Ten Thousand Posts is a show about how everything is posting. It's hosted by Hussein (@HKesvani), Phoebe (@PRHRoy) and produced by Devon (@Devon_onEarth).

Joe Kassabian, host of the Lions Led By Donkeys podcast and sci-fi author, comes back on the show to talk about Yukio Mishima, once Japans most famous novelist, who led a failed project to restore imperial glory to the country- only to be booed and commit Seppuku.
Joe talks to us about what Mishima's novels, and their preoccupations with death, tells us about his eventual fate. He also tells us about how Mishima developed the Shield Society, a private army of guys who were dedicated to getting shredded, and all in love with Mishima. Of course, we also talk about Mishimas posters impulse, and why it seems to resonate so much with the terminally online right today.

This is a preview of a bonus episode. Listen to the full episode on Patreon for as little as $5, at www.patreon.com/10kpostspodcast.--------Edi returns to the show to update us on posting in China, and in particular, explain why a medium-sized factory manufacturing glycine went viral on TikTok.
Edi talks to us about how Chinese companies and factories use social media and how it differs from business in the Western world, how China's social media culture is even more driven by algorithmic consumerism than in the US and Europe, and how that has also shaped its unique influencer culture. Edi then explains how this might affect the US and China's ongoing conflicts about the future of the internet, and whether the proposed ban on TikTok may do little to prevent China's influence on how we all post online.

Journalist Sirin Kale returns to the show to talk about how and why content feeds change when a social media platform detects that you might be pregnant, and how weird, often dangerous content is targeted at new parents. Sirin shares her own experiences with navigating platforms while looking after a newborn, the comfort that it can provide new parents when other institutions are absent, and how to resist the abundance of online parenting content.
