Thanks for this thread, y’all. It’s a really good palate cleanser after mainlining nihilism all week. That and a few frosty ones makes Friday night p. cool.

Hooray good to hear!

This is literally the only news thread I checked all week because I was busy on a trip, and I actually missed all the week's nihilism for once. I don't even know how that knowledge could have helped me, and I'm not regretting the ignorant bliss and feeling fine about it the last few days at all. I had real life to worry about instead.

Give it a try! Social media is cancer y'all, even if good people (goons) are there! Take a break and peace out of all threads for political awareness for a while. Not every day in the Trump thread is Sam Nunberg day --- even though we always hope it is when we first log on for the day.

Try not checking it until you know for a fact that it's one of those days. You can check here where it's safe first to find out. You won't have to miss the mattering or any major lols because someone else will copy paste them here for you (right????). If it's something funny enough to be worth resuming fully catching up on the news, you'll know. Otherwise, stop chasing that dragon, it will find you if it's really time but otherwise try just leaving it out of your day.

Thanks for this, I was gonna post a pic of my dumb cat, but I’m an old and can’t for the life of me figure out how to paste in the url from imgur and make it show the thumbnail.

Here’s the hotlink, fwiw. He’s a cute youngster that hasn’t figured out any of the cat stuff other than “I’m too big for this space and I don’t give a gently caress,” and drawing blood from unsuspecting hands, but he’s my dumdum.

Once you drag your file onto imgur or otherwise send it to it and your picture shows up, hover over the top right corner of the picture where there's a little down arrow, and hit "get share links" and lastly click on the one under the label "BBCode (Forums). I dunno why it's so well hidden or who they expect to find this, but you pretty much have to know it through word of mouth. Also if you didn't post it yourself this arrow doesn't even show up so you can't hotlink it without re-uploading??? The more you know

Anyway that is a great catte

Good job plopping, cat

I dunno, this feels like “privileged person dismisses abuse and result is just people saying mean things in tweets and articles she’ll never see”. it’s not like people are going to stop inviting her to parties or providing services to her.

Tesla update

Lote posted:

The stock is in free fall this AM. Some analyst downgrades it and the SEC is so confident in their case that they’re passing on asking for a court hearing. It’s down 3% and a straight line down in the pre market trading.

Get yo popcorn ready

Shifty Pony posted:

SEC filed a very brief reply which can be summed up as saying:

- no additional hearing is needed because no facts are in dispute, only the interpretation of the court order

- if the meaning of the language in an order is clear, it isn't proper to consider settlement communications to muddy up that meaning.

- Musk's lawyers left out a bunch of settlement communications relating to that clause, so if you do want to consider settlement communications let us know and we'll give you copies.

so that should be the end of the back and forth poo poo. who knows when the judge will rule.

FistEnergy posted:

Now Tesla has until the end of tomorrow to request an evidentiary hearing, which they won't do because it would put Musk on the stand. After tomorrow's deadline, the ruling and punishment could come at any time.

Also, the biggest drug market, which has operated continuously for 6 years, is calling it quits and allowing everyone time to finish transactions and withdraw their coins without an exit scam...

... which might actually indicate that it's finally been compromised. the announcement wasn't signed, which is unusual, so people are speculating that the FBI is going to try to track big withdrawls, and may have compromised the anointed successor
