#WritersCoffeeClub October 27:
As a writer, what do you need right now?
A straight street—the Royal Mile will do—at least a kilometer long, with a billionaire impaled on a stake every two metres on both sides. (Don't worry, we won't run out of billionaires before we get to the end.) And complete criminalization of all commercial applications of AI. Plus the end of crapitalism as a cherry on top.
@cstross Personally, I just wish that we all accept that "trickle-down economics" didn't actually result in any wealth tricking downwards.
To replace it, I propose the elegant solution of Piñata Economics: We hit billionaires with sticks until all the money falls out.
