  • From “Blackadder Goes Forth”

    Melchett: Now, I’ve compiled a list of those with security clearance, have you got it Darling?

    Darling: Yes sir.

    Melchett: Read it please.

    Darling: It’s top security sir, I think that’s all the Captain needs to know.

    Melchett: Nonsense! Let’s hear the list in full!

    Darling: Very well sir. “List of personnel cleared for mission Gainsborough, as dictated by General C. H. Melchett: You and me, Darling, obviously. Field Marshal Haig, Field Marshal Haig’s wife, all Field Marshal Haig’s wife’s friends, their families, their families’ servants, their families’ servants’ tennis partners, and some chap I bumped into the mess the other day called Bernard.”

    Melchett: So, it’s maximum security, is that clear?

    Blackadder: Quite so sir, only myself and the rest of the English speaking world is to know.




  • I followed Abramson from 2016 for 3+ years and I was disillusioned because as time went on, his narrative didn’t line up with reality. Yes Trump was and is a horrible piece of shit and much came out to confirm how much a piece of shit he was, e.g. Muller report, rape, fraud trials. But nothing like Abramson was saying. I believe that is because he was treating every rumor as fact and then expounding / extrapolating on it to heap another rumor (as fact) on top. Nobody should be doing this let alone a scholar who should know better - veracity matters.

    And to repeat - I truly hope Musk is having a miserable shitty life. I really hope he goes nuts and checks into a funny farm or uses razor blades to test if he is living in a simulation as he has wondered occasionally. I just don’t trust his “biographer” when he claims anything given his past record on such things.





  • A lot of people were fool enough to put money down for it. Preorders were massive, something like a million, and they were projecting a waiting list of years. But when it showed up for double the price, half the range, badly reviewed, widely ridiculed and a raft of extremely serious issues those preorders just evaporated. It went from a waiting list of years, to no list at all.

    Since the article mentions Canada I can only assume issues trying to sell this wankpanzer have only gotten worse since Musk went full Nazi. Imagine being a Canadian and buying any Tesla let alone this one. Countries where this thing is legal should be seriously looking at their vehicle safety laws.
