Perfection.

The look on the cats face says it all: we never doubted for a moment.

The increasing clarity that “big cloud” is one of the most existentially dangerous threats in the long term. The idea of not truly owning my own data, particularly in an era where truth itself is becoming more and more malleable, became intolerable.

Secondarily, the desire to get off the subscription hamster wheel and own all my own media.

Old people need romance too, he said defensively.

We are losers right now. We are Losers if we don’t fix it.

That’s my distinction anyway.

Edit: I am a loser right now. Chuck Schumer is a Loser.
