I killed Wordpress on 🔗 Philpin.com this morning - and now hand crafting my own HTML and CSS. Don’t get too excited - my work is not rocket science.

🔗 Silicon Valley elites revealed as buyers of $800m of land to build utopian city. … because of course they are.
The project was spearheaded by Jan Sramek, a 36-year-old former trader for the investment banking firm Goldman Sachs, and is backed by prominent Silicon Valley investors including Michael Moritz, a venture capitalist; Reid Hoffman, the co-founder of Linkedin; Laurene Powell Jobs, the founder of the philanthropic group Emerson Collective and wife of Steve Jobs; Marc Andreessen, an investor and software developer; Patrick and John Collison, the sibling co-founders of the payment processor Stripe; and the entrepreneurs Daniel Gross and Nat Friedman, the Times reported.
Not clear how very much each put into the pot - but to remind - Andreesen is very big into land and property development. (🔗 Me back in August last year referencing his stake in ‘WeWork redux) - and who his wife’s dad was.
Surprised not to see Thiel there.
Surprised to see Lauren there.

Not sure if CNN can be saved … but if anyone stands a chance, Mark Thompson would have to be up there … and a truly massive upgrading of leadership after Licht.

🔗 🎙️ More Musk Manure … interview with Ronan Farrow after his New Yorker piece.

Oh FFS … just what we need …
🔗 I do like what Montaigne does - but I have no idea how I might really use it.
Not read much about Burning Man this year - except how it is no longer ‘hot’ (culturally speaking) - but in case you want to ‘sing along’ - 🔗 🎵 there’s a web site for that.
For 99% of the time I use;
- iMessage
- FaceTime
For the other 1% I use;
- The Phone
For the other 50% (sic) I use;

- Element
- Messenger
- Signal

I keep seeing the reference to ‘the number’. I am waiting for the alt right to deliver ‘mathematical proof’ that
113 = T
58 = U and
09 = S
Revealing that PO1135809 is ‘code’ for ‘POTUS’.
Spectacular idea of how just one person can stand up and be counted.
🪦 Bye Bob … a good run. Just like your show.
