The more interesting challenge: Fixing the “failure of imagination” that @pmarca gnaws at, but doesn't fully bite into. It’s a symptom of a culture paralyzed by monopolies and a gov't that protects them. It’s about questioning entrenched incentives + inspiring creativity. (3/3)
Two explanations for the discrepancy between this chart and @pmarca's assertion that "We chose not to build": VC money wasn't actually used to build things, or VC money wasn't building the right things. I suspect it's a bit of both. (1/3)
Evidence for the former: Throw a dart at any stories of the VC-subsidized decadence of the past 24 months. The latter: Look at how the fragility of our supply chains and withering of critical supplies manufacturing is killing people forced to use rain ponchos as PPE. (2/3)
@hannahvsthemany Five hits from the best scene to ever hit suburban southeast Pennsylvania, circa 2010.

@666deadG Hey your tweet came up in my feed while I was searching for info about that Kent State gun girl pooping herself (I can explain). Just wanted to let you know people love you, even complete strangers!
