Episode notes

Mindscape is not about fighting whatever culture war battle is occupying people's attention at the moment. I'm happy to have people in the show who are active in such battles on either side, but i'm not going to talk to them about that. In my view, discrimination and systemic biases are just extremely real and perfectly obvious. People go bending over backwards to sort of ignore the discrimination that is right in front of them if it makes them feel bad. And i think that's kind of silly and embarrassing, and we need to do better.

Welcome to the June 2022 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! We are inaugurating a slightly different publication schedule, in which these monthly AMA will take the place of one of the regular Monday episodes, rather than being in addition to all of them. A slight tweak that will hopefully make my obligations a little more manageable.

These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). I take the large number of questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable size — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
