For once in my life, I want musk to say more.
For me it's not about TikTok. It's about using whatever flimsy, poorly worded law they will make to ban a platform I don't use to open the door for further bans and possible censorship in the future. A platform should be allowed to function if it can. If it's horribly made, or supremely unprofitable it'll find its own way out. I don't use it, I don't plan on ever using it, and honestly it doesn't affect my daily life outside of my mother in law thinking that some of the pallet crafts on there are worthwhile and me having to explain that they'll look good for a moment and then fall apart rather quickly.
Coskiis' stance on pronouns is very simple. Coskii will respect anyones pronouns up until those pronouns are more complicated than a beings name. At which point Coskii uses the beings name instead of any pronouns. Pronouns are meant to be a conversational shortcut. If a shortcut is not being made, Coskii does not feel the need to use pronouns.
Neopronouns are (generally) not more complicated than a beings name. Exceptions do exist.
Writing a message without using pronouns for explicit understanding of how and why pronouns exist in English in the first place, including personal pronouns, is certainly a mood. The flow of sentences is somewhere between legal and caveman. Not using pronouns leaves no wiggle room for any interpretation on the subject being discussed, however the lack of personal pronouns means Coskii must always refer to Coskii as Coskii. Thank goodness Coskii is not a terribly long name.
I hated pictures like this in school. The numbers are just slapped on an inaccurate image and somehow they expect people to ignore the obvious right triangles and just focus on the math part of it.
That's not how any of this works.
Fuck them and fuck anyone who thinks this makes sense. Paying for energy you don't use because 'boo-hoo company profits' is probably the most blatant late stage capitalism bullshit I've seen all month, and probably up there with a handful for the year.
Even my company work van is only like.. 15ft long.. and it can fit basically anything I'd ever need to use for construction related needs.
So you're telling me that either Mike Johnson has a wad under his mattress, or is somehow the most based cryptobro in politics? Someone should.... investigate.... this.
But how many gold bars has she had sewn into her work attire?
The shocking part of this is the up to 15k in a 401k after 5 years. Like.. That's surprisingly low.
You are a multimillionaire that has plenty of options on leaving if things get rough, but in the interim you can look forward to tax breaks and more lax controls/protections over whatever industry you may be involved in.
As for the rest of them, he's flying the right colored flag and that's about it.
I thought I was a straight man once. Ended up being not the case.
Uhh.. Soy.. Soy sauce.

I'll take a stab at it.
There are no known owl species that naturally grow up to 16 pounds. The rest of the numbers are just as meaningless.
If you wanted to check what it would take for a random owl species to migrate across the ocean from europe to north america, that's something we can kind of check.
After a bit of lookup, it seems that the burrowing owl needs about 50-75 calories a day at rest to live, flight multiplies those calories by a factor of roughly 9.2 times. (I'mma round up to 10 because fuck it.) So 500-750 a day of pure flight at a speed of somewhere between 2 and 33 mph. I'm going to settle at 20 because I like easy numbers and I feel like it's not too crazy fast. So 20 miles per hour across 24 hours gets us a distance of 480 miles. Iceland and Scotland are 500 miles away. Assuming any of these assumptions are at all fair, it seems like an owl hellbent on crossing the ocean could manage to do it with laser guidance in less than two days without access to ground based food.
