …

How many millions upon millions over the years have snuck into this nation without permission, without invitation, just wham-bam-thank-you-Uncle-Sam-you’re-an-American-man now – ** in this case because of the perhaps questionable morals of a Wisconsin farmer’s daughter**.

💬 Michael Moore

… my bold, because I have questions …

  • Why is it only the daughter’s questionable morals?
  • What about the morals of Abdulfattah Jandali?
  • Why is it even about ‘morals’ - though I guess it was 1950.

That’s Philpin, Gruber and Jonny. This really resonated - and if you read some of the stuff I read - it will ring bells, because it is like life.


Gruber and Malik commenting on Skype and Microsoft

Om nailed it in that second quote: “Especially for immigrants, calling home used to cost a fortune. Skype made it free.” (I was one of those immigrants.)

🔗 📼 A Minecraft Movie | Official Trailer

No plans to see it - but was reminded that around 15 months ago we were looking for a place to live in Auckland and everywhere we tried was gone before we got there - apparently three movies were in town filming (end of 2023) - but the biggest ‘secret’ was a ‘Moma film about a video game’. And here we are 18 months later …
