Are the residents called sandwiches?

I gained 2 followers from this. Or 200 X followers

Hahaha. Fuck you elon!

I’d take one follower on nostr over 100 on X

I’m so tired of Elons personal life

Nostr is like a breathe of fresh air

Reading about Hindutva from this book. Wow!

Elon is doing great at doge, just needs to have someone independent overseeing his contracts and needs proper guardrails to keep from abusing his lower

And he really should apologize for what he said over Christmas

Federal Corrupt Practices Act relates to businesses giving or taking bribes from foreign governments

There are some criticisms of it, and its not enforced fairly, but many CEOs of US companies were giving or taking bribes from the Indian or Chinese governments in exchange for favors both directions

Elon had serious legal exposure from the FCPA which Trump just rescinded via EO. He also made billions off of government contracts, which DOGE will not audit

Excuse me if I find this disingenuous:

I like James Lindsay. He’s a smart guy. Taught me a lot

But he botched the H1B issue. I thought there’s something to what he’s saying for awhile. I really don’t think there is

And here’s the kicker: he’s a smart guy. A really smart guy. Smart enough he wouldn’t fall for something like this. Leaves some less than savory options

To clarify: I don’t know anything, but I find it awfully suspicious that he’d screw up that issue

I appreciate what Elon is doing with DOGE. It will have a huge impact

But hearing him seamlessly jump back and forth from his DOGE government work to his companies shows an obvious conflict of interest. Is he in charge of auditing his OWN government contracts for waste, fraud and abuse?

Will he replace some of the wasteful contracts with contracts for Palantir and his other Silicon Valley buddies?

Yes, I know, the Bidens, the Clintons and the Bushes were all up to their eyeballs too. But we were promised the swamp would be drained, not replaced with Palantir!

You know, if Hamas returned the hostages and issued an apology for 10/7, Israel wouldn’t attack

I know the Gaza situation isn’t that simple but I’ve never heard an Israel hater mention this
