Yup - the end of the two party system. But not in the way anyone imagined.
The bread and circus is just mind-boggling. I'm gonna go back to my future forecasting because it's based in reality...
Should be a fascinating panel - I'm excited to share my thoughts about communicating the future in the film medium. https://twitter.com/ArcLightCinemas/status/760173371724357632
RT @anildash: Feel like there are a lot of neglected Neko Atsume cats out there wondering how they can move to a Pokéstop.

The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor / And theres a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong #lyricsgame
I feel like the internet has devolved into the comment sections.
RT @XplodingUnicorn: Me: You need to get your ducks in a row. 6-year-old: I don't have any ducks. Me: It's just a saying. 6: Ducks go in…
Everything is going wrong / All my songs are coming true #lyricsgame
Fascinating /. comments on post about decrease in millennial sex. Relationships, gender, & expectations are changing https://science.slashdot.org/story/16/08/03/0155250/millennials-are-less-likely-to-be-having-sex-than-young-adults-30-years-ago-says-survey
There will definitely be an increase in #lyricsgame posts because election/politics & working lots.
I wish I could #lyricsgame Jamiroquoi's bass lines. So sick and funky!

The American Media are terrorists. "News" has turned into a war for one's freedom of perception.
It's not the government that is Big Brother, it's the Media Corporations.
Don't give this hate a chance / We've got all this love to give, you know / That this dream's alive, will still survive #lyricsgame

Light Sunday reading. Impressed by the Russian nihilists. https://www.instagram.com/p/BI0PCQJg4M-/
Coffee, toast, jam and Russian nihilists. Just a typical Sunday morning in my brain.
@rightfuture LOL? Do anarchists eat avocado toast? Nihilists don't.
AI & the Suburbanization of the Mind. Do we lose our humanity, as we augment ourselves? w @jayiorio & @heavyprojects http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/62237
I'm looking forward to this interesting conversation/panel after the movie. https://twitter.com/Slamdance/status/763074016672264192
I don't want to say too much, but I'm doing a writing thing w/ @nselby & some other fantastic writers...release date in early 2017. #vague
@nselby vague tweeting ftw!

I had great fun sharing what a futurist does and causin trouble for storytellers. ;-) https://twitter.com/Slamdance/status/763228811743760384
Over the last 2 weeks, I learned I have lots of opinions about lower thirds. And a good lower third implementation can be so pleasurable...
I called @netflix to tell them my account had been hacked, but turned out it was my xbf who changed my language to Korean. Bc I like anime.
We can learn a lot about the current US political media climate from @InnuendoStudios 's Who is Phil Fish piece https://youtu.be/PmTUW-owa2w
I was one of the first people to say this about fintech/banking in 2011... it was shocking to consider back then... https://twitter.com/psb_dc/status/763464215399194624
I hope the calm and drama free life I've got going, continues. Kinda loving the boring life...

The black matter of my tweets does not mean there is nothing going on in the untweeted space. Quite the opposite.
Who's horrible idea was it to make a video about my bill @TWC ?
Dear @EvonomicsMag stop paying for social media promo. It's worthless & contributes to the model you seek to subvert. Eat your own dogfood.
I move fluidly from film producer to boss lady to writer to researcher during my day.... loving the gear switching.
GENIUS! Go phishers! Use advertising for phishing and take the ad industry down. #unintendedconsequences https://twitter.com/mikko/status/765938854406852609
Advertising might soon have w more security risks, than not... time to iterate web business models & business relationships, maybe?
GREAT POST “If it weren’t for retargeting, we might not have ad blocking” by @dsearls https://medium.com/@dsearls/if-it-werent-for-retargeting-we-might-not-have-ad-blocking-e304a4e057ec#.kc7m1ozbm
There is no Cormic McCarthy or Clint Eastwood of #bitcoin, #blockchain or #cryptocurrencies Do you feel lucky, punk?

