Apparently some Acme comedy bombs mailed to a number of extremely rich people, which thankfully did not hurt anybody at all, are infinitely more newsworthy than the real bombs which maim and destroy children in Yemen on an industrial scale.

Pretty much says it all, really.
Good lord, could your waste your fucking time on anything more inconsequential?
Here’s some words we should ban:
parsnips
turnips
catnips
This is why I want no part of the left’s bullshit, no more than I do that of the right. This is worse than useless. This harms women. Painting women as fucking fragile flowers who can’t for one moment withstand something that might in certain contexts be vaguely sexual is terrible, just incredibly bad, for women.
Why so many women want to portray themselves as shrinking violets of supreme fragility, I don’t have any idea. But it’s not doing anyone any favors.

I didn’t write about this on my blog that I recall, but I did talk with my partner about it several times and muttered about “Dumb motherfuckers who don’t know how companies operate” etc. (which she can confirm).
Tesla operates like how all extremely capital-intensive businesses work, and that is they borrow a whole lot of money for their production needs and then stop borrowing after that is ramped up. Tesla clearly had the business to support this. That was the whole point of pre-ordering, etc! In this case, Tesla’s revenue stream was more assured than GM, Ford, etc., because they usually don’t do pre-orders to any great degree. From this perspective, Tesla was a safer bet than other car companies because they had a fairly assured future revenue stream while GM et al. do not.
I hate that so much of the business press and general reporting of companies is by people who have not the first fucking clue how a company operates, what distinguishes different business enterprises, how to analyze a balance sheet or any of that. Most business reporting you read is utterly worthless. Truly.
Never owned any Tesla stock. Don’t plan to. I can’t predict anything about it and Musk is a loose cannon. But it was clear most of the financial critics of Tesla had no clue about anything.
I really need to eat more, but it’s very hard for me to do that now. My stomach just can’t hold what it used to. I am not gaining as much muscle and strength as I could be considering how hard I am working out.
On workout days, I am going to try to add another 500 calories of protein. We’ll see how that goes.
By the way, I don’t think the pipe bombs are part of a “false flag” operation. They are just poorly-made devices. It’s likely the person who constructed them thought they’d actually work, but they were just a moron.
