“I don’t want them to advertise,” Musk said. “If someone is going to blackmail me with advertising or money go f*** yourself. Go. F***. Yourself,” he said. “Is that clear? Hey Bob [Iger, CEO of Disney], if you’re in the audience, that’s how I feel."

Yeah…

Life’s fulfillment is in many ways measured in the quality of your relationships. Frankly, if you want to make meaningful relationships, you need to be the kind of fellow you or a regular person would want to be around.

You can’t really be a different person and you shouldn’t try. Instead you need to be the best version of yourself you can be. The one who listens well, or does nice things for others without expecting a reward. You have some positive instincts in there somewhere, but if you indulge selfishness, it will drowned out any of the positive aspects immediately.

Don’t do this attention seeking bs. If you want help, get help. The world is full of others seeking connections and you’ll break the hearts of family if you take the way way out. Maybe that’s what you want? Have an impact just by inflicting harm? I hope not, that’s what bad people do.

Get into bird watching or any other hobby. There’s tons of poor, interesting, people with deeply filling lives out there. You’re not uniquely suffering I’m afraid. Just pittying yourself.

Also causing structural damage to the 737 Max in the process. Interested to hear how many bolts were left out of the yaw damper once the FAA incident report comes out.

No you’re right. It’s like Mitch Hedberg used to say about drinking though… Still does, but he used to too.

They are, but Wells Fargo too.

If you ask a Marine they’ll confirm that they’re a department of the Navy, but then qualify it as “the men’s department” before devolving into a yut-fest

Absolutely one of the worst takes I’ve seen.

These aren’t settlers and they weren’t running a Canadian Indian school burying children out back either. Kids trying to share their beliefs (misguided as they may be) aren’t colonizers and if they aren’t welcome, execution is not the right answer you troglodyte.

It’s not rocket science to expect a society to condemn extrajudicial violence. Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad about it.

Have you been to East Oregon or Idaho? They’re way ahead of you. Looking for an extremist compound and lax gun laws? Look no further. Good potatoes though…

Hey! Nobody post anything TrickDacy’s seen online before! WT actual F guys!? Don’t you know he’s seen this already!? FFS!

Man is it refreshing to hear a Taiwanese perspective in the mix. Every post, every comment is a bunch of armchair “experts” talking about an issue they clearly haven’t the slightest personal experience or context for. Not to come off as a jerk but it sure would be nice to hear what the actual people involved think instead of rank speculation. Reminds me of all the infectious disease experts during covid and military strategists in Feb 2022.

Initial capability of 90x truckloads of aid per day, scaling up to planned 150x loads capacity. 500x needed a day to meet the requirement and vastly more inefficient than simply driving it in. JLOTS is not a replacement or even a fraction of the need for simply opening the Rafah gate—where aid trucks are already staged to drive aid through without needing to add dock operations to the equation.

RIP Sikorsky push-rotor dreams… Pour one out for the poor CAB XOs trying to maintain an OR rate. Nothing against tilt rotors, but this will be a dark time for Pathfinders and PZ/LZ control.

I wonder where it got it’s name from?

Today in “win stupid prizes” news…

I’d just love to see something non-formulaic this year. With the writer’s strikes, and state of the film industry, I’ll take anything at this point.

(Don’t interpret this as criticism of the writer’s guild. The people who make the art should absolutely be able to support themselves while executive split blockbuster profits)

First off, we’re free speech absolutists and censoring Hunter Biden’s dickpics was the crime of the century.

Secondly, anyone who disagrees with our unfathomably narrow worldview should be met with the full might of the state!

Free speech! (but not like that)

E-TukTuk!

Sadly this noble soldier would not survive to see victory in Europe as most records point to the great beast becoming a casualty in the battle of the bulge.

T-Rex warfare was best suited to the Pacific theater, but strategic priorities resulted in bringing even suboptimal resources and weapon systems to the German offensive.

RIP sweet prince, RIP.
