hey, so last night i was walking and listening to ngũgĩ wa thiong’o’s decolonising the mind, thinking about how stories mess with us—like lord of the flies pretending to be about "human nature" but really being a colonial fever dream. then i got hit with how triangle of sadness does something similar, dressing up rich people guilt as critique while keeping us trapped in the same system. this episode is me unpacking all that: how these stories seduce us, how they make us complicit, and how maybe we can start dreaming better. let’s get into it.
