Another great post, following on from your last. The availability heuristic is noticeable a lot on X/Twitter with people saying 'why is nobody talking about XYZ?' and I'm screaming at my computer, 'they are you idiot, everyone is, you just don't see it!'

Maybe I've asked before, but have you read The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel? I read his blog posts regularly and I love his material.

I forgot to mention one interesting prediction other than the Simpsons - in Back to the Future 2, they kind of predict/anticipate a Trump presidency as well - have you seen this?

I appreciate the connection here to the Simpsons. As a nearly lifelong fan, the analogies are easy to relate to, as I am challenging to think through bias. Thank you for your post Francisca - an excellent way to start my morning here.
