My first thought was that it would be a nightmare verifying who owns what and how to transfer ownership.

Then it occurs to me, could this a legitimate use of blockchain?

Totally plausible 80s movie plot.

Exactly. It’s Mr. Trump. Mr. Obama. Mr. Bush. Etc.

We have stop normalizing reverence for former statesmen. Respect—where it’s deserved—sure but titles belong to the office not the person.

I really like what they do but mostly find them unlistenable. If you don’t enjoy listening to people just chatting and making lots of—often bad—jokes in the middle of the narrative, this podcast is not for you.

If you don’t mind that, they do a great job of deep diving into the history of despicable people.

He said his three kids—7,4 and 3 years old—eat “14 eggs every single morning”. Either he’s an idiot or the toddlers are training to fight Dolph Lundgren.

You’d be better off just writing straight up fiction. Try short stories before diving into novels.

I suggest reading Kafka and Cortazar for more inspiration.

Not usually. But, untreated shingles can lead to complications that can kill you (infections, stroke, meningitis, encephalitis, etc.).

He’s shingles.

Yeah, the US had the disease pretty bad when it was young. And, it’s laid dormant in the nervous system for years. Some stress and poor health habits have allowed it to rise to the surface.

It won’t ever go away entirely but better habits and self-care can keep it away indefinitely.
