Incredible work. Calling it now. This one will continue to get restacked for years and will become a Substack classic. Has a Yuval Noah Harari level of mind blowing sentences.

You just compared my essay to Harari and now I have to sit with that until my ego returns to normal size. Thank you for suggesting this might have legs beyond the algorithm's attention span. Now back to wrestling with the next piece before these kind words make me too self-conscious!

Nice to strangers. Ruthless to friends. Hopefully we get a chance to swap tones down the line.

Thanks Philip 🦾🦾 as a filmmaker, i feel the sound an essay makes inside your head is just as important as the visuals it suggests .. I’d love to bring that experience to the Substack format
