    I’ve noticed something. I don’t do much YouTube but videos seemingly can be edited after posting. I don’t know the limits, but it makes revisiting timestamps a fun experience.

    I can see rationalizing title changes ( also a bad idea) but surely there are video edit indicators? I already don’t trust online videos much.

    Stale links and chaos:

    I was confused for a while, but that’s why timestamps may go stale . The funnier part is the ghost busters in the comments. I’ve noticed this elsewhere too, but trying to recall the details is a waste of time. Tracking this election too is starting to waste my time.

    It’s the 21 day mark. I’ve seen it before. It only takes 21 days to turn an election on its head by timing the right fights (details are not especially important). Will a rabbit appear out of a hat?

    There’s an obscure book called “Politricks” (some of you might have it). Its author is in the election, and the way everyone talks about it is extremely funny. I can’t tell the serious from the jokey anymore.

    To put it another way:

    If a work is subversive, a parody, or daresay satirical but not received that way, then it turns into a kind of self referential dark comedy.

    Satire dies in 2034.
    The rise of the meritocracy is satire.

    There are apparently some who think I’m an old archivist. I may have once worked at an archiving place before though. I’m young but I’ve felt old since ~2019.

    Someone tossed a delightfully devilish idea. If the world hasn’t ended yet and I somehow do this a third time (~2031), maybe I’ll try to resurrect and programmatically annotate data starting from 1962.

    Why?

    It makes the metagame entirely obvious for the future naive souls willing to play. The constitution’s first-past-the-post realpolitik meta is no joke.