So much good stuff, confirming advertising is dead, a long view, & an alternate take on "basic income." https://twitter.com/blakehounshell/status/766102819061374976
@dgwbirch are you sure this audience knows what != means?
@dgwbirch they might misread that as - "it totally equals!!!!"
@dgwbirch & how does one say that? bang equal? (my favorite)
@dgwbirch I love that an exclamation point can also be a contrarian! ;-)
@dgwbirch in some cases "bang" makes sense, others "not."
RT @nobantu: Have you been wondering 'what the heck is #IIW?' What Is IIW? https://vimeo.com/windley/iiw_promo Produced by IIWCommunity member @heath…
Indeed. https://twitter.com/dangillmor/status/766729233645330432
The thing before that thing in the desert.
What's the human cost of mixed realities? Find out at AI & the Suburbanization of the Mind http://bit.ly/2bchao6
@wavis no roads of any kind? Or no paved modern roads? What about footpath roads? Dirt roads? Gravel roads?
@ricetopher @alexhangan banning manual transmission is about the most ridiculous thing I've heard. 1/x
@ricetopher @alexhangan And I fail to see a future where manual trans drivers have higher costs. They are generally *better* drivers.
@ricetopher @alexhangan just look at chip credit card adoption to get a glimpse of how this is gonna roll automotively...
I can't tell if my feeds suck, or the world sucks... going back into my research hole...
@AlexHagan @ricetopher ok. I remain skeptical. Are you replacing motorcyclists and bicyclists as well? Seems a very biased/skewed view.
@AlexHagan @ricetopher those words paint a pretty picture & I'm sure the trends support them, but I remain skeptical. See Amish.
@AlexHagan @ricetopher I did a podcast with @AlexRoy144 and this came up. I remain skeptical.
@AlexHagan @ricetopher and I can totally drive faster (safely as well) if traffic rules were obeyed.
@AlexRoy144 @AlexHagan @ricetopher I'm still not convinced. The picture is too perfect & organized. Humans are not. Needs more chaos.
@wavis now I'm confused. What are you asking?
@Ruth666 It's my pleasure!
Always a pleasure! https://twitter.com/RobotOverlordz/status/768174942324199425

I love stumbling across websites designed circa 2000. Hardcoded, pre-geocities, most of the time due to academic web searches.
Someday, the design of twitter and fb and wordpress will be quaint and archaic.
And certainly, sometime in the future, the internet will be a very empty place. We will have moved onto something quite different.
With that future know our species? Cat selfies? Humans as the pets? #wellmakegreatpets
@mpesce lol, I was hashtag quoting perry farrell. ;-)
@mpesce for you: https://youtu.be/FSOHO3GwEPg
@TedDundon OMG! Frames! Is that a frame for a banner ad even!?
Congrats! @jonibrennan is also a star in the IIW documentary & trailer http://www.internetidentityworkshop.com/ https://twitter.com/mydiacc/status/768842493387386880

@sfslim Have you written something about this facing/living w/ the urgency that has changed your worldview? (& I missed it). I would read it
Saying goodbye to friends playa bound. No fomo. I dive deep into academics, research & my own beloved (empty) Mojave. #nohumans
@ianbremmer @JSCarroll coolest (aka surrealist) dog is @trueamericandog
I wish there were mandatory visible date/time publish stamps.
@wavis I grew up in the midwest in areas w/o highways, later visited after some were built, so I am aware of this phenomena.
@wavis do you have a certain circumstance in mind? who/where would these people be currently living? what age?
@wavis it seems to me there have been roads/footpaths/something of this placeholder, before even cities/communities/small towns.
Self-driving cars solve a simplified "problem" of "transportation". Vehicles solved a broader "problem" not limited to transport.
@prestonjbyrne So what. Nevada is a short drive away. Also, they are grandfathered if you owned prior.
@prestonjbyrne I love shooting an AR-15 as much as the next, but we don't need functioning semi-autos in any state. They are tools of war.
@prestonjbyrne yeah, like maybe dealing with PTSD and other mental illnesses as well?
@prestonjbyrne also sexism and income equality. Hell, why we are at it, let's just save the world!
@prestonjbyrne maybe I know something about what I am talking about, hmm? I have a variety of weapons in my arsenal, not to worry.
@prestonjbyrne I also have a zombie cabaret in case things go that way.
My 10 year old zombie cabaret, Zombies without Borders, was brought back to life for Saturday's show: https://www.facebook.com/events/1009181985861283/
I would like this too. You know @AlexRoy144 ? https://twitter.com/dsearls/status/768807739933896704
Also attn @rosiepongracz. But maybe not necessarily "spy," rather, "monitor." https://twitter.com/dsearls/status/768807739933896704
RT @MelBrooks: Gene Wilder-One of the truly great talents of our time. He blessed every film we did with his magic & he blessed me with his…
On the drive to the dome, I figured out how to do basic income properly. 1/2
I also wondered what the world would be like if we spent the same $ that was spent on autonomous vehicle technology on mass transit instead.
Self driving cars, mass transit; capitalism, government infrastructure/socialism. Both solve the need for transit in very different ways.
@danafus it was the next tweet. I haven't revealed my "solution" yet.
@danafus fastest way would be to come over with wine and cheese. :-)
