Every single person who actually knew how to make the trains run also knew that the ‘railroad barons’ wanted to treat them the way they treated their shoe shine boys. Every single human trafficker that could get into the ‘online girlfriend’ grift retired from pimping.

Meta: We're tracking your keystrokes because AI

Found a book from 1919. I think it’s fair to say it was self published. And I swear it’s a rare foresight into the phenomenon of setting out to rule a state like an imaginary emperor rather than try to make it on city council first. It’s sad how funny pages from that era are lost.

Learning that dopamine is the ‘pay attention,’ not the ‘feel good’ chemical, is a lot like learning that people with a neurological focusing disability can end up focusing on the negative because the negative is “strong enough“ to keep their focus. 🫥

And ‘the rich’ keep telling ‘the rest of us’ what ACTUALLY frightens them…but they’re REALLY good at making it frighten us, too.
