Ep3 is no disappointment. Aaron Paul is off the charts in this one.
#blackmirror has me on the edge of my seat. This season (since now it’s mostly American) reminds me of its roots — unlike S5 which had a lot of… extra fluff and not as strong performances. Eps 1 and 2 down, I hope the rest don’t let me down.

I will say if the #redditblackout causes LinkedIn to be even more like Reddit, then we have all lost again. Are there federated professional networking instances?

Remember and honor them through action and persistence.
