In other words, Chess isn’t an open-ended space war game, and therefore it sucks. Or could it be that his significantly more intelligent PayPal Mafia colleague Peter Thiel kicked his ass so hard in Chess that his only coping mechanism is to disparage it? Third possibility: His chess rant is just another example of his always annoying and ofttimes dangerous need to hyper-anal focus...

GagHalfrunt: For Musk, life, much like “Polytopia,” gives you a finite number of turns, and missing any could mean not reaching ambitious goals like colonizing Mars. (Is this a quote quote now?) Well, that’s one thing that definitely won’t happen within Leon’s lifetime, but being as detached from contemptuous of reality as he has become in recent years there is no way he’ll handle...

ebay lists a number of guitars with swift’s signature I have no idea what an authentic piece would look like, but it’s weird that the signature is always on this pick guard that could be cut from an LP sleeve and glued onto a guitar of dubious musicality.

Things that involve really long or high cables like that mystify me. Not that fact that you are carrying a locomotive, that all seems rather straight forward math. The logistics and how did you get those cables up there in the first place. It’s like the Arecibo Observatory. You built 3 massive pylons out in a remote area and then somehow hoisted 900 tons...

I always like how the low hanging fruit that chemtrails don’t exist is the sheer number of people you’d have to involve to even achieve something like that…it’s simply ludicrous. That logic alone seems to imply that pilots have a dedicated “chemtrail” switch.
