Anyway, Gerri represents everything a woman must sacrifice to make it in modern corporate America. I think the infamous dick pic episode masterfully captured this.

You have Shiv on one end, who wants to use the dick pic event to neutralize her brother, and if that means killing Gerri, too, then so be it.

Then you have Gerri, who wants to burry Roman's indiscretion deep and move on fast. Gerri knows the only person in danger is her. Women don't get to call out powerful men for gross behavior.

"Kellman" in German can mean the manager of a cellar or provisions. Yiddish has a similar meaning. Manager of a room/space (or so the internet tells me. I'm not a linguist).

I like that Kellman is close to "kill man" lmao.

Rustup 1.29.0 has been released! 🦀

Rustup, the tool for installing and updating Rust, will now download files concurrently and unpack them in parallel, which makes updating Rust much faster. ✨

See the blog post for all the changes to rustup: https://blog.rust-lang.org/2026/03/12/Rustup-1.29.0/

Gerri Kellman

Gerri represents the wrong side of patriarchy; the story of Corporate America. She is a competent general who could easily assume the CEO role, but the glass ceiling (Logan) prohibits her from doing so.

In fact, Gerri is arguably the *only* competent person in the bunch. Yet, she's respected the least. Her and Roman's dynamic highlights how the right dehumanizes women.

The rest of Silicon Valley are waiting to see what Sam Altman and Jony Ive bakes up for this yet-to-be realized AI thin-client device category.

If they get it right, everyone will follow. Everyone except Apple.

I'm not trying to fan-boy Apple here. I'm saying that Apple is the only giant with a local-first strategy for computational power. And as long as that strategy is successful, consumers can fight off the cloud empire.

I think the MacBook Neo is a hint that Apple is working on a MacBook "Ultra" specifically designed to run LLMs locally.

Apple's deal with Google Gemini gives Cupertino breathing room to develop an LLM from the ground up that runs completely sans-cloud. They're gonna do the "enclave" bit of marketing for it. Or, if the hype dies, they'll never release it.

This is a good thing imo. *If* LLMs/Agentic AI are here to stay, we want friction against the cloud-tethered future pushed by big tech.

Ewan Roy

Ewan represents the America that never was—academic, socialist; think the progressive era and the green new deal, etc.

The Academic Left, as an American power structure, is the most critical of the current conservative rulers, but when it comes down to it, will fiercely defend the status quo from radicals.

Ewan is the epitome of the righteous indignation and monopolization of morality from this faction of the left. He's talks a lot of blood money, but his hands are not clean.

I passed out last night like at 830 so I left the thread with "Marcia is Israel" lol sorry.

Anyway, check out this Vanity Fair cover of Succession composer Nicholas Britell.

Britell breaks down how he composed what is probably the best TV show score ever made (imo at least).

It's really interesting!

Do y'all like Succession? Have I shared my Succession Theory of Everything?

How every character is an allegory for a specific American power structure or concept?

Okay, first. I just want to say that I love this show so damn much. I've never watched a show that begs for analysis as much as Succession. It's so well written it makes me not want to be a writer because who could ever top this show?

Okay, okay. Let me take a stab at this 😬 I can't promise it'll be as good as it is in my brain.

Caroline Collingwood

So, if Marcia represents Israel, then Logan's other ex-wife would also have to represent something too, right?

Right!

Logan Roy's ex-wife Caroline is a British aristocrat. She symbolizes the past relationship between the British and Americans.
Together, Caroline and Logan birthed Roman, Shiv, and Kendall.
Or, Great Britain* and the USA birthed the three major political ideals—conservatism, liberalism, and, whatever Kendall is (we'll get to him 🙂).

*Or UK, or England idk

But, it's her dynamic with Logan and his children that really sell the idea that Marcia represents Israel in Succession.

Through the show, Marcia possesses a sort of undefined, unofficial authority. She has Logan's ear, and is privileged to sensitive information. Logan financially supports her, and she has enough leverage to demand more money.
Logan's children often fight with him and each other, as they feel Marcia has too much influence.
Worth noting: Marcia is played by a Palestinian woman!

Marcia Roy has a mysterious history. She was born in Beirut, and moved to Paris after the Lebanese civil war.

The show does not explicitly state what Marcia Roy did in Beirut before moving to Paris. But based on history and timing, it's possible Marcia provided intelligence to Israel leading up the Lebanese Civil War.

I even think the writer's based Marcia on The Beirut Spy: Shula Cohen

Maybe someday I will be as forthright as @researchfairy (whose long-ago post about how, even if LLM output is correct, it's not worth the harms experienced by data workers/moderators in the course of training the model, has stuck with me for years)
But until then, at least I can point to external guidance as I beg people to slow down a little.
