Whatdya mean used to be. I remember the 4Chan wars.
same vibe as chicken nuggets is family
I was there when the deep magic was written (or soon after to catch reruns), Monty Python was skewering the Post War Conservative British cultural zeitgeist in ways which audiences hadn’t quite seen before, through the lens of British toffs (oxford and cambridge) playing at being proletarians skewering toffs. It was different for British TV, but it was like a sea change when American audiences finally caught up and began taking notice. It was smart comedy, pointed, brutal, and hilarious. America wasn’t doing anything like this, at that time, going more for the broad jokes that would appeal to the lowest common denominator. Sure others have mentioned Brooks, and Berle, and Cartoons which had been sending up cultural norms for decades, but they weren’t Python, Python, at the time were a thing of their own. Monty Python’s Flying Circus ran from 1969 to 1974. Saturday Night Live started in 1975.
“The complaints stemmed from an August dispute over repurposing the Engineering Entrepreneurs Program meeting space.”
dude offed himself over this? really don’t know what to say except, man was wound waaaaaaaay to tight, and he was a bit long in the tooth to realize that people suck.
best: keep working and collecting a paycheck while you secure other employment, for as long as possible
pedantic, ignoring the historical ramifications or even existence of racism. in a perfect world it wouldn’t matter.
kanji look so much more like art than the latin alphabet do, to us
I bought a $300 HP i5 laptop from Walmart Black Friday sale three years ago, the battery drains when the laptop is supposed to be off, and now the HDMI port, and audio out don’t work, usb solves both these issues. Got the extended warranty for something like $29 for 2 years from HP when the 1 yr warranty ran out, but can’t be without my laptop to send it in for servicing. For $300 it’s been worth it, probably looking for another one sometime later this year. It’s cheap and it won’t last long, but it’s cheap. (*edit: just noticed this offering is an AMD chip, and I don’t fucks with those, so personally, I wouldn’t buy it, but that’s just me)
I’m sad to say you should prepare for the worst. Trump is the worst, he will do the worst things, without care for those his actions will hurt.
hence the arrest, arraignment, and bail
“It is now run and predominantly owned by chief executive Jay Graber as a US public benefit corporation.”
It’s that predominantly that’s the tell. The Guardian has no more idea who owns which and how many shares as anyone else, because it’s a privately held corporation. Yeah, i’m pretty sure, and when they go public, we’ll all be positive of it. If Dorsey wasn’t the largest shareholder, they would have been feeding THAT out to the press, instead of the incessant every present PR line “stepped down from the board” and “closed his account” lol
jack dorsey is the largest shareholder in bluesky because he founded it and has never transferred or given up his shares in it
that’s right, you absolutely are having a hard time finding ANYTHING at all about the ownership of BLUESKY, only that it was incorporated. zero on it’s shareholders, zero on Dorsey’s transfer of private stock/equity. absolutely nothing at all.
Remember kids, Jack Dorsey still owns BLUESKY, and if anyone is trying to tell you he doesn’t, they’re lying.
Dorsey is THE founder of BLUESKY, and is it’s largest shareholder, even though he is no longer on the board, and went through the theater of closing his BLUESKY account, he will have the say in pretty much everything, not the least of which, which fascist Elon Musk clone, BLUESKY is sold to, when of course it eventually it will be.
Fool me once.
Jack Dorsey founded bluesky, and is still it’s largest shareholder
Dorsey is THE founder of BLUESKY, and is it’s largest shareholder, even though he is no longer on the board, and went through the theater of closing his BLUESKY account, he will have the say as to who BLUESKY is sold to, when eventually it will be. Fool me once.
Donald Trump doubled (+100%) the black vote he received in 2020. Across the board minorities saw change in putting Trump back in the big seat, as apposed to the disaster he will bring to them, and their families. People went through the pandemic, only to be hit with what’s felt like the largest peacetime inflation, which was not handled by the Biden administration. Normal people don’t care about economic numbers when their paying 30-50% more for milk, eggs, bread, and rent. When faced with more of the same with no real enumerated plan to get better, and back patting, they voted for different, come what may. You know which minority group didn’t break right, Jews (+5% 3.5% being the margin of error).
After Donald Trump called every stripe of Latino, rapists and murderers, publicly, often and loudly, More Latinos voted for Donald Trump in this past election than have ever voted for any Republican candidate in any American election ever. Spin it any way you like.
enough people automatically buy into every coin created, a couple bucks here, a couple bucks there, hoping one will take off, that’s where this 50k bump earnings, and the millions in valuation comes from. kid invested $300 buying a stake in his own coin, he could’ve lost it. he didn’t.
