when given to healthy volunteers, the drug induced paranoia, perceptual changes and a wide range of other symptoms including disorganisation of thought, negativism, apathy, withdrawal, poverty of speech, perseveration and catatonic posturing.
I dunno, this sounds like most of the CEOs I've interacted with personally.
You leave Visual Basic alone!
I used to work at a big cable company whose name rhymes with bombast. One day I (M) found myself in a meeting with a bunch of female vice-presidents (Bombast has thousands of vice-presidents). The presenter couldn't get her laptop to connect to the big TV so I pulled out one of my gadgets and got her set up. She said "wow, you're pretty handy to have around." My brain decided that it would be a clever thing indeed to say "well, I'm pretty well-endowed in the dongle department" but when I started to say it my brain realized how completely insane a comment it was. So my brain cut me off and I ended up just saying "well, I'm pretty well-endowed" which was not exactly any better.
To their credit everybody ignored this except for one woman who actually guffawed briefly. I wasn't fired immediately so there's that.
I've had many coworkers over the years who made their greatest contributions to the company by doing nothing. In programming, the amount of damage some people can do by actually doing stuff is almost inconceivable.
Edit: I had one programmer colleague whose code fired a 125 mph knuckleball a foot above a ten-year-old kid's head. I had to physically intervene to prevent a fistfight between my boss and the client, certainly the only time that even happened to me.
For decades the GOP has aimed its rhetoric at people with a fifth grade education. Trump's political innovation was to target third grade education. His ethical innovation was to target literal third graders.
You can't finish a life sentence. Oh wait ...
My preparer randomly told me that he had invested money with a guy who was developing a "reactionless space drive". He then mentioned that the guy had solved all the problems he was having with it by asking ChatGPT about it. I asked him if the guy had a working prototype yet and he said no but it was sure to work.
Time to find a new tax preparer.
"31% is at least still a positive number".
Are conservatives supposed to lick soldiers' bare feet?
He's the CEO of five companies. If he really works 100 hours a week like he says (and maybe ketamine does make that possible), that means being a CEO is at best a part-time job.
"A soldier needs two things: a full belly and a pair of shoes." -some dude named Napoleon. I was going to put "an army marches on its stomach" but that was apparently Frederick the Great, even earlier than Napoleon. War has always been mostly about logistics.
Fun Napoleon fact: the three main protagonist generals (Napoleon, Wellington and Blucher) at the Battle of Waterloo all designed shoes (or had shoes named after them). Only Wellingtons and Bluchers are still really around today - history is written by the winners, after all.
