Yep. They did that.

Wondering where all the Bezos hate is on Twitter given the New Glen tactical nuke test yesterday. We saw lots of commentary at Musk about how he wasn't an engineer and should be funding world hunger instead of rockets. Odd how quiet those rocket scientists are today.

Anchors away! ⚓ Corsair Cove will release on July 31, 2026. But if you want to start polishing your pirate engineering skills early, the demo is available RIGHT NOW on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/1…

Well, it's official now. After the launcher leak of a new Witcher 3 expansion, CD Projekt RED officially announces "Songs of the Past" a true expansion and not just a DLC.

On the evening of May 23, Daniel C. Green created an image that created a ripple effect across the internet—and possibly the American patriotic landscape as we know it. In response to a post online requesting an image portraying Lewis and Clark in the style of J.R.R. Tolkien's Amoranth (as popularized by the early 2000s movies). Before doing so, Green researched what it would take to make such a monument and how to make the design correctly. He then fed a detailed prompt into an AI model and shared his photo response. Little did he know the reaction that the public would have to this photo. Over a span of 24 hours, the post amassed hundreds, thousands, and ultimately millions of views, creating a bipartisan fervor for the concept: Two 300-foot-tall copper statues of Lewis and Clark along the Missouri River in Montana, hollowed on the inside for defense, tourism, the private sector, research, libraries, or a multitude of other purposes. The idea spread rapidly, drawing people wanting to put money towards the project, debating on the best way to do it, and questioning why America no longer raises such emaculate, megalithic monuments to the American past any longer. Upon reading dozens—and then hundreds, to thousands—of these responses, many from notable figures, Green began to ponder if there was a legitimate tailwind behind this conceptual project. Early on Monday morning, Green learned that multiple people of note had taken an interest in this concept, requesting that the project actually be started. These included a political reporter with a multi-million-person following, the CEO of the American Conservation Coalition, and Senator Eric Schmitt (who publicly endorsed the idea). The idea was further popularized by a notable foundry in France—Atelier Missor. All of these factors combined caused Green to start floating an idea—that he could personally spearhead the project. This idea gained instantaneous popularity to the extent that, within hours, he had been connected with famous monument makers, connected with hundreds of potential donors and contributors, and witnessed the idea spread like wildfire. Progress has happened rather quickly. Green has created a landing page for this project, directing people to follow the page closely as he secures a 501(c)(3) sponsor to begin taking donations for the project. These donations will fund an artistic rendering, a small clay model that will be reproduced through a 3D company run by a supporter of the project, a 10-foot scale model of the statue, surveying of the land, and ultimately funding the construction of the megalithic statue. This is a massive undertaking from Daniel C. Green, his company, The Eagle Eye, and the undertaking to preserve America's past for the future.

Allow me to translate this letter from eBay for those who don’t speak legalese: Ryan, We got your unsolicited offer to buy eBay for $125/share (half cash, half stock) supported by your 5% economic interest in eBay. Our board, backed by the usual crew of bankers and lawyers who get paid either way, “thoroughly reviewed” it. We’re rejecting it. Not because the math doesn’t work. Not because the highly confident letter from TD Securities for up to $20B on top of your $9B cash pile is fake. None of that. We’re rejecting it because your entire approach to running a company is an existential threat to how we like to operate here. Here are the reasons we feel this way, and the things we considered before paying consultants to write this: 1) We’d rather keep milking eBay as a “standalone” cash cow than let you turn it into something bigger and better. 2) Sure, you’ve got real financing lined up and you “know people” with deep pockets, but we’re going to call it “uncertain” anyway so we don’t have to engage. 3) Your plan would actually force real long-term growth and profitability changes we’d rather not be held accountable for. 4) The debt we pretended you can’t even obtain, the operational integration and focus on seller satisfaction, and most importantly, putting someone like you in charge of the combined entity all sound like a nightmare for our current leadership structure because all of us would have zero job security. 5) The valuation math only looks bad if you ignore the 46% premium you’re offering our shareholders and the upside from fixing eBay the way you fixed GameStop, which we are choosing to do and hoping nobody notices. 6) And I hope we buried the lede far enough here: Your governance and executive incentives are completely incompatible with ours. You and your board take zero cash, no salary, no bonuses, no golden parachutes. You buy shares with your own money and only get paid if shareholders win. We, on the other hand, like our nice, reliable annual payouts regardless of whether the stock is flat or the company is just coasting. We’re not about to hand over our golden goose to a guy who eats only what he kills. Look, eBay is “strong” and “resilient” in the way every entrenched public company says it is while handing out eight-figure checks and perks to the C-suite. We’ve done the usual incremental stuff: tweaked the marketplace a bit, returned some capital, and we’d like to keep doing that without any cowboy from GameStop coming in and demanding actual skin-in-the-game accountability. Can you just leave us alone? Our team remains focused on protecting the current regime and delivering “value”… mostly to ourselves and our consultants. Thanks, but no thanks, Paul S. Pressler
Chairman of the Board, eBay
(And proud beneficiary of the status quo)

Sex with ghosts... A professor at Wayne State University in Detroit was giving a lecture on Paranormal Studies. To get a feel for his audience, he asks, "How many people here believe in ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands. "Well, that's a good start. Out of those who believe in ghosts, do any of you think you have seen a ghost?" About 40 students raise their hands. "That's really good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?" About 15 students raise their hand. "Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?" Three students raise their hands. "That's fantastic. Now let me ask you one question further...Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?" Way in the back, Hamid raises his hand. The professor takes off his glasses and says, "Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to have made love to a ghost You've got to come up here and tell us about your experience." The Middle Eastern student replied with a nod and a grin, and began to make his way up to the podium. When he reached the front of the room, the professor asks, "So, Hamad, tell us what it's like to have sex with a ghost?" Hamad replied, "Shit, from way back there I thought you said Goats."

Someone tap dancing to Megadeath was not on my bingo card today. Oddly enough this is really enjoyable 😂

I always thought the building in Battlefield V was great. Except the people who placed the buildings to build, were mentally unhinged. Some maps had none, where they should have had some. Other maps had them where no one in their right mind went. And they were elaborate as fuck.
