I need a review of You Can See Everything from someone who has never watched any Fielder shows and knew nothing about the Theranos case. I have not seen a full episode of anything Fielder has done but I did work at a financial news company during the Theranos trial, so...

You Can See Everything was a great film but I am already predicting the tired meta-discourse we're going to get from the Very Online Film Guys in the next week. You should see it yourself! It does a lot to make you think about the nature of documentary and self created mythologies of Silicon Valley.

Don Was and the Pan-Detroit Ensemble performing a few songs and a front-to-back “Detroit-ified” performance of the Dead’s Blues of Allah. Included an Isley Brothers guitar solo over Help on the Way, Music Never Stopped>I Only Have Eyes for You, and an Otis Redding breakdown in Crazy Fingers.

We've been past the point of no return for a while now, Meta's business interests (sell more AI tools, encourage more AI in-app, pay for a blue check and Meta plus subscription) are in direct conflict with its Trust and Safety interests.

I've been eating at Noodletown for the last ~15 years, often late at night after drinking, many times bringing friends who want to "see Chinatown." Rob Martinez has stepped up his videos in a big way lately and glad to see him put some more shine on an NYC institution. youtu.be/mBEoAXrwTYw

@mayor.nyc.gov you know what you need to do

Free product idea: Letterboxd but for YouTube videos you watched

My only contribution to the dumb iced coffee discourse is: what jobs are y'all interviewing for that have in-person interviews?? I have not interviewed in person since 2020.

We've finally reached the point of just reinventing ChaCha from first principles en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChaCha_...

I've seen this one before

The two photos in my head every September 11th: "Lover's Lane, New Jersey" - Thomas Hoepker, 1983 “Wheatfield – A Confrontation: Battery Park Landfill, Downtown Manhattan – Blue Sky With World Trade Center” - Agnes Denes, 1982

I remain uncertain if this movie "needed" to be made or not, but from the teaser trailer alone it looks like Garfield 100% nailed Altman's weird little physical mannerisms youtu.be/rDZplZFnbOk

If you're not tired of brand-produced series interviewing "creatives" showing their "archive" "inspiration" or "reference material", you will be soon.

I once had a rep from Muck Rack, the industry standard in earned media and PR, tell me with a straight face that a piece of content received "over 8 billion views" and when I asked to confirm "are you telling me that basically the entire population of Earth saw this?" they said yes.

guys i think we can just start calling things "woke 3.0" now and really mess with them

Considering investing in $SPCX? I have a bridge on the moon to sell you instead!

How it feels looking at Instagram these days

What I think people closer to the marketing industry could see very early that is now becoming painfully clear to everyone is that OpenAI and Anthropic are less tech companies than they are PR/comms/lobbying companies that happen to own a tech product. This is classic spin covering a bad product:

Thinking about this post again today

Why do so many people turn their phone over (face down) when using it to tap-to-pay? Is this just a bizarre side effect of skeuomorphism where people think the card is physically in the screen? Was there some bad tech demo that people got thrown off by?

If Dimes Square was shorthand for the downtown post-ironic horseshoe'd to right wing Substack glitterati, I think we should start using Hudson Square as shorthand for the new wave AI accelerationist Palantir chore coat wearing bag chasers

For so long I thought F1 was the most deeply unserious sport, but no, every four years I am reminded... it is soccer.

Was setting up ads directly in Meta Business Manager for the first time in a long while yesterday and holy shit the amount of "AI enhancements" they try and force on to you every step of the way is astounding. Started making a lot more sense why there is such a glut of slop ads on Instagram now.

Trans rights are human rights, political funding should not tip the scales of American democracy, and the constitution says what it says. Other than that, I'd simply remind my friends to not post anything they wouldn't want to see quoted on Fox News tonight. (That's what the group chat is for.)

Jackass: Best and Last made me oddly emotional

44% of social marketers think their boss doesn't understand social. Instagram is still the number one priority for social teams. A lot of teams want to create serialized video. All this and more in Pt. 1 of the results from Link in Bio's annual vibe check survey: www.linkinbio.news/p/social-med...

after 2 years and change at compulsion games, i'm looking for work! if you've been waiting for a chance to work with me, pls inquire within 👁️ bijanstephen.blog/about

The good shit. It’s hard to explain the energy in the city the last few weeks. The rallying cries, high-fives, nods, and “yerrs.” The feeling in the air that great things are possible. All I can offer this morning is a sincere thank you. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/14/n...

BING BONG

Having a great time in all these new group chats with my friends! They're all here too, just out of frame.

Greatest city on earth. Bing bong.

Just saw someone doing DoorDash deliveries in a polychromic painted Cybertruck

Fireworks going off in Bed Stuy. Bing bong.

Lol would you pay $2.99 per month to... change the font on your Instagram bio?

The only take I have on the Ferrari/Jony Ive EV is that they should have never branded it/badged it as Ferrari and used this opportunity to start an EV sub-brand instead. The car looks _ok_ I guess, but it definitely doesn't "look like a Ferrari."

Extremely sudden loss. Busch won a race just last weekend and I think it was only announced he'd been hospitalized earlier today. His stat line is unrivaled. A helluva driver with an elbows out style. RIP.

For the first time since 2020 I am flying somewhere for a meeting and flying back in the same day. I’ll be on the ground for less than 8 hours. This feels doubly neolithic considering I was on a video conference with the same people for two hours yesterday.
