Welcome to Jengaville

I've been following a lot of big stories that involve what would seem to be increasingly unstable dynamics like a market bubble in the middle of an economic collapse or a pandemic response based on trying to spin anything under a quarter million American deaths as a win. and I'm starting to imagine a city of closely packed and sometimes interconnected Jenga towers.

I read about Wirecard and I see one tower swaying. I read about Berman and I see another tower listing to one side. I look closer and I see blocks the towers have in common.

I'm not predicting when things will fall and how they'll land, but if I had to bet, my money would be on soon and hard.
