Conversation

There are many really long, detailed, and messy conversations on Twitter about interesting and important stuff where people with expertise actually get somewhere. But it’s really hard to follow them. I’d like stylized quasi-fictional shorter renderings of these as a genre 🤔

Like this huuuuge climate thread which I started reading somewhere in the middle due to a quoted tweet. I’d like a training montage version of this with the dozen or so participants reduced to 3-4 ficyiobal characters and much of the noise and repetition pruned.

@MLiebreich Hi Michael, you quote IPCC WG3 as giving the 1970-2010 emissions increase & saying "Business as usual would see that rate continuing" and you claim it's promotion of RCP8.5 as BAU But RCP8.5 has a much faster rise in emissions than 1970 - 2010 about.bnef.com/blog/in-climat

A big lesson of Twitter is that we should appreciate screenwriters more for NOT writing dialogue in movies/tv realistically. Fictional characters on screen talk way more clearly, interestingly, wittily, and *directly* than real people. It’s not just umms and aahs that are cut.
