Allen Christian @allenchristian.bsky.social · 21/05/2026The SpaceX prospectus is one of the funniest things I've ever read. They only lose money, and they lose a lot of it, the mission statements are full of sci-fi woo magic, and there's zero path to profitability. In a real economy, no one would invest in this. But people don't read and they're stupid. 000

Allen Christian @allenchristian.bsky.social · 15/05/2025I don't know anything about Sleep Token and I do not care, but metal has always been cheesy and implying that it had dignity, or that it needs intellectualizing or defense from the kinds of people who write for Pitchfork is goofier than whatever this band does. 010
Allen Christian @allenchristian.bsky.social · 21/04/2025Everyone is so puzzled about why Kristi Noem was carrying around $3k in cash when her purse was stolen, even though the answer is obvious: She wasn't. She has theft insurance and is committing low-level insurance fraud and that's the most she can claim without documentation. They're all just crooks. 020

That's my point! It's not that stupid! What is even the point of having slang if you're going to say boring-ass shit like "we're cooked"?! 000
Allen Christian @allenchristian.bsky.social · 10/04/2025Played that AI Quake 2 demo. It's transparently very bad and not worth messing with... So what are we doing?
