Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

The greatest pottery-club lesson of all time is

β€œDo not fuck around with arts & crafts hobbyists, for many of them are neurodivergent women and they can manufacture, very fast, the most cartoonish, embarrassingly naked caricature of you and make sure that everyone in your town sees it”

Trump: "We're gonna cut of all trade with Spain don't want anything to do with Spain."

Note to self: fill a suitcase with those cans next time I visit my hometown.

And keep the receipt. Airport authorities might have questions.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

There’s roasting

. there’s intense roasting

..there’s roasting with potatoes

…and there’s the Furnaces of Hell, which is how both literature lovers and general public are reacting to the misogynistic, racist, inane clown truck claiming against all evidence to be a film based on Wuthering Heights

Basically, take the amount of money you think your favorite author gets, halve it, and then halve it again, and you have a number that's probably a lot closer to their actual earnings from writing.

"But I don't think they make that much!"

Halve that. Halve it again.

Entre el historial pΓΊblico que ya tiene la colega y el cambio fulminante deben haber horrores internos en la casa. Largar un CEO es bastante complicado pero han tardado mucho.

Tienes que haberla liado muy parda, interna y externamente, varias veces, para que tu board entre en modo control de daΓ±os y te reemplace urgentemente por un interim CEO. Y el CEO viene del VC? Fijo que les audita internamente. El nuevo puesto de doΓ±a gofres parece la alternativa barata a despedirla

Yes. Also lots of rich yt folks being like "well it's better for me personally" when we know DST will disproportionately impact kids and poor people with very early work start times

This International Women’s Day remember there’s a President who calls female journalists β€œpiggy” and β€œugly”.

Who said β€œgrab β€˜em by the p*ssy”.

Who’s been accused of child rape and found liable for sexual assault.

Who just blew up 168 little girls in Iran.

We have a long way to go.
