Anyone got the phone number to Robinhood's bookies?

I'd like a Robinhood prop bet - using 10x leveraged Bitcoin Magic Beans - that their bookies will steal Baggies' faces right off their skulls as they chase private placement AI deals erected by Sam Altman and Mr. 70s Pornstache here.

The "health influencer" to a constipated ex-podcasting CEO hath fallen.

I do. But I don't think Michael Saylor ever read the Book of J Roc, Chapter 1, Verse 1 which you allude to.

Yo, @omerta22.bsky.social . . . you'll love this!

Bitcoin miners such as $IREN, $WULF, $RIOT, ad nauseum, are now bragging about a transition of their servers and warehouses to AI. Hell, $IREN just signed a deal to build more data centers for $MSFT AI.

'Fake as F-ck': The Wannabe Rock Star Accused of Scamming Streamers Inside the first case of music-streaming fraud in the U.S., where prosecutors say musician Mike Smith used bots to earn millions in fake royalties.

Between 2017 and 2024, prosecutors say, Smith had as many as 10,000 active bot accounts streaming his music. While Smith had a catalog of his own work, he also allegedly purchased and uploaded hundreds of thousands of songs generated with artificial intelligence.

An anti-billionaire activist group named "Everybody Hates Elon" makes me smile.

And another backhand serve by Karen Palmer:

"Absolutely no one will be disappointed with the restaurant’s beauty (especially if you like beige) or the views, and even for folks with little love of luxurious dining, the people-watching is top-tier."

Who'd a thunk?

bsky.app/profile/cat9...

"The menu reads as luxe but is really equivalent to standard, soulless resort fare. Raw bar towers adorn many tables, because what says “I have money” more than a whole lobster, claws pointed up, atop a bed of ice?"

So the writer of this piece was Karen Palmer.

I found a Karen Palmer on Bluesky and I have to believe she wrote this stonecold review of a goofy "brand extension"

It's like taking Mar-a-Lago on the road.

And $10 million annual revenues show the Fools Rush In:

@karenpalmer.bsky.social

This gorgeous Orange County restaurant makes $10M a year. It's terrible. SFGATE's Karen Palmer loves the views but hates the menu at this luxury restaurant.

Laughing at this headline and this pretentious bullshit line of upscale restaurants opened by Restoration Hardware.

Props to the Editor who passed the two-word last-sentence review. Made me read the whole thing:

From the FT story:

"Lutnick told his audience that the world should focus on coal as an energy source rather than renewables, according to one person present, and made dismissive comments about Europe."
