I'm convinced that this world is now inhabited by about a dozen people and the rest of us are all just paws I. Their little game. Between Zuck, Altman, Musk, Huang, Putin, Trump, Xi, MBS, Bezos and a couple of others we basically can put all these people in a single room and if somebody locked the door, the world would just be better off. Corporate capitalism is the root of almost all what is wrong in this world and these dozen or so are to blame

There is a theory that Trump was told he should consider Dana White for press secretary who works in a similar roll for the DOD. Of course Trump wasn't paying attention and immediately thought of the other Dana White and thought this would be an amazing idea one that could only be matched with his hiring of Stephen Miller as chief of staff. It's like we aren't even trying to hide the ludicrous incompetence anymore when it comes to White and the pure bill when it comes to Miller

Unlike Trump, Elon can at least admit he made a mistake. After a couple of years of lackluster sake, Tesla I pulling the plug on the Cybertruck which brought as much excitement to the country as a unmedicated colonoscopy. Somehow, even after all these bad designs and flops, Tesla remains a darling of Wall Street with its sister company SpaceX right there with it. But it does show that Musk is willing to drop losing items to his brand as quickly as he's willing to drop wives

We all know they the AI bubble is going to burst but we are all also petrified to miss out on the gains in the meantime. We know we can't time the market and we've been told to never bet against Wall Street but man does it feel like there's blood in the water

There are a bunch of posters up around the bus routes about all the excitement of a new Port Authority. Nowhere on these signs do you get any real information or a sense that this will actually happen but you are sure that they spent a pretty penny on making them and hanging them up.

There must be a few ketchup bottles being hurtled across rooms in DC today. The night isn't over but the thought of Trump seething in his oversized suit and stupid long tie is just to awesome to ignore. I'm not ready to count any chickens but so far, the country is telling us one thing and we hope they keep telling that same story all night long. Except for Florida, they suck.

The Swedes make a good meatball, subpar furniture and great fish but their legacy may be that they aren't getting further sucked into this Google Classroom bull. It's about time to get kids back to normal books and notes and number two pencils and away from yet another technological lie.

When your entire staff resigns in protest over your endorsement of a political foe, you ight be doing not wrong. Haley Stevens is being courted hard by Trump as seems particularly butt hurt by the fact she won't be allowed to become the female Fetterman. She's awful and her own ego is going to get in the way of the threat shea claimed to go up against.

I'm reading this story about some amazing umbrella which is expensive but they justify it with an amazing warranty. My issue isn't that I'm going to break my umbrella but I'm much more likely that I'd leave it in the corner of a restaurant. Not sure what warranty I can get for that.

A few years ago before AI was all the rage, everybody was going gaga for Crypto. I never bought into that hype but recognized that there was money to be made but it always felt like any money you were making was just at the expense of others. When $6B was stolen from the biggest crypto exchange, my first thought was to laugh. Not sure why I'm basically rooting for an economic downturn but I just hate this economy which seems to be completely propped up by absolute junk

What the check are with these third world countries and the dead chickens hanging in the window. I don't know why this is ever concidered appetizing but looking at some upside down fowl with a full blown gizzard doesn't exactly make me want to order a spicy chicken sandwich..or at that point anything at all.

Netanyahu is pulling a page from Trump's playbook and claiming some kind of blame election fraud and as per the playbook made popular here is to single out a portion of the electorate and paint them as the evil villain. As no surprise to anybody, the victim to his unsubstantiated claims are the already marginalized Arabs. The danger of this can't be understated but sadly, much like Trump's MAGA base, the base will eat this up and use it as their justification if they are handed a loss. One thing is for sure, humanity loses.

A new book claims that Kushner got Sexy Rex Tillerson fired after the UAE paid him a cool $50million. None of this is shocking and all of it is totally predictable but at this time when Americans don't seem to care about swamps or drains, it's going to fall on total deaf ears as we have basically become Egypt and openly accept corruption as a way of life.

The headline today was that the Chinese AI bubble has already burst. This is not in itself shocking but the fact that this is coming out before it happens here at home is what gets me. It must mean that this could be much worse that we have been imagining We have seen some softening of our market but who knows how deep this thing runs but I'm guessing pretty darn deep

I heard Obama stumping for Democrats does the Midwest this weekend and although I still love to hear him speak l, having him out there shows that the Democratic Party is still reaching. They haven't replace Obama nearly six years after he left office, he's still their biggest draw and it's not close. I'm not sure who's going to take the mantle but as long as he's not on the ballot, we can't expect him to make a real difference.

I've never wanted to prove Greg Abbott right more than today. He said that if Texas elects democrats, the GOP will lose the next presidential election which makes me want to send another donation down to Talarico This sounds like heaven

There really is no more depressing place than the men's rooms on the 2nd floor at Port Authority. The place is persistently covered in piss, smells like human feces and the floor is like a fly trap as your feet will stick to it permanently if you don't basically tap dance through the place. They have an attendant constantly mopping but it's impossible to keep up with the vile nature of the NJ commuter.

I just can't get hurt again. I've gone through so many elections with the promise that this time it would be different, this time we would find our better side and elect somebody who doesn't sound like us or speak like us or pray like us...and every two years pensioning disappointed. I've come to grips with the idea that America won't elect a woman, a gay person, a Muslim or anything else they deem dangerous. We've lost the moment to the right and we are now just another election away from more Trump.

When I first read about the pollsters who purposely put out fake data, I thought here we go again. My first thought was that this is exactly what caused us to get into the crisis in the first place. Fake polls can get a certain political party's turnout to spike while reducing the other party's desire to get out. We know this is supposedly a social experiment but one where by doing so you are playing with a crazy fire with no idea where it leads. So maybe we should stop playing with matches in a wooden cabin

Reading that Elon Musk did something absurdly selfish and self serving isn't a surprise but realizing it affected thousands of people in a war where the aggressor needs no help at all, shows you who he is. The darling from the Wait But Why days is so long gone, relaxed with the heartless reptile whose entirety comes down to having never had a woman be genuinely interested in him, including his mother

Why does every espresso company sound like a NRA wet dream? I'm a coffee drinker but don't specially need to use that as a reason to try to show off how much hair I have on my chest. It's ridiculously lame that you can't walk into a Target and get a coffee that doesn't sound like it's a 5 hour energy.

I get why the student protests are happening across France but it always shocks me to see these things turn into looting of stores. I'm sure it's a few bad apples but it's difficult to defend a movement where a part of the population seems completely devoid of morals. Protest in the streets, call your government out and strike but looting stories and setting people's cars on fire has never made any sense to me regardless of what the movement is suppose to be about.

Elon is such a despicable human and has done nothing with his wealth to help humanity. He's got Ukrainian blood on his hands, will single handily spend more on this election than probably the rest of the country and is also disgustingly fat. He also will never find love, true respect or a belt that fits.
