@Alex_Danco is one smart cookie--check out his take on why some ideas are self-perpetuating while others are not. 🧠 πŸ‘‡πŸ» https://t.co/AkWwi2fRBo
Girard's Mimetic Theory claims that any self-perpetuating system needs to be "different" to be stable, and the crisis of un-differentiation is resolved by an act of violence.

I'm not sure they are perfectly overlapping skill sets, but, as always, we'll see.

Interesting to watch this unfold. https://t.co/RxtD0YBZnn

What towns get fusion food trucks? Communities that value craft over mass-manufacturing. Similarly, areas with high ethnic diversity & educated cultural omnivores are more likely to get trucks serving Korean tacos. More traditional areas (with lots of steakhouses) are less likely https://t.co/tZLl3MDd6Y
