  • That’s exactly what it is. He doesn’t realize that he’s just a tool, not the mastermind. But his ego and complete lack of self awareness won’t let him see it. Same with trump. They have spent their whole lives thinking they are masters of the universe, and now that they have that control, all they do is fuck up their goals, because they aren’t actually the ones calling the shots, and their goals are not why they were elevated to these positions. To steal from blazing saddles.

    “What did you expect? ‘Welcome, Sonny?’ ‘Make yourself at home?’ ‘Marry my daughter?’ You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know—morons”







  • After I set up my server and paid for the hardware, after my vpn, and after I paid for my Usenet subscription, and yeah, after I paid for lifetime Plex. I’m money ahead. Easily.

    I have no Netflix, Hulu, apple, Amazon. All of it. ,that’s a monthly sub for each. That’s satellite tv money each month!

    It’s not a rug pull. I got my money’s worth. And I’m late to the game. God forbid you are an early bird and have been living the high life for years and years! It’s not a rug pull at all.

    If the whole thing folded tomorrow, I’m still money ahead and a few steps away from adopting jellyfin. How the fuck is that a rug pull? It did what I wanted and has done it well. And when or if it fails, I move on. That’s more resiliency than 99 percent of the other services I have used. And a better service and platform to boot!

    Rug pull? seriously?


  • Ok. You first.

    That has always been the problem with the 2a crowd from either side. Momentum. The first few ten or hundred or thousand are considered crazy wildcards and psychopaths.

    Luigi may be a patron saint to a lot of people, but ain’t nobody stepping up without more momentum. And it never showed up.

    This isn’t any different, and that’s why it doesn’t work yet. Pay your taxes. Use the rest on things you support. Take that tax write off to give the gov a little less and donate to causes that are important. Get in arguments and talk politics at the bar and with your family, but put the guns away. It doesn’t help. So enough of it.

    Momentum is what’s important.







  • The funny thing about Elon going to war, is that Elon will lose. Fantastically so. The ketamine must still be flowing hard. 5 years ago Trump’s base hated his cars. It’s only when Elon hitched his cart to maga that they started to like him. An unsold cyber trucks are in mall parking lots and his stocks globally are tanking.

    So, now Tesla’s stock is in the shitter. Liberals hate him and don’t want his cars. And now the GOP will flip on him and also not buy his cars. He’s also now going to wreck his government contracts with SpaceX. Mars will never happen for him. And now Twitter will take an even bigger hit. Those ai protections can be drafted to exclude him and his companies too.

    He will absolutely damage trump and split a few people off, but he was in a losing position to begin with. Even with damning evidence and the persuasive media skills and charisma of a much more talented individual, he is so fucking cooked. Without that… Well, now there is only one psychopathic narcissist in the leadership role. So that’s nice.
