Mbourgon everywhere

The Catheter Cowboy needs some new Fox ads, amiright?

I really hope you’re right.

Fun fact: the term “quisling” (a traitor who collaborates with an enemy force occupying their country) is due to the actions of Vidkun Quisling during WW2. Musk already means something, alas.

All he has to do is step back. People have short memories. He has enough wealth to weather it until people forget and start buying Tesla again, especially if Trump keeps throwing him contracts to keep up the stock for a year. I wish there was better news, but unless sales flat out stop and the stock crashes, he wins. And the board will kick him and say “see, it’s fine now”, pushing aside the fact that his whole wealth is based on the stock, so even if he’s out, he benefits. That said, could he leave Tesla without the stock cratering? So maybe there’s a way he’s held accountable. But sadly, I wouldn’t hold my breath.

He absolutely wins. In 5 years his role will be forgotten or whitewashed and Tesla is just a car company again, and he’s worth a trillion at that point.

He’s been useful, but it’s starting to hurt his pocketbook. So he steps back, people start buying teslas again in 6 months, trump doesn’t get the blame, they win.

Put “DEI” requirements in the billing requirements

Spartan was a fantastic David Mamet movie, and he was great in it… like everything.

Really good article, well worth the read.

One potential issue is that you have no idea what they’re selling from that (I assume that’s part of the business model). But in general, there’s weirder stuff out there - just make sure that whenever it’s “choose friend or AI”, choose friend.

“Which isn’t exactly the kind of atmosphere that screams “Happy 9th birthday, Jimmy””

…but does scream “happy 14th birthday”…

Most credible colleges require shot records. Even Baylor requires the MMR vaccine (https://healthservices.web.baylor.edu/services/immunizations#%3A~%3Atext=Routine+Immunizations+REQUIRED+for+enrollment%2Cfrom+first+day+of+class). I’m sure there are some crappy religious “colleges” that don’t require it, but unaware of it.

Yup. I desperately wanted Apple to support the PowerPc clones back in the 90s, and there are still times I wish that they were more open, but they have their place.

It got this from his phone contacts, so while some are totally expected, one wouldn’t necessary expect/want to see that he has some of those contacts.

They lied and will continue as if nothing has happened. You got the sound bite.
