Shownotes

This week we’ve been thinking about cultural appropriation, TikTok engagement bait, white supremacy, and AI slop. Plus, Simran thinks bullying might definitely be ok in very small doses.

🖤💛❤️ We recorded this episode on the land of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nations, but Simran and Ryan met and grew up together on the land of the Kombumerri people, part of the Yugambeh Language Group. We’d like to acknowledge and pay our respects to Kombumerri annd Wurundjeri elders past and present. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land. We encourage settlers like us to Pay the Rent.
