🔗 How to resist Trump and Musk without ruining your life.
Whether you resist him or not .. your life is going to be worse if he isn’t stopped.
🔗 How Silicon Valley Swung From Obama to Trump
Did it though? Did it really? Once again we are being told that the ‘masses’ have switched sides because a few loud mouthed ignorant bullies with a few bucks in the bank are representative of the entire region.
Certainly the facts don’t seem to support the argument.
Overall, Democrats maintained a strong majority in Silicon Valley.
📺 Prime Target ★★★
Had this been on Netflix I might have rated it higher. But it wasn’t. Worth a watch for sure .. but not before all the other crackers on Apple TV. And Prime Numbers? I wonder if this was green lighted by the person who did the same for Three Body Problem over on Netflix? Both strike me as written because they came up with a cool maths title - and then asked - so whats the story?
Don’t get me wrong, this was way better than Three Body Problem (which I still need to review) - but I still felt unsatisfied.

I know we know he’s a government sponsored sponger … but it’s important to remind ourselves how much of one he is from time to time. No?

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.
