John, I highly recommend that you do not use that beeper.

Or do.

I’m looking forward to seeing the most fabulous masks that feathers and glitter can buy in Budapest this year.

Well, you are missing out.

What the hell is their beef with St Kitts?

You don’t have to be, simply all you have to do is remove the pinko.

False - these billionaires use their stock as collateral for loans. It’s all part of a tax avoidance scheme. If the stock goes down significantly, the banks come knocking.

Both of the billionaires pictured also head their companies in some way or another. Investors can vote to throw them out. Not that they would, but even the vote of no confidence is not a good look.

Peace in our time.

Sure, buy the 50 lbs of honey now. Convert it to mead. Profit.

New Medicaid Death Panel Commission:

VA Trump Aide: “These people don’t deserve to have a job!”

Things that make you go hmmmm.

If you needed one last excuse to get out of Utah, then let this be it.

This is the way. The idiots have been coddled for generations. They need to have the experience of their teeth rotting out for themselves.

Alice’s restaurant- Arlo Guthrie

Throw some blues in there and baby, you got a stew going.

Sure, but people are still paying, it’s just that the costs are passed down and obfuscated downstream. That burger you buy comes with a 2% advertisement premium. It’s not that people won’t pay with their limited funds, it’s that their priorities have shifted along with the mainstream model.

If they get much of their funding from Google, then I fear that the company that does no harm will eventually strong-arm Mozilla into disabling ad blockers.

My answer to that is for them to move off of Google search revenue, but they’ll need a decent funding stream to replace it.

I wish people were willing to donate more to the services they love instead of handing the reins to free-with-ads models. It’s like the drug we all can’t quit. And there is something to be said for being sustainably funded without ever-chasing growth.

Same as it ever was.

• Until AI can do it, they need warm bodies to do their bidding.
• Until AI can do it, they need warm bodies to fight their wars.
• The dumber and more obedient, the better.

They want to rule, not participate. Same as it ever was.

Never go bud to mouth.
