- Yesterday afternoon became a time when it became necessary to resume my binge-watching of Chicago Med. I have nothing nice to say about Mr. Kirk, and so… #
- I will say this about the death of Mr. Kirk: You would think that his death is some earth-shattering event. It is tragic to be sure, but I would wager that the majority of people had no clue who he was before yesterday. A friend of mine quoted Biggie “You’re nobody til somebody kills you”. Might be the start of something new here: The Internet Is Not Real Life. We’ll get the sound bite of the airplane woman and make it a thing for the podcast, if it ever comes back. I’m sure it will, maybe soon. I’ve really got to feel it at this point. #
- Someone asked me if it would be different if you just stayed of the For You Page. Maybe? The upside to just comsuming the people you follow on your drug of choice is that you may not be getting served by the algorithm, but here’s the thing: Your friends may not be as thoughtful. You may end up seeing things they repost or quote. Not as often as the full FYP experience, but still a possibility, I’d just as soon be done with it. #
