We have sold the same glass of lemonade back and forth between eachother 8 million times so somehow we both have negative tax rates now!
They said on Trashfuture that the banks who financed Musk’s Twitter takeover are unable to resell the debt. They are now stuck with a large and essentially worthless asset that is hanging like an albatross around the legs of their portfolios.
This has allegedly already caused some bankers to not get their bonuses.
Capitalism drives innovation!
The innovation:
The closest I can come is blackletter or fraktur scripts that were once used for generic languages. As far as letters go they are silly and overcomplicated, with Latin scripts being far easier to read and more adaptable to different visual styles.
With that being said, they do have their own old-timey charm and there is something satisfying in being able to pick up a old book in blackletter and read it when you know that most people can not.
Fun fact: Blackletter was only used for Germanic languages. If a text contained non-Germanic passages it was normal to set those in Latin letters while the rest was set in blackletter.
I love the idea of a modern runic script, suitable for contemporary Scandinavian languages. Would you care to elaborate on your thoughts on this?
I feel like too few people truly grasps the body horror of teeth. Those fuckers are terrifying.
Whatever type of chilli mayo I feel like making that day. Or remoulade, the sweet Danish mayo-based condiment with chopped pickles and curry powder.
Two guanos enter the presidential palace, only one leaves alive.

Get an electable candidate then.
Someone I knew was living in an old building with old-timey fuse boxes placed outside the apartments. When she got tired of her idiot neighbours partying on a weekday night for the millionth time despite being asked to dial it down she finally had enough and went to the fuse box and took away all the fuses to the neighbour’s apartment.
She never had trouble with noise again.
When I went to university, our lecturer would literally pass around a flash drive with the ridiculously overpriced textbook he was the author of. He was a cool guy who had the extremely valuable skill of turning a dull subject interesting.
Taking back control from the guys who actually won the election.
Why are our tools of imperial enforcement no longer working as they used to? Could it be because they are wielded by the failsons of failsons who have steeped in imperial propaganda for so long that they actually believe it?
Nah… It must be the pronouns.
Good. The inherent violence in the relationship makes it fundamentally impossible for a prisoner to consent to sex with a prison guard.
I don’t know the details of how the US legal system works but isn’t a plea bargain essentially the same as a settlement in civil cases?
If so, it should (at least in theory) have very little prejudicial value since the courts did not rule on the question if Assange’s culpability.
I know that in the real world the US regime once again learned that it can get away with murder and journalists all over the world have already learned the lesson that the evil empire will fuck them up if they air their dirty laundry. But from a legal nerd point of view a settlement should be quite useles as a precedent.
Everybody will know that this is a forced confession anyways so who cares?
Taiwan is China, even the separatist regime in Taipei agrees on that.
When I’m reading the dinosaur book with my four year old they always point at the brachiosaurus and say that it’s me, so that’ll be my favourite dinosaur.
Everett is just being a misogynist asshole.
If it was just about being loyal to his wife he wouldn’t be slinging insults at a woman who did nothing to wrong him outside of inviting him to a slightly naughty party game.
