Goed verhaal, lekker kort

Heel bijzonder hoe een niet te traceren kind van zes op een huwelijk in Italië de titel van een New York Times-bestseller weet op te hoesten en dat de toevallig aanwezige Jona van Loenen dat dan kan gebruiken als aanleiding voor zijn Substack met precies dezelfde theorie als in die bestseller.

The only taxidermied blue whale in the world, 1865 CE, now housed at the Natural History Museum in Sweden. The public was allowed to enter the whale up until a couple was found having sex inside it. Now the whale’s jaws are opened only for special occasions, such as Swedish election days.

My guiding principle is that platforms actually don't — or even can't — suppress anything beyond nudity, gore, swears, some hate speech, etc. But I do think they can promote different content and incentivize users to make more of it. Which is what I think is happening on YouTube right now.
