iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Have gotten stuck watching YouTube reaction videos because they make me sad. People are reacting to songs but ... Americans and Brits don't know why there's so much Irish symbolism in Boston. James Dean, the Hundred Years War, Pilate (the Roman one) ... they don't know.

Whatever happens with this war: Russia is a country with a declining population. They, like many countries, have a rapidly aging population with a younger generation that is not replacing itself (birth rate of 1.47) - This war is going to be a HUGE setback, unless they get waves of immigration.

A hidden list of 100 abusers in Silicon Valley. Left unstated: some are abusing *men* Sam Altman used to date Peter Thiel, known for recruiting young men for sex (one died of suicide). Sam's sex parties are notorious for how hard they go, and the abuse. Three sources told me about this:

The US isn't all that capitalist anymore. They keep banning Chinese products that are better and cheaper to protect wealthy people (not really workers) in the US. China is sort of capitalism+socialism where socialism is dominant, the US is sort of capitalism+feudalism where feudalism is dominant.

"Experts say the summit may not achieve many relevant announcements but is needed to re-establish trust." I don't think it's possible for Trump to achieve "trust" with anyone at this stage. I don't think he himself knows whether he means what he says or not.
