why would he come for online trads like this

In recent years, many young people have approached the faith through social media, successful programs and popular online Christian witnesses. The danger is that a faith discovered online is limited to individual experiences, which may be intellectually and emotionally reassuring, but never “embodied.” Such experiences remain “disembodied,” detached from the “ecclesial body.”

this is a great analogy because those boss battles are precision-engineered to make you feel like you’re struggling when actually everything in the game world was set up for you to win

People really understated the societal benefit of employing someone who just hangs out and watches movies all day and making it so that person can share their sacred knowledge with all of society

Playing Earthbound for the first time ever in 2025 is fascinating, actually. You're just a kid and the world's gone mad. All the adults are useless at best or trying to kill you at worst. Everyone talks like a crazy person. Everything's too expensive. Your next door neighbor wants to be a dictator.

AI’s role in this is accelerationist: it helps leaders cut corners, hollow out their companies, prop up these papier-maché products just long enough so they can collect their paycheck and dip

whoever starts investing in resilience now will have a leg up in the long run

j west bennett @jwestbennett.com · 21d

bubble economy. CEO’s are increasingly incentivized to fuzz the numbers and cash in, to build an MVP simulacrum of a stable business and arrange for their golden parachutes before too many people catch on

it’s one big game of hot potato and we bystanders stand to lose the most
