Sorry, what was the question again? I got distracted thinking about Fortinbras as a sort of lindworm...
Oof the RIP Corp team picked a weird news day to drop our "just a reminder Elon Musk has always been the worst" episode, but if you like Colette Shade and financial crisis lore you're in luck https://ripcorp.biz/episodes/everything-is-the-financial-crisis
Everything Is The Financial Crisis | RIP Corp

Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns, Washington Mutual, Wachovia Corporation, Merrill Lynch, Circuit City, Borders Bookstore, Sharper Image, and some 150,000 small businesses across the United States — the 2008 global financial crisis killed them all. Turns out, looking at that crisis explains a lot about where we are right now in 2025.

Altman’s ‘plan to solve global warming by asking a nonexistent machine for three wishes:’
“I think once we have a really powerful super-intelligence, addressing climate change will not be particularly difficult…you can say, ‘Tell me how to make a lot of clean energy cheaply,’ ‘Tell me how to efficiently capture carbon,’ and then ‘Tell me how to build a factory to do this at planetary scale’ – if you can do that, you can do a lot of other things too.”

@FrankPasquale There's a scene in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead that is the very inverse of this, but a more-useful thing would be to watch this lovely video explaining different conversational styles (esp around the 20 minute mark!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tdgDLrJ5oQ (xref Montell's Wordslut)
why don't men ask questions on dates?

@grimalkina Thank you! 🖤
@grimalkina That sounds relevant to my interests, is it a thing you can share?
I can no longer tell if I'm holding up surprisingly well right now because I did all of my grieving for the future back in 2024 or if I have just reached a state of emergency dissociation so extreme that I will not be feeling my feelings until 2026.
