These people appear to have a completely inverted perception of who’s David and who is Goliath in this situation. Although I’m not exactly surprised Sorkin doesn’t bother with any real power analysis. 

True! So many reasons nobody bought that story to begin with.

It would most likely end up being subcutaneous and cause a skin reaction like an abscess.

But leave in the “I should know, I’m a medical doctor!” bit. Feels fitting.

I work in tech. When he was running for DNC chair he was pitching himself to all the VC billionaires in Silicon Valley and they all loved what he was selling them (a couple of them were non-stop talking about what a promising candidate “we” finally had at our holiday party). Huge red flags all around.

Every single one of those candidates generated a ton of vitriol. He’s not unique in this at all.

I misread this as “Pete is the AI Gore” yet I can’t say I disagree.

Narrator: she didn’t

But did the Chinedu incident make it in?

I haven’t rewatched it since it aired so I can’t remember the reasoning behind this, but I recall being surprised that people remember it so fondly when I thought of it as more of a downhill slide.

Fair! I’m coming out on the opposite end — the continuous conscious awareness of how callous these people are with ordinary people’s lives while insisting on their own comfort and safety is making this hit different.

Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s an absolute scumbag who appears to have been aware of what was happening and the vast majority of artists in his position would have at least paused the show until the situation resolved. But this is not solely on him.

Scott was encouraging his audience to treat security as adversaries as well (and possibly wasn’t cooperating with the show shutdown), and I’m sure we’ll find out exactly what share of culpability that amounts to. But it’s foolish to rely on the artist to handle security from the stage — their field of vision is…

The fact that the purple velvet one is so close, yet not quite the same, to the one Johnson is wearing in the promo shot behind him seals the deal as that one being worse for me — despite Diesel’s jacket being objectively more heinous.

It’s all three of them (Diesel, Johnson, Statham) per WSJ.

Well neither gentleman can ever be seen as losing so of course it’s gonna be boring. 

The fact that these two seem intent on reminding the public about this dull feud every couple of weeks makes me think it’s definitely a PR stunt.

It’s especially egregious seeing as they clearly anticipated a rowdy audience based on their promo video.

I’ve been to a couple of shows where the venue cut the power without the artist’s direct approval (one was due to an unforeseen lightning strike, the other because it was past curfew) so I’m struggling to understand why that didn’t happen here.

Seems pretty plausible that someone could’ve dropped live ammo into the dummy box without realizing; them introducing a conspiracy angle, however, only makes me think the armorer did it herself.
