In related Elon news, Tesla stock has dropped nearly 10% today, 50% year to date. Nearly two years ago, same month, different date, people were crazed at the prospect of Tesla stock reaching a point very close to its now current price.

Tiny Timbs posted:I'm not entirely sure. The ones I know IRL aren't gay-bashers and do follow through by voting for bizarro 3rd party candidates but they also have jobs funded 100% by the American taxpayer so ideological consistency isn't their strong suit. The "groomer" narrative has worked on the few I know, more or less. Really gross to see.

Gutting public health means there's a great chance the US ends the way it began, with smallpox ripping through an immunologically naive population, now that orthopoxviruses are seen as a "gay" disease.

VSOKUL girl posted:remind me, did he launch the starlink "assistance" before or after he publicly announced his annoyance with bandwagon addition of ukrainian flags to social profiles God I hate to be that poster because I hate musk the person, but the starlink assistance was a brilliant marketing idea by not-elon. They shipped a bunch of recievers and turned on the geofence around Ukraine. Then people got on the bandwagon and bought more recievers and shipped them. To the point where thousands of terminals were sent. Now, six months later, Ukrainian forces have advanced past that original geofence and Elon is making a huff about how they've got 5000 dishes with accounts 6 months unpaid. Instead of taking it as a $15M marketing gimmick that sells them as a perfect buy for the DoD which ensures their business in perpetuity they are spiking that good will. I have no data to backup that it was one of the smart employees who started the Ukraine support and Elon who galaxy brained trying to collect a few million in revenue for a service whose marginal cost to starlink was free, but it is in line with $8

There is currently a $1.9 Billion Powerball jackpot. The drawing was supposed to be last night, but was delayed. They are citing "security concerns" and the fact that transactions from some states were still pending in the system, which I find pretty wild. I can't find when they are doing the drawing, but the next scheduled time is this Wednesday. https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/07/us/powerball-lottery-record-monday-trnd/index.html

The joke of capitalism is that this mind boggling amount of lottery winnings is only 1/16th of twitters annual loan repayments! 63 Million a year for 30 years. A lifetime of decadent wealth. Still not anywhere near enough to self-immolate on social media.

Looks like venture capital crypto is finally dying. FTX has no money and is about to be bought by Binance. https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1590013613586411520?t=NeDCKW2oaeq8ukPUxHGc0A&s=19 And presidential-level turnout at this precinct I'm working because of the ballot proposals and poo poo. Lots of analysts saying that based on turnout numbers that democratic voters are taking naps in VA and FL, so might be one of those nights. Also gonna turn out lol that Republicans got Roe killed and probably won't get hurt at the ballot box about it. Not to create a conversation about the reasons why - just sayin. Also if you're the type of person that gives poll workers a hard time (electoral or exotic) I hate you and hope you [REDACTED] quite strongly. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Nov 8, 2022 |

There's an outright abortion yes/no proposal on the ballot here, which may explain why I'm seeing far more young women, and lots of other semi-confused first time voters, than I've ever seen here. Could also just be happenstance as I'm at the main check-in position the whole day and the last election was a low-turnout primary. We have six hours to go and we're +100 on the August primary numbers. https://twitter.com/SarahMeyerNYC/status/1590038361653530624?t=kUOVzNVpD1Tw4CsCfsovYg&s=19
