Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I listened to ezra klein's podcast sometimes before he moved to the NYT, thought it was occasionally interesting. . every time I've listened to an episode since he moved it's been some of the most credulous shit I've ever heard
like, there was one episode where he interviewed a woman whose shtick was spending the whole time talking in what I can loosely call subtext about how she fucked an octopus. she'd go on about how they were 'tasting each other' and their 'fluids were mingling' and such and he'd just be like wow what a fascinating encounter with an alien intelligence. this went on for an hour and at no point did he seem to have a clue what was going on

ok I looked up the transcript and these were the most spicy bits, which in my memory had come to dominate the whole episode
EDIT: her shtick does not seem to have been confined to this interview
another day volunteering at the octopus museum. everyone keeps asking me if they can fuck the octopus. buddy,
@blakestacey @sc_griffith my "No I did not fuck the octopus" t-shirt is raising a lot of questions already answered by the shirt
buddy,
the answer is yes
