I also found out that way
was such a funny thing to see
idk why they even have a firetruck there, he should be up in LA helping fight the Cali fires
I'd assume so
I think Trump and Joe Biden having an agreement that Biden can be president, but he has to dress and pretend to be trump would be a good plot

the Community Note is funny
question though
if Trump deletes this tweet when he gets the account on Monday, does he get impeached again?

this is surreal to read
I think the FTC just actually got filtered
they're unequivocally wrong with half of what they say
about Hoyo not publishing % drop rates
and being confused about how rate-ups and pitty work
I think this is the only part, that even sort of has a point
and the idea of legislating how many intermediate currencies a game can have is kind of funny to think about
The thing people always yell at Elon about being treason, the "influencing other countries and acting on behalf of the US unofficially" has a weird history
Teddy Roosevelt was the first* president (potentially McKinley before him) in the 1890s/1900s that made that a thing sort of
and he essentially just required that privateers/filibusters/mercenaries submit their intentions to the federal government and be advised if they conflicted with other Americans' shit abroad
mostly related to raiding in Mexico & S.America
T.Roosevelt did that himself pre-presidency with his rough rider mercs, and was mostly trying to organize American influence abroad, at a time when we were leaning more isolationist outside of the Americas
There wasn't really a negative sentiment towards personal interventionalism until the red scare and anti-communism shit kicked off in the 1940s/50s
and that was mostly because the US government was SO BIG after WW2 and there were a glut of beuracrats trying to flex their power
