How America and Iran danced to the brink of war...

It was not an assassination. Quit playing into the fake news media’s talking point. Even Obama’s DHS secretary has debunked this one. If it was an assassination, so was the killing of Osama bin Laden.

Not available in Japan.

I’m 100% convinced this is what happened.  They held him, investigated and realised that a ton of Japanese execs are implicated and this is exactly the sort of thing corp governance is supposed to catch and didn’t.  Also why did we let the shifty Gaijin run 2 of our companies?!?!?!  Fuck.  This could get awkward. 

Yeah I’m sorry but choosing not to subject to myself to an inherently unjust and malicious system is not the same thing as making a calculated decision regarding a natural, purely odds-driven risk. My odds of getting in a car accident, catching a disease, or even getting eaten by a fucking tiger if I go off on a

Oh you need to GTHO with that “don’t misbehave if you don’t want to get in trouble” nonsense. The reasons they make less arrests need to be explained by a vast and far more culturally complex set of information than some farcical “they only arrest the actual bad guys” reasoning.

I like this guy more and more. Fuck that Japanese kangaroo court system. They weren’t going to give him a fair shake in the first place.

I’d be down for that news cycle, if only because it would add some variety to the usual revolving door dumpster fire we’ve got going on.

To be honest a significant part of me hopes Rudy does flee across borders because I’m morbidly curious to see how cheeto-in-chief tries to play it off. 

Can Rudy take his orange turd of a paymaster with him when he goes; sooner rather than later would be nice.

Dammit, people, don’t give Rudy Giuliani any ideas! You know he is itching to flee to Israel, Russia or Turkey when the indictments come down.

That is a way better value than getting a base model BMW, Audi or Mercedes with nothing in it if options are important to me.

Lots of poor red states

A. The only thing worse than autoplay is autoplay with sound. I know I’m speaking to the choir, but seriously. Fuck autoplay.

I don’t get how you can say that. This is a thing of sublime beauty.
