Good morning. This week’s been one where it’s somehow both dragging and flying? Do you ever feel that way? It’s weird.
Anyway, lots of good stuff circulating the web this week. Let’s get into it:
1/ Loved this piece on how big tech is ruining our lives.
At the time of publication, this issue still hasn’t been resolved, but the point isn’t $150 or $817. To me, the issue is that our lives have been upended by the sharing economy.
All these tech companies promised disruption and it’s here.
Nothing works anymore because the sharing economy turned all the cooks into chefs. The “HOST” is anyone with a vehicle, but that doesn’t mean every HOST is taking on the responsibility of a business owner. They like the idea of being a business owner, they like making money like a business owner, but not every one is capable and responsible enough to run a business.
and…
When people lose faith in the economy and can’t trust the people they purchase services from, the entire financial system crumbles. All of this disruption by technology has left the economy and our society in shambles because not every cook has the values and work ethic to be a chef.
2/ You can pay someone ($247) to make a decision for you. She seems pretty chill, tbh.
The truth about decision making is that people mostly do what they want to do, especially in romantic relationships.
Bonus/ <3 Miley Cyrus and Brittany Howard.
Thanks for reading. More to come soon. Have a great Thursday.
