You are missing the point. Hancock is constructing a narrative in service of a racist trope that far pre dates him. The idea that the browns couldn't possibly have made this stuff is the genesis of much of the lost ancient civilization horseshit.
There are a lot of folks who have never lived anywhere else that will shit talk this town, but there are an equal number who left and came back that will tell you how much better it is here than a lot of places.
It's a performance contract from 2018. Teslas stock value massively increased from then and thus he qualified for the large contract payout. Note he did not get salary during this time, and if stock value had not increased he would have received little. I expect the payout was generous due to the risk and term of no salary.
The "not get a salary " is a tax dodge. C suite oligarchs get paid in stock options so they can purchase and sell stock as their reimbursement. It is purely to avoid payroll tax. Pay is taxed at a much higher rate than capital gains. Stock options allow a C suite exec to buy stock at a below market price and sell it for profit. The tax rate is on those profits is only 15% regardless of the amount where as income is taxed progressively.
Hard to pinpoint one event but I would say a candidate could be the Tunguska Event of 1908. This incident involved a massive explosion in Siberia, believed to be caused by the airburst of a comet or meteoroid. It flattened an estimated 80 million trees over 2,150 square kilometers, yet incredibly, it caused no confirmed human fatalities. The event’s cause remained mysterious for decades, fueling various scientific and fantastical theories, making it a prime candidate for one of the most surreal events in human history due to its scale, mystery, and the dramatic visuals it must have produced.
Also they still find live ordnance and bombs in Germany and France leftover from WW1 and WW2 to this day, it's estimated to take hundreds of years for it all to be cleaned up or become inert
Trees grow from the tips. They don't push things up. It is likely that the wire was hung in the trees to protect it from being accidentally cut on the ground
People keep flooding into this sub asking different versions of the same question: "Ok, if Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan are as bad as you say, who SHOULD be my role model then?"
I don't know if it is that they idolize these chuds as much as the chuds justify their sense of grevience. The actual reasons these man-boys aren't living the lives they expected are complex. The chuds make it simple and point out an enemy. What they are really asking is how do I know who to hate for my perceived slights if not for these guys.
Common Sense Skeptic does breakdowns of Elon's public talks. They say up front that they remove the stuttering and pauses to make Elon more coherent. Anyone listening to Elon talk extemporaneously can tell you that Dittmann isn't Musk. Hel isn't as stuttery and confused as Elon talking off the cuff. Musk is an idiot. He can't answer tough questions in real time.
I think this was inevitable. Candice was skulking around the edges of full blown antisemitism. Ben, I wear my faith like it is armor against GOP bigotry, Shapiro was bound to have his fill of that shit eventually.
'The Difference Engine's is a steam punk novel co written by William Gibson. In the middle of the novel, there is a weird scene where the main character engages in a night of debauchery with a prostitute. It is out of character for the rest of the novel and it is jarring.
If your tiers are also ordered from best to last, I generally agree with S tier. I would add some but I would place Henning behind Greg and James. I belongs on the tier, but I don't think his is ahead of those guys.
I have worked at the same place for twenty years. I have never made a single friend at work. There are people I like there, but I don't want to see them outside of work and I don't want to talk about work when I am not at work. I am not missing out.
It's not sirloin. It's typically a terrible, tough cut of meat like eye of round run through a cuber so it is edible. I don't know if you have 'cube steak' in Australia, but it is meat that is too tough to eat unless stewed forever run through a machine that makes a lot of small cuts in it to make it edible without ruining your jaw muscles. It is flattened in the process. You can also do it with a meat tenderizing hammer but that's pretty uncommon these days.
He is going to have to make an example out of someone by destroying their campaign. Then everyone will fall in line
According to a recent study, the best way for him to destroy their campaign is to endorse them
The one where he suggests to Rogan that the EU did 9/11
Mine is intermittent. Some times it sounds like a fan bearing squealing. More frequently it is a clicking noise.

But it does in this case? He pushes narratives to disprove that non whites were more advanced than previously believed

In Elon' defense, it takes a lot of money to keep exploding rockets.
The Latin root of 'turbo' is the word turbo. The Latin word means spinning.

No cop is going to show up because it isn't a crime, it's a code violation.

Drudge was just news aggregator with a right wing bent. Epoch Times is full on Alex Jones Conspiracy nuttery that is Nazi adjacent.

Miles Jupp needs to be bumped up a tier or two.
I'd put him in at least A.

Wait...a sirloin? Like an actual sirloin steak? Am I misunderstanding? Why is it called Chicken Fried Steak?

The short answer is yes, FSS is on the table.
They offered him a sweetheart deal late last year. He refused. Jones chose liquidation
I thought the most recent interaction was HIS payoff proposal? I can’t seem to find anyone whose done a decent timeline article lol
He replied to their offer by offering $55M. They didn't like the counter offer. He should have taken the $85M. Now he is going to lose his business.
Haven't seen Winkleman in a while. I always enjoy her appearances.
