Silicon Valley has become a cancer on the world. There are too many companies run by greedy, unhinged psychopaths who do not care how their products and services affect the world. It's not just Thiel's companies. It's Meta and Google and Apple and Amazon and Uber and OpenAI.

The only thing Silicon Valley is missing is a series of volcano lairs for their founders and CEOs.

Dude's out there filing frivolous lawsuits like he's buying lotto tickets. I guess the other chuds in the cabinet don't give him the insider stock tips.

At the current rate the Russian army is going, they might advance to central Ukraine by 2039. So I understand the precautions being taken.

When you graduate dead last at a third tier law school, you end up as a prosecutor in HeeHaw, Alabama.

The worst part is that the coked up fish now spend all of their time trying to convince the other fish to invest in their new hedge fund.

A bot filled social media hellscape, where the only advertisers are MAGA branded products and services, gold scams, homeopathic junk and the Pillow crackhead, isn't worth billions?

I, for one, need to lie down.

Carlson also spent last week ranting about how the "civic religion" of elites is Israelism (whatever the hell that means). And he backed up that conclusion with the old "If you want to know who rules over you, just look for who you are not allowed to criticize", which is a quote from a Neo Nazi.

He's a bad actor who launders white nationalist talking points. He goes where he thinks his audience wants him to go. Don't give him credit for finally changing his rhetoric against Trump. It won't last.

The Muppet Line is 25%. Those are the people who are either so partisan, so misinformed or so dumb that there is no helping them.

We should be closer to the Muppet Line.

Knowledge Fight did an episode about Tucker Carlson last week because Jones hasn't been on the air. Dude's probably too busy drinking his local Costco out of Kirkland brand vodka to comment on this.

He's trying to be like his boss. But he doesn't have the pull to intimidate news outlets and discovery will be the end of this lawsuit.

There are like 50k people who looked at the Cybertruck and thought: "I want to spend $100k on that!"

We shouldn't be judging the past here.

I had an old BMW. I park in the back of retail parking lots because I don't see the point in circling lots to find a space that is 40ft closer and you can pull through the spaces. Lots of times I would come out of the store and another BMW would be parked next to mine, like there was some automotive kinship or something. There would be five open spaces, some guy and my car. It was always weird.
