Great stuff as usual! Cool that you were able to do a bunch of interesting/unique speaking gigs, though your description of the no man's land in which you end up watching Andor instead of working on the things you either "should" or want to be working on is painfully relatable.

I have a slight gripe about lumping the left and the right in together. While on places like Twitter, I completely agree, both groups tend to be insufferable, irrational, and often authoritarian, in the current broader political landscape, it seems callous to make the "both sides are equally bad" argument. There's no comparison between what the political right in countries like the US and UK are doing with anyone in those places who are left of center.
