I know who the someone is…

Love the Crypto takedown. You and I have talked about this before. Now start investing in it so I can short it…whatever the hell “shorting it” means…

SBF’s creepy little crypto-wench is kind of fascinating. On the one hand, she may have actually been his first and only lay, and on the other hand she looks like every 22-year-old, pandemic-loving, mask-dependent, aspiring cat lady who likes to tell her one friend on the internet about how she “literally owns more cats and books than tea bags, if you can believe that tee-hee.” I guess there’s no real tension there, and maybe “fascinating” was overselling it. Ok, definitely overselling it. Oh well.

Fun read Virgil. SBF is Victor Lustig dressed up as Freddy Benson (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095031/).

The reason the super rich and powerful fall for these scams is they face tremendous conformity pressure. Can't question anything. Even if they suspected a scam, they can't say it if everyone else is falling for it. They're the best marks.

As for the gay thing, the Republican Party is just very, very, very stupid. Same can be said on the abortion issue. The Republicans could have taken all of the SC ruling by simply stating in unison that they don't support complete bans on abortion (because that's what 99.9% of Americans agree with). But they are too dumb to do that.
