Your disposable income, such as it is, belongs to them. That’s why.

Draining working class with bug bites. Every sub is another swarm of insects in need of blood. You’re not supposed to notice.

Ok. Don’t eat the watches.

This lack of attention is simply a marker of how media is consumed. They sorta caught a smell and made up a story to source that smell without ever seeing what’s cooking. Half an idea with the blanks filled in by maybe and sounds right. A friend expresses an opinion that doesn’t disagree with any of it so that’s ran with like it’s fact. Headlines only, no actual reading to fact check. And here we are.

This is also how elections work.

He buys shit and he larps. That’s Elon.

The issue is his latest acquisition is Donald J. Trump

I never thought there was anything wrong with the first narrations. I hope those aren’t gone for good.

I’m curious enough to try this.

Audiobooks are made or broken by the quality of the narration. It’s not enough to simply narrate written word, the narrator has to “act” as well. Given the quality of other arts engaged by AI I’m going into this skeptical.

People need to understand that there is nothing universal about doctors. Many are great people who genuinely want to help people. Like anywhere else in life that involves people, there is a slice of doctors who are assholes. Within that slice, you find the the doctors who don’t like what they do and find something else lucrative like CEO or Senator. Marshall is one of those guys. These doctors and former doctors won’t hesitate to use their former title to try to look better though.

Yes, what he says, can be true. Patients will often and wantonly ignore advice to diet and exercise to lose weight. Diabetics will ignore the rules of being diabetic and end up in a coma in ICU. And hold my beer injuries absolutely do happen. But again, it’s a slice, not 70%. Many people do what their doctor advises. Many people will put in the work. Some of them, failing at diet, will get a gastric sleeve or gastric bypass, that works too. And many diabetics manage their disease, including type 2 diabetics who work hard to lose weight to send their toe 2 diabetes into remission. And so on.

Marshal sounds like a real jerk.

Prey is worth your time.
