I’m sorry but my good friend Anders Breivik finds her very insightful.

I saw a clip of him asking Polanski how good he was on “the numbers” re: the economy and I’d have struggled to just ask back “how good are you on the number of people austerity killed?”

Yeah there is a whole lot of Paulie Walnuts lore and inner turmoil only that medium can explore imo. Ghosts are real, for one.

All of these will be written for the “second screen”

Maybe he’ll go and record some “wealth safari” content?

This feels like someone doing a half remembered stand up bit (and tanking).

“jail isn’t real” I assure myself as I refuse to pay taxes on assets worth more than most people will earn in their entire lives

Owen Jones v annoying for various reasons (esp bottling it 2018ish) but Chavs is so depressingly bang on re: that stuff.

Big “Britain banned slavery” energy.

somehow disappointing this lad

not long ago it was a “tough decision” that had to backed or there’d be consequences.

I also love the gap in the other chronological direction; he implies that pre-industrial societies just vibed with zero coordination. Yes mate, cathedrals built themselves, harvests happened randomly, no one ever planned when to do anything until Frederick Taylor invented “working together”

I thought the alternative to Taylorism might be democratic workplaces where people collectively decide schedules but Alex has taught me its Taylorism or a Hobbesian war of all against all. Set your alarm for 6am boys, we’re going to clock in to do social good at the Amazon warehouse!
