  • Yes, and that's another reason the company is failing, and I won't buy a car from them. But, that's not the point here, the point is Musk's stupid antics are having major consequences for him. The only value he's had for the company for years is as a mascot. The company succeeded so far as it has in spite of Musk, not because of him. Same for SpaceX.

  • I'm not excusing the behavior, nor do I do this. I am saying it's not nearly as ubiquitous as the author tries to make it seem. She's biased because it happened to her, and of course she would be. But, don't look at her claims as some sort of careful study.

    It's not all men, it's not anywhere close to a majority. "There are forums with millions of members on mainstream sites..." still doesn't constitute a huge percentage of men. And, I'm sure only a small percentage of those are sharing original pictures. She has way overstated the problem.

  • I had a 30" one in my bedroom for years, long after I'd stopped using it, because I didn't want to move it. Finally, about a year ago, I got it out onto the driveway for recycling to pick up. I figured if I waited too much longer, I'd be too old to lift it.

  • $17 for a burger, even if it really did look like the picture, which we all know it doesn't, is way too much. No, thank you.

    I pay $12/day to feed myself. I make all of my own meals at home, I haven't eaten out since the pandemic. I formed the habit, and just kept cooking at home as prices got ridiculous. My diet is excellent, mostly fresh vegetables, and organic chicken.

  • When a casual acquaintance asks my political leaning, I say Democrat to keep things simple. But, really, I'm a Bernie guy. I don't want to talk politics, and trying to explain that Democrats are actually center-right is just too much effort to put into... well, just about everyone nowadays.

  • If she did, she was cornered into this. Driven to it, explicitly. It was not an organic outcome of a series of tragic events, she was corralled.

    Or, maybe she didn't do it any more than Epstein did.

    We'll never know.
