#Idea – A Class War Nested Within a Shooting War / 07.10.20

The enlisted men who kill each other in combat
Often have more in common with each other
Than with the officers who command them.

#Idea – Every Consequence Has Its Own Consequence / 16.10.20

Someone who’s had a long career at Phillip Morris probably isn’t evil
But
How many people have they helped to die over the last decade?

#Idea – Automation and Scale / 17.10.20

Tech companies,
Obsessed with scale and efficiency
And too lazy to do the work themselves,
Entrust important tasks to untested algorithms,
And seem surprised
When these algorithms
Occasionally produce disastrous results.

#ThoughtExperiment – Hedging / 17.10.20

Before you try to change it?

Just in case, you know,
You’re unable change it…

Don’t take any of your affiliations seriously enough
To have them used against you.

#Idea – Refusing Offense / 18.10.20

Since there is no you
(…unless you want there to be)
There is no need to take anything personally
(…unless you want to).

#Poem – Now / 18.10.20

Where you are
Is where you need to be.
So instead,
Think upon the path ahead.
