Attack the System- Where to live to save money 28th March 2023March 28, 2023 Hello, Insiders. I want to ask you about artificial intelligence. We’ve covered how it may be coming for our jobs, how it will fundamentally change search, and how it could change social media. But I’m curious about its impact on you, specifically. Have you used […]Keith Preston

- The Russian & Chinese “Partnership” 28th March 2023by Peter Zeihan on March 28, 2023 Russia has long operated under the guise of “strategic partnerships” to keep its enemies within striking distance. Putin and Xi’s partnership is no different. However, only time will tell who will end up with the knife in their back. For both […]Keith Preston

- Samizdata quote of the day – machine learning edition 27th March 2023“Artificial intelligence in particular conjures the notion of thinking machines.

- Who would be a landlord in Ireland when they could Airbnb? 25th March 2023There is much anger in Ireland over the country’s ongoing housing crisis. The Dail put in place an eviction ban over the winter. It got them some good headlines for a while, but the ban had the usual effect of driving smaller landlords out of the market, making the crisis worse. The ban is due […]Natalie Solent (Essex)

- Systems indoctrinate, deprecate questioning and doubt, produce reactive citizens, and blame them(An extension of a few points I mentioned in this video concerning education.) So-called educational systems teach young students what to believe, how to behave, and perhaps skills deemed necessary—not to question.

- VISITING THE REMAINS OF BENJAMIN DECASSERES IN TUCSON 31st May 2021by John GrauerholzThere are particular geographic locations that, for one inexplicable reason or another, seem peculiarly enchanting.

- Review: Speakers’ Corner Anthology 1st March 2023
Roger Ebert’s Thunderdome review mentioned the insane fashion, saying something like “It seems that between scavenging for food and fighting, the survivors have just enough free time to come up with new punk hairstyles.”
The only issue I have is that he should’ve used bodybuilders and circus freaks as his models.
Haha – yeah! The end of the world is the beginning of style!
And for sheer seven-scarred shamelessness, Galliano really should’ve gone for pro-wrestlers and bodybuilders – Fist of the North Star extras ftw!
If this is really going to be the new fashion for the winter, well you better get used to calling me a FASHION-POSER cuz I’m going to be all on it.
