If I’d had to bet whether this was The Onion before clicking this link, someone would be breaking my knees next week.

This timeline is absurd.

People really do end up with the face they deserve.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 minutes ago

No, his is far too unbruised, his nose isn't broken, and he appears to have all of his teeth.

Oh the irony

I had an uncle that had a problem with leaking. Ended up just having to wear a diaper everywhere.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 20 minutes ago

Your uncle is Donald Trump?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

If he had the right plumbing then a zip tie would have also worked.

Everything this dipshit says should be on Facebook

“There are a bunch of things that I think are value-destroying for me to talk about, so I’m not going to talk about those…”

Well have you thought about not being a piece of shit 😂

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 hours ago

Like, isn't that an admission that your business has no value?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 5 hours ago

Now that's an amazing headline.

[–] [email protected] 68 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Imagine being worth 229 billion, and you look like that.

This realities Bond villains are so pathetic looking.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 minutes ago

He's no Hank Scorpio, I'll tell you that.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Drugs and lack of sleep does that to you.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 hours ago

Drugs and sleep have no effect on cyborgs

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

he could at least find a better haircut than pube fro.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

It's an improvement over his last haircut. He looks like he actually goes outside sometimes now, too.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

He was going for Roman Emperor with the last one, but he neglected to consider the shape of his head. I really don't know what haircut would look good with his strangely shaped face/head.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

This look feels like the opening sequences of Dazed & Confused.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I have the same hair and it's fucking impossible

It dries and frizzes immediately. If you don't have time to care for it daily, it inevitably looks like this.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

this isn't some schmoe like you or me, he's a billionaire. he can afford a daily stylist, or at least before conference calls.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

It's ok not to spend time and money on looks. No matter how much money you have. There's no obligation to look good for anyone. The way he looks is not the problem with him.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

of course it’s not “the” problem with him, we are clearly circlejerking here.

and i’d say as the founder/ceo/face of a company you do owe it to the company, including the employees, to look presentable.

"I don't like it when people find out what I really think"

[–] [email protected] 103 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Seriously. If everything I said leaked to billions of people, I'd be a comedic phenomenon, a trendsetter, and a terrorist.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

a terrorist.

and remember folks... there was a time when boomers thought that the Patriot Act was for scary Muslim extremism...

welcome to 2025 where a middle age cuck is getting put on lists for voicing an opinion online.

That's what it feels like when you steal other people's personal information ..

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 hours ago

If only that feeling could be cranked up for him x 3 billion.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

To be fair, if it's personal and you don't want it out there, don't put it on anything on the internet.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 hours ago

Meta goes far beyond simply scraping data you consciously send to them.

Is that dude turning orange?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 6 hours ago

Symptom of fascism

[–] [email protected] 128 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

No he had his face stuck to Trump ass and some it transferred to Zuck.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 hours ago

Considering trumps orange is sprayon.....that tracks.

I'm a pacifist hippy tech worker, and I would gladly draw a paycheck from Raytheon long before I even consider applying to Facebook or Twitter.

Raytheon is putting "more value into the world" than these shitheads.

"Would you like your evil done in the traditional overt bombs-dropped-on-children fashion, or the new we'll-sell-your-entire-life-to-the-highest-bidder-while-feeding-you-non-stop-lies-to-establish-a-fascist-regime style, sir?"

This guy: Bomb some kids, at least it's a spectacle.

(Edit for clarification: I think both are bad, and one has a strong causal relationship with the other but I am not sure I would pick Raytheon personally. It's a bit too overtly evil for my tastes)

At least they are environmentally conscious, unlike Facebook

[–] [email protected] 2 points 41 minutes ago (1 children)

I refuse to believe that tweet is real on principal, but it's just tone deaf enough to have me question whether this might have actually been shat out by a corporate marketing team as part of some greenwashing effort.

If this is someone memeing however: Kudos, this one is very convincing despite being wildly ridiculous.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 30 minutes ago

It is satire, but they have a tweet on a environmentally friendly radar searchable on Google and a https://rtx.com/our-responsibility/sustainable-operations page so even if fake, it's not that far-fetched

[–] [email protected] 74 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

One way to avoid recurrent leaks is to foster a culture of trust and not be a ginormous dickwad.

zuck the fuck is worth approx 229billion.

a 25mil fine is 0.01% of his net worth.

If your average yearly salary is 30,000, thats like paying a fine of 3 ~~00~~.

edit math hard thank you @[email protected]

ZuckFuck doesn't make his net worth each year. So let's compare it against US citizen net worth. I have stats from 2022

Average American new worth is ~$1,050,000 Median American net worth is ~$192,000

I hate zuck as much as you but it's important to be accurate and fair as possible when comparing statistics.

So it's like a fine of $19 if using median and $105 if using average. Still peanuts for a fine

One cool thing about these leaks is: if you weren't saying batshit crazy stuff, no one would care.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 hours ago

Zuckerburg says "Today I ate a sandwich!"

Nobody cares.

But wait......the full quote was "Today I ate a sandwich......of babys!"

Nothing to hide nothing to fear wasn’t it?
