3. Started to show some hopefulness with the woman in Texas won a lawsuite against a plastic manufacturing plant after taking daily samples for years. But then dashed with talk of plastic bags and the state governments that would ban and threaten local governments from imposing bans or taxes

3. Nothing that I'm too unfamiliar with so far, but some "helpful" reminders about how plastic is made from the byproduct of gasoline production and how interwoven those industries are. Was interesting to hear about how the soda companies switched from reusable containers to non-reusable and said that demand wasn't high enough for reusable containers. Pretty depressing and without much hope

4. Similar to Ready Player One, but enjoying a lot more. Comedy is sometimes (as well) too over the top, but I think the biggest difference is that there aren’t as many easter eggs/deep cuts/references that you have to know. More up-to-date and modern as well

4 Was worried that this would be too comedic, but so far it's surprisingly enjoyable and hits a good balance being comedic, without going too far

3. Enjoyable. There is suggestions or threats of the wider world, namely a war, but mainly it’s a catty reality show thus far

5. Really enjoying. Excited to read. Draws you in and uses language that is easy enough to understand. Only know this from Bostrom, but some of the terms they seem to claim as their own are established terms like superintelligence and intelligence explosion
