Friday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
I support Elon Musk's idea to charge $1 to all new accounts from countries like Turkey and New Zealand that are known to produce spam bots as a way to help eliminate these same spam accounts. Also serves as a tariff against those same countries for not doing the policing themselves. Hope other platforms follow his example... And just like that Americans come out in favor of a conservatorship for Britney Spears... RFK Jr. now says he supports reparations in an effort to maybe appease the Left side of the Democratic spectrum. Or maybe that’s just who he actually is?… Malignant Intelligence would be a good name for a blog, Substack account, or a band name of any kind... I can't be the only one who habitually reads the name Russell Kirk as Kurt Russell... Hard to believe that Tom Jones' What's New Pussycat is now a children's song. I find that funny... Tesla missed both its earnings and revenue estimates but while this was going on still reduced the price of most of its car models. I don't think this should be anything to be worried about but at the same time you have to wonder if these things are related? Were they dropping the prices to boost the sales, to increase the revenue?... Penn State at Ohio State is the big game this weekend and the Buckeyes are favored by 4 points. No way I'm touching this game and no outcome at all would surprise me. The Nittany Lions could pull the upset or Ohio State could deliver a beatdown and make one wonder if they were duped by James Franklin once again. Will be watching the game though... Have to wonder if you put the Vigilante Party on the ballot in San Fran - how many seats would they win? People are getting pretty sick of how things are. currently... Speaking of: Small Distinct Piles of Human Excrement would make an excellent name for a blog or Substack account about politicians or the slogan for why the Vigilante Party is running for office... Will be interesting to follow the enrollment of U Penn and U Cal-Davis after the revelations about their reactions to the attacks in Israel. Guessing we'll be looking for two new college Presidents after a short bit...
