    Unfortunately the inevitable enshitification of our lives by capitalism will continue, even if we remove it from our lives as much as we are able.

    What microsoft does to its products, it also does to our governments and civil liberties, social media does to society and democracy, data brokers do to privacy, zillow does to housing security, wallstreet does to economic mobility and financial regulations, etc, etc, etc.

        The twin towers made a ton of sense:

        • lots of people in a small area
        • symbol of America’s dominance of trade
        • iconic buildings in the heart of perhaps the most iconic American city
