Snork.

BTW, #TSLA is down again. Not by much, but you'd expect a long anticipated launch to provide a bump. Unless it's the ugliest fucking VCR rewinder on wheels.

We also have the thoughts of the late Anthony Bourdain.

Henry Kissinger has died. Finally.

Let us remember him in the words from Hunter S. Thompson's obituary of Richard Nixon:

"Kissinger is a slippery little devil, a world-class hustler with a thick German accent and a very keen eye for weak spots at the top of the power structure. Nixon was one of those, and Super K exploited him mercilessly, all the way to the end."

He freaking did it on stage, on camera, and called out Bob Iger after asking if he was clear enough.

Wow.

Apologies to Melania Trump. I was wrong and it was a poorly lit picture.

She was wearing a grey and black coat over a black dress.

Fair is fair.

The conspiracy researchers are ON THIS to uncover the real truth! Let's look at some quality Q sleuthing:

Q: He weighs more than 150 pounds!
A: 150 is the default field value. He's not 6' either.

Q: There's no such city as Slema!
A: There is a city named Selma.

Q: The mug shot doesn't have an official seal on it!
A: This isn't a RICO case in Atlanta, mugshot backgrounds differ.

Q: They just want his guns!
A: Not a felony.

I've seen better research and logic by middle schoolers.

Anyone protesting at a funeral is despicable. Anyone protesting at Rosalynn Carter's funeral is both despicable and ignorant of history.

Waiting for public denouncements, otherwise, these look less like protests and more like excuses to sow discord.

Disgraceful. I don't care what your cause is, this isn't going to win any support. Westboro Baptist Church, indeed.

OK, I take it back. I said Melania would be fine at Rosalynn's funeral.

She didn't wear black and we know she has plenty of it from previous pictures.

Unforced error.

Side note - I really like Laura Bush. I wish she had gotten more opportunities during her time as FLOTUS.

Amusingly, while he seems fine with losing advertisers, it's really starting to piss off his Alt-Reich "content creators" who make money off of...

Ad engagement. Payments are way down for the big accounts.

Even Pepe is sad. 🤣

Wonder what decision AI would make? 🤔

I like my pilots breathing, experienced, and arriving in pairs. And reviewing the logs for more than numbers.

There appears to be a mass exodus of speakers (minus at least Bob, of course).

Among the excuses given was that the high visibility speakers wouldn't commit to a conference without female presenters. 🙌🏻

Except he'd been doing it for years, so it was a fraud.

Response from Gergely. Also a direct strike. It's starting to feel very Dilbert Guy.
