What a pile of bullshit. People who can’t stand on their own merits want to tear down an arguable great leader. I hate living in a world filled with powerful people who are devoid of character.

World’s dullest sheetrock knife? Or is that plaster and lathe?

I’m wondering how lawyers are feeling knowing that everything they’ve learned is now useless and the outcomes of all their cases are at the whims of a handful of sociopaths.

Just keep creating. Just keep building. Just keep performing.

If there’s anything to be learned from this shitshow, it’s that if you keep moving forward it’s harder to slow you down.

If an e-commerce site has a problem, it doesn't suddenly collapse on someone and crush them to death under it's weight. Tech bros often forget this when they try to apply "move fast and break things" to non-tech spaces. In a reasonable society, we would have guardrails preventing these disasters.

I have shelves of books about game development, and I wonder… why? Will I move them to my next house? Is this industry not in serious decline, like whale oil, or apothecaries?

I’m not even sure I have documents for mine, it was so long ago. Luckily my girlfriend trusts me.

Too many "great" men suffer from the same delusion: I'm better than everyone else, the rules shouldn't apply to me.

This is ultimately a path to anarchy, for even when several people band together to achieve this goal, they will inevitably stab each other in the back at some future date.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Also, this endless greed by the ultra-wealthy is insane. I have enough money to impulse buy almost anything I want, and I’ve discovered that doesn’t bring me joy. This insatiable need for more is a sickness. At some point, high-EQ people find contributing to and helping others brings true joy.

The entire notion that anything other than a business should be run like a business is absolutely insane, and displays a profound shortsightedness. Governments and Society should not be run like a business. Only a heartless sociopath would want that.

I keep getting texts from Democrats decrying the state of the Nation, and then asking me for money. I am no longer convinced that the Democrats are not merely a fundraising organization to fund further fundraising. I will reward them financially when I see material progress in restoring Democracy.

People who have given up trying to be happy are people who will actively seek to make others miserable.

I guess it all makes sense when you consider that Musk believes he's living in a simulation and he thinks everyone but him is an NPC.

But Jesus, wearing a baseball hat in the Oval Office? Talk about disrespect.

I suppose giving speeches and asking for money is ONE WAY to deal with an active crisis. Perhaps just not the way we need right now.

If we don’t hold on to our irrational traditions, will we have any traditions left at all? 🧐

A FACT is information minus emotion. An OPINION is information plus experience. IGNORANCE is an opinion lacking information. STUPIDITY is an opinion that ignores a fact.
