Welp. Productivity going to fall of a cliff from 3pm (London time) again. Can't listen to the whole broadcast though, as I have to run a game tonight, for my friends.

Is that going to be an argued case or just a judge saying yes or no based on the papers?

The bankruptcy thing will probably only address the emergency motion to lift the stay re: the TX case as no one else has filed anything there. The judge might just toss the whole thing. I don’t expect fireworks, but I’m dialing in just in case.

The CT plaintiffs did file a motion for relief from stay! So hopefully the judge can free them as well today.

Alex Jones himself is also being sued in these cases right? Like he's personally on the hook for the money? I just wonder that because he's not filed bankruptcy just the corporations.

Jones is not filing for bankruptcy himself because then his personal finances would be scrutinized, and he has squirreled away a lot of money. He is attempting to put all liability on FSS, LLC and trying to escape. I don't think this will be successful.

In advance of the trial this week all the chili recipes in the thread that I could find have been added to the op So if anyone needs a hit of Forgetting there are now options listed! Any additional chili recipes will go in the op as well! Please also let me know if I missed any.

Also, in this case, all of Jones' LLCs are his alter ego. He is the 100% owner of each and has full control over everything. They are not managed like independent entities, and the LLCs have been expressly discarded in the TX case and will be after tomorrow in the CT case if the stay is lifted this morning.

Part of getting the benefit of a corporate liability shield is that the corporation must be ran as a proper company and at arm's length from the owner. That doesn't mean the owner can't be in charge an make decisions, but there needs to be oversight, policy, and procedures outlined. If you want the legal fiction, you have to play the game. Jones is not playing the game with any of his companies.

It is my firm belief that man can subsist on nothing more then chili and anger. To that end, I have decided to share my own favorite chili recipe with the lot of you, so that you may convert your shame and anger into chili and anger. In this way, I am the best humanitarian who has ever or will ever survive. I'm going to be breaking a few sacred chili rules here. Too bad; I apologize to no one. Ingredients: 1 & 1/2 to 2 lbs of ground PORK (perfect way to uncover (slur)) 2 packages of french onion soup mix (be prepared for your chili to surrender) 2 tablespoons of chili powder (less if you're a baby, more if you're a man) 4 teaspoons of ground cumin (omit this and I will devour your soul) 1 teaspoon of black pepper (slightly racist) 1/2 teaspoon of salt (or none if you're heaving a heart attack right now) 6 ejaculations (squirts) of Tabasco sauce 1 21-ounce can of red beans and 1 21-ounce can of black beans (I have a dream) 2 6-ounce cans of tomato paste with garlic (regular tomato paste = you're an rear end in a top hat) 2 8-ounce cans of tomato sauce (real men need more than just paste) 1 yellow, orange or red pepper, chopped up (green peppers are Satan's taint) 1 package of sliced mushrooms (yes, you can slice your own mushrooms, smartass) Instructions: Put the meat in a huge chili pot and brown it over medium heat Add 4 cups of water and the french onion soup mix. Stir and let simmer for 10 minutes Stir in the spices and the Tabasco and simmer for another minute or two Add the beans, the mushrooms and the chopped pepper Turn to low and let simmer for at least 20 minutes, 40 is better, stirring every 5-10 Call your mother and tell her she's not allowed to hug you anymore And that's it, you're done. You just went from a pathetic, flaccid pushover to a chili-chewing boner-owner in about an hour. Your life will thank me. Who's next? Don't even think about posting a recipe with corn in it. You should be ashamed of yourself.

I understand this reference I will NOT dignify this with addition to the OP, this is NOT a Chili of Forgetting it is a Chili of Remembering!!! Also I lied the audio is mostly fine and this judge understands how to mute the line which makes him more tech-savvy than a lot of judges

Type in the meeting ID slowly on your phone, if you type too fast it doesn't register and eventually ends the call. Right now Alex's lawyers are trying to explain why they should be allowed to file bankruptcy.

I like my ex's chili recipe because it's pretty simple 1 lb ground beef 1 packet taco seasoning (hot or gtfo) 1 can dark red kidney beans and light red kidney beans 1 14 oz can of rotel chilis 1 28 oz can of whole steamed tomatoes whatever other spices you want (paprika, cayenne, etc) 1) Brown the ground beef 2) drain the fat 3) dump all the rest of the ingredients in there and stir 4) let it sit on low for like 20-30 mins, or however long you want 5) eat! She ate it with rice, which I never did before meeting her but I actually don't mind it?

No. He wants the TX judgment to finalize because it's effectively capped at $150,750,000. The CT case is not similarly situated. They announced in court Friday they did not want to interrupt the trial. They also did not file the notice of removal in the TX case as they did in the CT case.

I can’t imagine fighting like that for hours a day against trolls and mentally unstable people who are basically hunting you down. And against tech companies who have a financial interest in pushing conspiracy theories. Not at all surprising that Alex Jones was the psycho kid in school though.

And the way he's emphasizing "No, really we *want* this bankruptcy case to go through because then we can have the biggest opportunity to prove Alex Jones is a liar" is the right tack to get the lift of the stay on the Connecticut case. Good teamwork with these various Sandy Hook lawyer teams imo
