OK, you post on this stuff almost as frequently as a clock chimes, more often than the cockerel crows. We'll bite seeing as it's full moon and allegedly the best time for sowing seeds.
• Where are your audience, who are your #sheeple? Most will be blithely hopping in and out of the various walled gardens, so how are they to discover, or be persuaded to, the joys of the #OpenWeb; that it's the (non-cancerous) #growth (aka #PostGrowth / #Degrowth) they're truly looking for? How are they to be converted into disciples and evangelists?
° From the opposite POV, what sort of #silo are you going to build for your composting needs. The sort of open skip that other people will opportunistically fill up rapidly with all sorts of shit and trash? And will you be relying on the rakes, forks and shovels of a huge team of mods? How will they be onboarded? Or a pay-what-you-can-or-will model where people can post all their shit until moved on?
• And with respect to your pitch for the #OMN, just as inevitably, as the Esther Dysons of this word can never be unheard saying, "Does it even scale?"

Would merrily go off on further tangents on the Peertube/Youtube dilemmas, what is to be done with an anarcho-silo like Kolektiva, and so on, but hey there's other nettles to be scythed. Does it all go into the mix and get broken down into some lovely fluffy and friable rich humus in the end?

Best TV/Streaming dramas of the 1st quarter of 2025

Severance – Source: nytimes.com
  1. Severance (Seasons 1-2) – Apple+ – if this show doesn’t will every award possible, it will be a crime against art and humanity!

2. The Diplomat (Season 2) – Netflix

3. Silo (Season 2) – Apple+

4. The Night Agent (Season 2) – Netflix

5. Zero Day (Season 1) – Netflix

6. Prime Target (Season 1) – Apple+

With Season 6 of The Handmaid’s Tale coming out on Hulu in April, as well as Season 3 of The Diplomat (Netflix) and Season 5 of Slow Horses (Apple+) due to be released this year, the drama competition will be intense. Peace!

#Severance is trending and I took a peek while trying to avoid spoilers. Apparently the season finale has aired and it was well received.

I'm only subscribing to Apple TV+ for a single month once or twice a year. Time to do it again!

In related news, Apple is reported to lose a billion dollars on streaming. But honestly - why should I stay subscribed year round. All the movies and series it teases me with are not included in its flatrate so there's just Severance and #Silo.

I had assumed this was lead-up to something in Silo 18, but no, this Third Shift chunk of the second Silo book is about another Jimmy we met in Silo 17.

“Whatever you do,” he said, “do not open that door for anyone but me or your mother. Understand?”

“I understand.” Jimmy clutched his arm and tried to be brave.
