I've been meaning to make this post for a few years now. After my experiences in the Army I was very keen on the idea of expansive public "tool libraries", inspired by the tool rooms and motor pools that I'd used to check out equipment and vehicles on an as-needed basis. It always struck me as a much better way to allocate things that were not needed by anyone all the time. I don't need a pruning pole saw every day, so why should I waste storage space on something that I'll only use for less than 2 weeks every year when I could simply sign one out from a local depot for such things when needed?
These podcasters fleshed out and expanded on that premise in a way that I can really get behind. If you dig into my #srsly wrong tag you'll find a few more good episodes. I highly recommend their interview with David Graeber, too, but I don't think they've done a truly bad episode.

And now a special message from the RIAA and MPAA
You wouldn't hunt down and murder an innocent child
You wouldn't throw a newborn kitten at a brick wall
You wouldn't beat an artist within an inch of his life
You wouldn't help drug cartels assassinate journalists
You wouldn't start an orphan sex trafficking ring for fentanyl money
You wouldn't elect an unrepentant child molester as president for life
So why do you think it's okay to do that exact same thing, except online with digital file sharing of movies and music?
What are you, a genocider?
Are you a moral monster?
What's wrong with you?
You wouldn't become super-Hitler and invent ultra-slavery,
groom an army of school shooters on Fortnite,
facilitate a genocide so big it becomes known as The Genocide,
kidnap all artists and put them in work camps where they worship you as their twisted god and make content for you to listen to for free,
so why do you think it's okay to do that exact same thing online for movies and music?

“The ideology of infinite economic growth destroys the ecological foundations of human life, produces alienating ways of living and working, gives rise to undemocratic productive forces and techniques, and mismeasures our lives, standing in the way of well-being and equality of all.”

I saw people on twitter talk about how Jack Black and Neil Gaiman are 'good Jews' because they are not 'evil Zionists'. The reason given? They are for a two state solution.
And I don't know how to tell this to none Jewish people kindly but uh.................... that. That's Zionism?
Believing in Palestinians right to have their own State, self determination and the right for a safe home, for education, for a life free of Hamas and Terror in a Two State Deal is Zionism because the other state in this deal???? Is still Israel. it is still a Jewish state. It is still believing in our rights to return and stay in our ancestral homeland.
Being for a two state Solution, for peace and for working together can and is part of being a Zionist !! And also you don't get to call people good or bad Jews that is antisemitic as fuck.
