Don’t be fooled. Age is just a convenient lever. Identity verification is coming for the whole Internet, and will be advertisers’ and fascists’ collective wet dreams.

About 25 years ago I did my thesis on “Internet culture” and how it would shape society in the future. Had I known the phrase “echo chamber” I’d have looked like Nostradamus.

I live in South Florida, which has a climate not too different from Singapore. We normally have to scrub down north facing walls and windowsills every years anyway, since the mildew growth is real. it doesn’t really cause any harm though.

I would have picked one of the many garbage US cars from the "heydey" of the 60s/70s, maybe a Chevette or a Vega. There's no shortage of US lemons to choose from.

Better a little polyethylene than a pork tapeworm larva lodged in my brain, I always say.
