welp. here I stand. corrected.

Unfortunately true. They sell more to people who do less. There's no shame in owning a big van that can do the same things but still service a family.

It also barely works. The most obvious other witch would be Gilda and she was a good witch. I know that there were 4 witches and two were evil but the people that get the joke are likely going to think of Gilda first so it's kinda a stretch.

My main issue with the Cybertruck (before Elon revealed himself to be a total ass) was that ITS NOT A TRUCK. How can you call it a truck without a truck bed?

Remember when they first made the change and all over social media you had the fake videos of people showing you how to drill into your phone because -- "The jack is still there guys! promise"

Patrick Stewart was generally very kind and well liked in his field. He has also given very honest interviews where he admits that his career was most important thing in his life. Not with arrogance or pride but a sad self-understanding. There are elements of Picard in him, even if the whole of the man is not Picard.

It all adds to the whataboutism noise. Every so often someone dies or says something that will make everyone pause and think or mourn together. The trolls can't have that so they will find the one moment or talking point that will pull the angry base back into the fold or at least stop the thinking.

It kinda sucks. Like, there are some truly awful people out there and then there are some genuine and good people who have at one point or another had a bad take.

Trolls like to make you think it's all the same.

The exact opposite of what Aaron Swartz would have envisioned for the site.

One of the first toys I remember having was a small model of the Enterprise D with little shuttles that you could land in the shuttle bay. One of my earliest memories is cuddling with my dad and watching TNG. While I'm not proud of it, I once threw a fit at the planetarium because we were going to miss TNG if we stayed. I saw every TNG movie in theaters with my dad.

This feels like a loss of a family member.

The answer is obvious.

Goat Milk Soap.

You know...that's fair. I can see Musk trying to take Meta. or Google.

It's Saudi Arabia. They're basically in the dark ages with the oil money to buy modern infrastructure. It's an absolute monarchy, You get the death penalty for being any flavor of queer, It's a surveillance state. They literally sent a kill squad into a foreign nation to (successfully) brutally murder a journalist. We don't hear it much because of all the other constant noise in the digital world but they're not good people. Everyone turns a blind eye because they have that sweet sweet oil and since like the 70s the US has been on it's knees for them.

Don't get me wrong here. It's a very nice looking place but it's built on some of the most terrible human rights abuses you can name.

They have almost open slavery. It's not a good place. The fact that they were allowed to buy EA at all is a problem.
