The Trashfuture Podcast Ltd FY24 Pension Allocation Call
Added 2024-10-25 17:49:43 +0000 UTC
Riley, November, and Hussein review some of TF Ltd’s strategic investments in the Humane Pin and the Apple Vision Pro, before moving on to look at the replacement of more humans in creative roles with ChatGPT in the UK entertainment industry, the desire of UK armed police officers to be treated like their American counterparts, and finally a reading on the inner life of Masayoshi Son… as we of course do at every pension fund allocation meeting.
T-SHIRT ALERT Two new t-shirt designs—Avignon Popes and Banished to the Lagoon—are available for pre-order on our website. Get them here!

Well, yes. The reprise. With songs like that I feel like only including the first bit is like watching Fellowship Of The Ring and being all "ah, looks like they fucked it. no point checking out the rest"

Well, the reprise is at least. The first performance is super upbeat, surely nothing bad will happen!

Yeah Horse Soldier gave him a bad rep for some good reasons and some bad reasons. Recently he's been pretty vocal about his opposition to an open pit coal mining operation in his his neck of the woods. He's a great song writer. His politics seem to be like most reasonable people: evolving.

Genuinely a bit too excited to hear of another Skies of Arcadia fan. Incredibly charming game.

Feels a bit weird to mention Corb Lund singing "i wanna be in the cavalry" without mentioning that the song is about ending up starving to death after eating your own horse.

Well at one point he was caught up in a controversy because he said people trying to Bring Back Coal-mining are just desperate folk trying to breathe life into a dead industry because rich people told them to? Also seems generally negative on the way the army is sold to people.
Like, dunno what all his politics are but what I have seen seem pretty decent.

the fun thing that wasn't mentioned in the Labour goes to North Carolina kerfuffle is that the Labour staffer who posted the LinkedIn notice is Sofia Patel, Head of Operations, last seen fighting and losing a council by-election in what had been an extremely safe Labour seat in east London.

It's always nice when the show returns to its roots (in this case, Mr. Masayoshi Son). Perhaps a certain Australian money farmer can come back for a cameo appearance soon?

I’m really tired of hearing about the US election on this show. I feel like I’m pretty disconnected from the actual state of the race as an online leftist in the States, I don’t want to hear extremely online British leftists opine on it.

I saw an actual Neom branded product at Gatwick recently and no one from Trashfuture was there to join me in pointing and shouting. To my knowledge. But I can now share that Neom has manifested as a dinky little hardshell backpack.

Multiple American soldiers who served in the occupying forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, who went on to careers in American law enforcement have quit those careers in disgust, and one off the reasons they usually cite is the complete lack of accountability of police officers who do stupid shit, and the complete lack of any willingness to prosecuteoffciers who commit crimes up to and including murder in even the most egregious cases. These former soldiers, who were kicking down doors in Fallujah and shooting kids suspected of wearing suicde vests consider American police to be loose cannons with zero checks and balances.
