Summer 2021

There is a literal madness of the crowd loose upon the world. A mass psychosis. The ability to think critically and rationally about the reality of the world has warped and twisted some because of the military grade fear porn peddled by the powerful to divide the working class and retain their status and privilege. When this particular psychosis ends there will be phrases said like "I didn't know" or "We did the best we could with what we knew at the time" to alleviate their guilt. I do not know why such a substantial portion of the population is not equipped to reject the fear and feels so righteous to force their faith based beliefs upon others. It informs us of something very dark and very deep about the human condition.

re: censorship: "this is not being sentenced to wander voiceless in the wilderness, this is being given the keys to the kingdom and being free, being directly in touch with your audience, and getting paid bigly to do it" - *that* is a VERY good way to look at it and I wholeheartedly agree.

"airgapped [backup] drive" - I like that and have been doing the same for a paw-ful and a half of years. And I, personally, am glad you'll take us with you to the next one.

"twitter empowers twitter, substack empowers authors" - I like that even better!!

"never bring ink to a pixel fight" - ok, now I'm just collecting gato-isms!

Great post with some yummy "meat" in it, el Gato Malo! Bueno!
