not even 6 years in the industry and you become a CEO of a relatively high profile company?
????????????????
how does that work?
I'd check if he's related to someone that explains it

Bluesky, like many leftist things, is only a success at all because of what it's not.
Bluesky is not Twitter.
Biden was not Trump.
Obama was not Bush.
Hasan Piker is not Joe Rogan.
Impossible meat is not murder.
Green energy is not coal.
Canada is not America.
White trannies are not oppressors.

None of the above have anything to offer other than an "opt out" of the heckin problematic thing.

Bluesky just happened to be there when the left desperately needed not twitter.
 
  1. Her vision and pitch were decisive
    • Graber has said that she was chosen based on the vision she pitched for how Bluesky should be built — that is, not just management credentials but her conceptual plan for designing the protocol and app. The Verge+1
    • Her pitch evidently aligned with what Twitter’s leadership (especially Dorsey) wanted: a system that is open, federated, and less bound to centralized control. CNBC+2Fast Company+2

So I guess it was a fediverse thing and the troon was an early adopter of that so maybe that was part of it I guess.
I didn't even really realize that bluesky was fediverse stuff or whatever
 
The degree to which we shit on iraq, twice, really shocked the world.

My second favorite veteran story I was ever told was from the second Iraq war. Dude and his squad or whatever had been ordered to patrol a road between two bases in a "safe" area (this was at the beginning of the war before IEDs got set up). They just drove back and forth in a Humvee over and over again. Eventually they got very board and decided to have a little fun. They went off road and started jumping dunes. They took one too fast and got the Humvee stuck on the incline of the next dune. They got out of the Humvee, freaking out and trying to dig the vehicle out of the sand. They hear some rumbling coming their way and figure its a tank on the road. The rumbling gets closer and they realize from the sound its not on the road and its not a friendly tank.

So they are standing around the Humvee when a T-72, or whatever tank the Iraqis were using, crests the top of the dune. It completely stops with the main gun facing directly at them. They freeze and stare for a moment. Then the hatch opens up and an Iraqi dude pops up, wearing one of those classic "I Love NY" t-shirts, waving his arms and screaming "I surrender". They got the Iraqi's to drag the Humvee out of the sand. They returned to base with the tank and got awarded for "capturing an enemy vehicle".
 
After his H1b video?He is going to be classified as a racist right winger from now on
It's insane how fucking programmed these people are to follow outrage. Like they don't think critically about what they are mad about at all. They don't realize they are taking the side of the giant corporations they claim to be against when they support H1B. But they somehow just think, "you don't want a gorillian indians imported into the US as indentured servants? YOU MUST BE RACIST!". It's so obvious why people would be against the H1B visa's without it having anything to do with race even, that it makes my head hurt to even try to come to the same conclusions they do. The NPC thing is played out. But it's like literal NPC programming.

My views on the shutdown are complicated. The democrats are jerks for shutting down the government over health care for illegals Mexicans. However Trump is a hero for shutting down the government and stopping all that wasteful spending. I guess that is just the duality of man.
If nothing else, it's impressive how Trump gets the Dems to show their asses with the smallest things. For one, cheering on assassinations is kosher. You can fan the flames, tell your attack dogs that everyone that disagrees with you is the spawn of Satan for 10+ years and it's fine. All good, no one in his right mind would have a problem with that. Why, sponsors shouldn't pull a talk show host for lying about an assassination (which is a crime by the way). That's against freedom of speech! But make make silly videos with the Dems in sombreros, and all of a sudden it's RACIST. VULGAR. BEYOND THE PALE. It goes to show how unhinged Trump is. It's all so dangerous!
 
Nevermind.

The fun thing is watching Newsome's twtter. Holy shit is he a fucking sperg.

It really does show that the Left can't meme.
 
Just to be clear. He seems to be asking Trump for help, not telling people to help Trump. Other than that it just seems like an average day in Los Angeles.

Main theory is that he's a veteran who's Healthcare went offline with the government shutdown.
VA healthcare does not go down during a shutdown...ever. Now run of the mill VA incompetence, malpractice, giving vets a 2nd chance to die for their country...that happens 24/7 365 days a year, regardless of who's in power and whether the elected/unelected leeches are (spending their 15 mins of pushing papers around to say theyre working 8 hours) or they arent.
Sad thing I might be acquainted with them if they're a vet since I talk to alot of vets who are in a similar situation to mine (and can not get ANYONE to help. Luckily I was able to get some help but only after being hospitalized 4 times in 6 months and the last 3 being within a month and a half of each other. Sad thing the VA isnt taking care of my service connected conditions. Medicare/medicaid are since the VA doesnt "trust" diagnosis of docs outside the VA or community care system. Mostly because of the cost of my treatments the VA doesnt want to pay. Next sad thing, vets usually have no recourse (the VA laughs at congressional/senatorial inquiries, doesn't answer them, or straight lies to them), vets technically can file a tort claim against the VA for malpractice etc, but no lawyers will take the cases unless the vet is dead or it is blatant, obviously a slam dunk easy case. I expect there will be more of these or vets setting self deleting in VA parking lots for a while as it has been happening for decades.

But hey with Trump downsizing the federal workforce and "won't anyone think of the veterans", veteran health care is going to get worse.

how does that work?
The same way graduates become senior real estate analysts directly out of school despite having no life experience and having never analyzed anything before.
 
Watching Seattle and Portland, the toxic twins of the PNW, I can only determine that Narcan was a mistake.
The mistake was treating it as a last ditch 'cure' and not a mandate. Saving people during an OD is a weak use of it, the proper solution is patrolling units of dudes with man catching restraints and bandoleers of the shit. If you are fent zombie'd out in public, you're restrained and your lovely high gets blasted away with the most miserable of crashes, as Narcan tends to do. If they get physically violent in response, shoot them - they're too far gone. These people want to bliss out at everyone elses expense, and god came down and gave us the perfect tool to take that away from them. Its functionally perfectly safe, you can't give someone a lethal dose of it or administer it wrong in such a way as to cause harm. If they are an addict and high, the degree of suffering they experience is directly proportional to both how much of an addict they are, and how high they are. Early addicts get an annoying kick in the pants as a functional warning shot, and the blitzed guys will probably wish the officer had just shot them. Its a punishment perfectly in alignment with the severity of their fuckery, without being susceptible to manipulation by bad actors. And atop all that, its dirt cheap, around twenty bucks a pop. It costs an order of magnitude more in man hours just to file the paperwork to throw one of them in a drunk tank to detox naturally.

Its practically fates judgement in a spray applicator, and the fact we lack the balls to apply it as such is a great shame.
 
I guess this is USPG related since a lot of le resistance has taken to basing their whole internet existence there so have some funny crashing out. The CEO Jay Graber (Troon) apparently got tired of being asked when he was going to ban Jesse Singal. So he’s been replying to such posts berating him over it by talking about waffles.

Bluesky users, which have already been on a decline since like July especially after the platform said artists who create nonconsensual content even if fictional are not welcome, are really butthurt!
