And even in day to day conversations we drop "sponsorship" messages in the form of comments that don't particularly relate to the moment but that are concerned with selling someone on a perspective, investment, or agenda we have regarding what others think of us, or how they treat us, or our status, or worth, etc.

A note on the advertising piece -- I find it bothersome that Amazon (and I think Netflix may be doing this too) has ads on their streaming service that you are already paying for. I'm not a heavy user of either but still, it's ridiculous. They waited until everyone ditched TV (which was the same model, pay us and we will show you ads too) and then once the majority converted to streaming started to add advertisements. Wasn't no ads one of the primary selling points of these platforms in the first place? Anyway, maybe this is an uneducated or misinformed rant. But it seems wrong.

Thanks for the interesting antics as always, Arman.
