A populist game show host manipulates the media to his own enrichment, sounds unrealistic.

me watching Zuckerberg prep for 2020
I used to work for Facebook, and Zuck always came off as fairly grounded. Like Bill Gates, he's socially very liberal, very smart, is donating 99% of his wealth to worldwide philanthropy, and lives modestly. If we're gonna pick billionaire businessmen to run the country, we're already doing way worse.

His biggest liabilities for a presidential run are:
- "young harvard-educated chinese-speaking hyperrich jew nerd" makes him ever so slightly unrelatable and unlikable
- people thinking The Social Network was a documentary
- comes off as having engineer's disease: "I'm a successful expert in this technical area, so I'm an expert in social and political areas."
- appears to be a robot?

Sheryl Sandberg would probably be a better choice, since she comes off as decent human being and actually has some political experience

brutalism just owns in general, but it's all about the site it's installed at and the greenery around it

The Barbican's entire population is either elderly people who never leave the house, or City Square Mile bankers who leave for their country homes on the weekend. So it's mostly a 3000-apartment ghost town. I hated living there, and the greenery & water features did nothing to counter the horrible concrete maze.

"First of all, I choose the great roles, and if none of these come, I choose the mediocre ones, and if they don’t come, I choose the ones that pay the rent."

The Oscar winner once said of his role in "Jaws: The Revenge" that "I have never seen it, but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific."

I hope the pay is good. A friend of mine looked into a computer system admin position in Antarctica. The bar was set really high because you couldn't just be a computer janitor, you also had to be able to repair electronics, since it's not like you can just go down the road to Frys and pick up a new part.

A: I demand respect because I'm a job creator!
B: If you could replace those jobs with a cheaper / faster / better robot, would you?
A: Of course. The shareholders would want that.
B: So you're only creating jobs out of necessity, not because of any high-falutin' principles.
A: Ahhhh I have fallen into your clever trap, I am truly owned. *lights cigar with hundred dollar bill*
