This might be a level up from 'n boer maak 'n plan, or not.

RIP David Lynch, incredible filmmaker and brilliant surreal visual artist, a guy who loved doing plumbing and carpentry throughout his life.

Lost Highway, Eraserhead, the Twin Peaks series and movie, Mulholland Drive, Wild at Heart, Blue Velvet, all truly exceptional.  Any favourites?

Far less of a lofty topic.

Talking of brooms, I think he'll start burning his enemies at the stake soon enough? Salem again?

I am more concerned about the scarlet pimpernel aka Elon musk.

Not just enemies.  Millions of his own supporters are being badly burned.  I'll not refer to politics at all.

Trump yesterday rescinded Biden's executive order to limit outrageous drug profiteering.  Just one example: 4 million Americans on medicare (not medical aid, they pay far more) were paying $35 for insulin under Biden.  Before that it cost many times more.

It's already in effect. There are videos of Trump voters now crying online with some saying they can no longer buy insulin for themselves and their parents. 

(edit:  All 3 pharmas supplying insulin have warned of enormous price increases to shortly be introduced for all USA users)

And then there are all those supporters who are seriously angry at Trump over his memecoins since the weekend.  Set up 2 memecoins, not even bitcoins.  Many call memecoins shitcoins.  Mostly American MAGAs put $56 billion into it, Trump pulled the rug.  They were strongly warned against it.  Some idiots lost their life savings, and the cryptobros are spitting mad at the illegality of it and how he will not be held accountable.

Financial analysts this morning state that within 2 days this grift now makes up 89% of his personal wealth.  Trump scammed some of his own, they're furious.

Ouch.

Aaaaaand she's disappeared...  Pretty sure she was fugazzied by the person who cooked it for her.  Probably hiding because of those threats calling for her to be killed, or from the potential of being arrested.

                                                                          

FWIW, I'll take the word of academics who teach crypto engineering and the business of it: Not credible as an investment tool.

Was thinking about crypto earlier and I guess any asset, currency etc is based on sentiment at that point in time and the value we believe it will hold , appreciate, depreciate etc. and this would hold true for anything really.
