They will still say it was vaccine death, and this was fabricated to cover for it.

Eh, it’s easier for them to say it was mRNA shedding from vaccinated people hanging around his house.

they would just say “LOL NICE DIGITAL WINDOWS, THIS SHIT AINT REAL!!!1111ONEONEONE”.

“I’ll just open up this fake airlock door now.”

Besides the Covid vaccine, I also have consumed some dihydrogen monoxide. Shit.

Donald Trump doesn’t know how to operate a website

“Someone told me I need pipes for the website. We need to get the best pipes. Do they come in gold plate?”

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

But someone recently said he revived the NFT market single-handedly, with people making a bigly 1000% return!

The loophole seems to be having an app pinned to the screen (I’ve never done this, but it presumably keeps the phone from locking) while requiring you to have an unlocked phone to use NFC payments. This doesn’t seem to be a common scenario (I can imagine doing this in some sort of kiosk mode, or giving the phone to a kid and locking the app so he can’t wander around).

That’s the Federal indictment brought by Jack Smith, not the State indictment brought by Fani Willis. Moving the Georgia case to Federal court would involve the Federal court district proximate to Fulton County, not relocation to a whole other state.

Maybe all his companies are like this, it’s just the first one that’s been so public and shown his true colours.

I’m not going to look for it now, but there was a Twitter thread from last year that kind of talks about this.

Basically, SpaceX and Tesla are companies that grew up with Elon as an early investor, and have learned early on how to contain him. They institutionally have firewalls in place to keep him from wrecking the real work they’re doing, like dedicated Musk-handlers that slow walk his bad ideas until he changes his mind a few days later.

Twitter basically had none of those institutional firewalls, and could not container him with company culture.

Meanwhile, you have the Elon fanboys still pretending Twitter is doing better than it ever has.

Well, it is, if you’re a Nazi.

Suppose you were a business making, say, voting machines. It’s a good business – there are a lot of elections, they have to be tabulated, and you have a way of making that tabulation easier to do. You’re not going to be Google or Microsoft, but you’re in a comfortable niche.

Then comes a bunch of dumbfuck conspiracy theorists who accuse you of rigging the vote against their favored candidate. You’re not happy about this, but this is just a bunch of nutjobs. To some extent, what can you do? Then this major news organization takes up what those conspiracy theorists are saying, and they’re doing this to enrich themselves by putting out news that these dumbfucks like to hear. This amplification is damaging to your business (because it’s costly to defend yourself and you’re losing business anyway), and you can prove that this major news organization is doing this on purpose, for their own profit.

You sue that major news organization. Discovery is a delight, because these people really did know that there was no evidence for any of these conspiracy theories, but they kept repeating them over and over again, damaging your business.

Does this sound familiar? That’s why we have laws so that victims of libel can recover some of those damages.

Now, I’m not saying Musk is justified. Musk can go threatening to sue, etc., and I’m sure ADL lawyers would be delighted to argue before a judge to tell Musk to fuck off, since he really doesn’t have grounds to stand on.

To be fair, those are Mission Impossible chase scenes really disrupt traffic.

Ah, yes, Little Bobby DROP TABLES;

I love this bit from the description:

While currently located within the Princeton Public School district, the municipality where the house is moved will determine where students will attend public schools.

As if some people may assume the school zoning would follow the physical house where ever it gets relocated. It’s one of those lines that gets added to the description because someone asked that question in the past.

And the BBC.

Frankly, all news organizations should run their own Mastodon servers as authoritative sources for their news articles and their reporters. Right now, with the ever changing badges on Twitter, they’re just Star-bellied Sneetches.

“OK, how can we make a web interface more difficult to use?”

“In your nightmare, you urgently have to go, but the toilet keeps receding away from you…”

Putin:

I thought I had him in a box.

And then he got out like a fox.

And then I saw him in a house.

And I then he went to Belarus.

So I will track him here and there.

Say! I can track him anywhere!

I do not like this Wagner man!

Thank you! Thank you, SAM-I-Am.

I need to point out that “aliens communicating in memes” was done by ST:TNG, in the Darmok episode.

Alien: “Shaka, when the walls fell” (essentially Disappointed Guy meme)

Picard: …

Why does Baron, being the tallest Trump, not simply eat the other Trumps?
