Considering they’re worth $0, getting a $20k equivalent seems generous.

A crypto company, ostensibly one that lost most of the customers’ money, still has $16 billion in assets? I find this impossible to believe....did they own half of the Bahamas? What besides real estate could produce value into the 11 digit level?

Chris Pine:  How much could a shabby apartment in LA cost?  Ten dollars?

I’m a big fan of Pine, and good for him for making his own version of BIG LEBOWSKI, but this:

I love that this exists, and that someone put a lot of time and effort in to building it.

He shouldn’t be hard to find with the three gauge-shaped bruises down the left side of his face.

What should the US do? Cut Israel off

I can’t believe we have to choose between a guy who will certainly spark a genocide, and a guy already actively supporting one.

I mean, I’m going to vote for Biden, because he’s still somehow the lesser evil, but the Dems really don’t help their “there are differences between the parties!” argument by (not so) slowly…

Steve Bannon describes it more bluntly than “firehose of falsehoods.” He calls it “flooding the zone with shit.”

This tactic actually has a name. It is called “the firehose of falsehoods.” The idea is that the opposition spends way to much time talking about what you said and also doesn’t have the resources to counter every lie you tell. So some get through and accepted as truth and they never get their own message out there. It…

Not usually a yarn-on-the-wall guy, but “snitches get stitches” and “send a message” to prevent future testimony would be the responses I’d expect. Not going to suggest there IS a conspiracy going on, though, at least nothing more than trying to cover standard managerial incompetence in the most managerially…

The ACTUAL problem is when Drake forgets that he told his listeners the truth (he’s a sensitive soft boy), and tries to craft a dangerous mafioso narrative around himself, as though the people he wants to find the latter compelling are totally unaware of the former. He’s so insecure about his place that he tries to…

But Musk rejected the idea that monkeys in Neuralink labs died gruesome deaths, claiming instead that they lived in “monkey paradise.”

“Meh, no one put a gun those people’s heads to get in the carbon fiber coffin.”

Not unaware at all. They got the structural failure alerts and were trying to ascend when it imploded. They knew what was going on.

Where is the horse and the rider?

Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind in the meadow. The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.

I mean, he could be an incredible Doctor Doom.

HAIL THE VICTORIOUS DEAD!

Anyone else find this as tiresome as I do? I want to enjoy it but it just looks like more of the same.
