libraries & podcasts

I think about the miracle of libraries often.
And I think something similar as I hear blips of Esther Perel tragically slinging furniture or clothes at me as I mash my +30s button: “oh my god, it fucking rules that we can skip ads.”
“Wherever you get your podcasts is a radical statement”
Libraries are an institution and podcasts a protocol, but they're both a gift to us, a path dependency first trod by our idealistic forebears.
