I just recovered from COVID and being bedridden, right before going on vacation and having a lot of quiet time. So I've been spending a lot of time either bedridden, reading books or alone with my thoughts and took the time to give a year end meditation or rant, not sure how to describe it. But it's where my head has been at lately. This wasn't professionally edited, so I hope it sounds good.


In 2024, I expect to be doing more author interviews and media reviews again.


Love y'all, and thanks for the continued support.

Happy new year, the last few minutes of this were a headfuck

It wasn't exactly Mark Cuban's idea, but Joe Biden sending out stimulus in the form of a debit card was a strong nudge to spend it rather than finding a way to cash it out and save it

Key idea is balance. Great show. Reading ain’t a cure all. The pursuit of knowledge is best done in a group. Otherwise it’s self isolating and you get less out of it imo.

T gets pretty puritanical at the end of this episode. There has to be a happy medium between all entertainment is bad Protestant work ethic and what we have going on today. Activities that would be considered frivolous and sinful back in the day don't even register as entertainment anymore. If told someone that you spent a break doing nothing but reading and writing fiction, playing music, dancing, and playing cards with friends; they would praise you for having a productive unplugged time. What if you get thrown in prison? Being cut off cold turkey from a screen and apps alone should almost be enough to be considered torture

Can anybody get me T's date/time/place of birth if he's expressed being comfortable sharing it?

I get what you’re saying T, but if I just sit with my thoughts, I’ll end up extremely paranoid. It’s why I need to listen to something while falling asleep.

Go back to Catholicism, T.

I know many people on social media who spread awful hatred towards other groups who have read ALOT. They usually read with confirmation bias. Even if the book itself doesn't say whatever narrative they want to push out. . .they will contort in way to fit their narrative. They don't just read books. They read articles and even academic papers or research, cdc stats etc. They even add gaps in stats to push out their narrative about whatever group they have hatred for. And I see why some ppl can be radicalised because these people are articulate, present the information digestible form etc. Because of what I observed I want my kids to stay away from social media and I would encourage adults to limit the use of social media or get rid of it all together.

Happy New Year to CS and all of its listeners and supporters! Cheers! Has CS ever considered having members of Revolutionary Blackout Network on to discuss current political or similar topics?
