Yeah, that looks more like a milk shake flavoured with a bit of coffee

… but then again, this is Dull Men’s club and I would drink that anyway … even though I am lactose intolerant

She’d probably love to be cheering in the crowd for the winner

Points a massive gun at you’re face … dead or alive, your watching this movie with me

It’d be great to have a whole group of people who look like this and wear this shirt … and have the actual Jack Black in the group

Points a massive gun at your face … dead or alive, your watching this movie with me

Yeah … it’s best to grab what money you can now and run … because you won’t be able to later

The conservative right is so unimaginative, uncreative and cowardly … that they had to spend billions of dollars building their own digital spokesperson to say the things they really want to say

Beautiful … we finally develop AI and instead of using it to find the cure for cancer, solve global warming, stop wars or find more efficient ways to build space stations and start development of spacecraft to travel to Alpha Centauri … we instead use it to build the Ultimate Racist Asshole

… and they’re doing all this in a biolab with glass containers full of exotic bacteria, viruses and spores sitting on open counters and table tops.

I think we have one of those in the Office of President of the United States of America

Yes there were … we just didn’t call them billionaires … we called them Kings, Queens, Supreme Rulers, Emperors, God Kings

The world looks exactly the same now as it did 2,000 years ago politically because the idea of supreme and infinite wealth never went away. We’ve always had men who believed they could rule or own the entire world … and we still do.

I always say and think about all this from the perspective of billionaires … all they ever care about is money and the free flow of money everywhere. As long as money is moving and people believe in it, praise it and worship it, everything else can be tolerated and controlled.

The internet and free flowing communication allows for money to flow a lot … without it money would quickly become segmented into tight regions and countries and everything becomes closed … which makes it harder for money to flow, which makes it harder for a billionaire to make more money.

Same with World War or even nuclear war … I don’t think it will ever happen on purpose because once that first bomb goes off, billionaires will cease to be billionaires as the world financial system collapses. The billionaires won’t care how many millions die, they’ll be more upset that their imaginary digitally managed wealth will either decrease a lot or even completely. They know that in a post apocalyptic world, no one will care if you claim to be a billionaire if banks no longer exist. You might say that billionaires will have gold stashes around to fund their own personal army … but that won’t work either because their army will just kill them to take the wealth.

All of it is possible because of human greed … all of it is under threat because of human greed … and all of it is held in balance because of human greed.

Speed running towards Idiocracy by 2028

Are you nuts? That’s a limited resource that’s going to burn out in about 4 billion years!

Fossil fuel is renewable … we just have to wait millions of years for it renew itself

Then wait a little longer until we get to the point where gas is so expensive that even subsidized fuel is no longer affordable.

Just wait until we can’t afford gas any more … everyone will start bicycling, running, walking and using public transit and asking for trains like it was the logical thing to do all along.

I usually hold onto the box of anything I buy brand new for about three months. After that you can get rid of it.

Electronics either work or they don’t, there is seldom anything in between.

If your device doesn’t fail or develop problems within a month or two, then it will last the warranty period and much longer if you take care of it.

I just hang onto the box for two or three months just to be sure.

The only other reason to hang onto the box is if you plan on reselling the device in a year or two. It’s a lot easier to resell for top dollar or a higher price if your device is clean, undamaged, has original manuals and the original box.

It could be a child or someone with dwarfism holding an oversized banana … we need more info

that is either an enormous banana or the smallest cat I’ve ever seen
