Since when is piracy bad?

There shouldn’t be “relatively affordable housing on Florida’s coastline.” That ship has sailed. The state is going to flood and get battered by hurricanes until it’s completely subsumed by the ocean. They’ve had half a century to get their shit together and reverse global warming. Florida should no longer qualify for any other federal aid. Surrender that shit to Poseidon.

Pffft. Next up, FDA declines to approve aspirin for headaches. Give me a break. The whole rent-seeking bureaucracy around American medicine is ridiculous.

These are billionaire CEOs, not artists. There’s nothing particularly mysterious about their work, which you can learn all about from the many, many self-fellating autobiographies their ghost writers churn out every year.

Exactly. There’s plenty of salad available, but that’s not what I choose. What is this fantasy that it’s expensive to eat healthy? Legumes are literally 1/1000th the cost of beef per calorie. Yet people choose meat, because it’s delicious. Then they die of chronic illness. Instead of making fun of ourselves for being totally predictable dumb apes, we write these ridiculous articles.

I can't imagine how hard it must be to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.

To be fair, not at all. Someone in her position would be making broad decisions, such as “should we have a downvote button,” and spending her time courting advertisers and handling the whiny board of directors, who are mostly geriatric babies.

I would’ve bought a Tesla years ago, if it weren’t for that piece of shit.

As a cohort, the American gerontocracy is uniquely shitty. You almost have to admire the boomers’ tenacity to destroy everything before they die.

Violent criminals are a fairly small fraction of total inmates, and a whopping 76% of the Texas jail population hasn’t even been convicted of a crime.

Also, Texas loves rapists and most of them aren’t in prison anyway. Not to mention Abbott just pardoned that convicted homicidal murderer.

To be fair, being smart is famously correlated with getting hit in the head for a living.

I don’t think that’s quite right, because there’s no instruction associated with spreading lies about someone. You don’t have to say “you should attack this person based on this [random lie]” to be guilty of libel. The lie itself causes the bad consequences that now make you guilty.
