Random Funny Cute Things

Here’s part of Disney’s statement…

Yes. They’re excusing a breach of contract over the pandemic. Oh. So righteous.

And because context is everything…

Some say Johansson made a dick move because Disney is “the hands that feeds her”. I wonder if they’d say the same thing if this was Tom Cruise or Robert Downey Jr or some MAN of the likes.

Last, but not least:

I say: good for her. Go after the mouse. Let it all burn if you have to.

Adverbs/Adjectives

*stares off into space for a second*

Crypto is unregulated and unstable, because it is unregulated and unstable it is highly subject to pump and dump schemes and just general market fluctuation. Bitcoin can plummet if someone with a lot of bitcoin chooses to spend some. Doge is literally a joke and is going to inflate and burst and inflate and burst just like bitcoin has in the last few years.

If you have any crypto that you are thinking of as an “investment” my recommendation is to divest now and put that money into a CD or a savings account or just under your fucking mattress because there is absolutely no way to guarantee that it is going to hold its value and it’s actually much more likely to lose value during the lifetime of your “investment.”

I mentioned recently that my coworker is part of a dogecoin reddit group; this is a dedicated group of people who invested low and who are trying to get normies spun up about the coin so that the price will inflate and they can bail before the crash. There are literally people who have made a job out of suckering people into “investing” in cryptocurrency so they can leave those people holding the bag.

This isn’t illegal because it’s not a regulated market.

DaoC lays out some complicated economics in an amusing discussion. People sometimes ask me “How does cryptocurrency” work and my answer is “it doesn’t” but a more serious answer is “A few hundred years ago the Netherlands got obsessed with buying flowers and paying high prices for flowers even though they were just flowers and didn’t have any material value other than being flowers and it led to a market collapse because one day people woke up and went “Wait why am I paying tens of thousands of money for a flower” and suddenly a bunch of people were holding worthless flowers that they’d paid ridiculous amounts of money for. Cryptocurrencies are tulips.”

But if you want that explained in more detail you should listen to the episode because it is good and it is fun.
