Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

Technology can therefore be defined both as an ensemble of deliberately created processes and objects that together accomplish some function as well as the associated knowledge and skills used in the conception, design, implementation, and operation of such technological artifacts.

Start with your silly claim that “advertising”, as you define it, occurred 30,000 years ago. Any non-suppositional evidence please.


What are you even on about? Persuasion is not advertising. And in the absence of a material culture for advertising, there is literally no basis for the 30,000 year claim. This is pure nonsense and the worst kind of bullshit.


Advertising is not a technology and there is no evidence that advertising occured 30,000 years ago. That time period predates capitalism, products and competition among manufacturers, and written language.


Go fuck yourself. This is someone who was a child when he watched his friends die to a school shooter. And then faced the worst that the rightwing noise machine could throw at him as they accused him of being a crisis actor and denied that the event happened at all. He has been attacked by politicians and media since before his voice changed. So fuck off with your milquetoast judgments about how something seems a bit “off” with his public persona.

I never really left the office. I had a 6 week stint working from home and then we were recalled. I’m in public safety so we were directly involved in the pandemic response.



I didn’t know any better.
