IIRC he made a joke offer to buy it in a Tweet at a certain price per share (that was ridiculously high) and because he was literally just sanctioned by the FCC for market manipulation his joke had to become a reality in order for him to avoid serious penalties (the FCC was DONE with his shit at this point).

Everything since then has just been off his dome. Obviously it's pretty bad up in there since it's just a roaring money fire ATM.

It's ok, I bought copies for my friends to cancel your vote out.

"Bon Jovi for Goth Dads" is the other one I enjoy. I love Ghost, Tobias writes exactly the music he wants. Not trying to be metal, he was heavily influenced by og heavy metal (Sabbath) and the theatrics of the glam/hair metal era (Kiss). Combine the two and ya, that's just Ghost.

It's very intentionally campy and fun, like year round Halloween.

It was Lewy Body Dementia. He had periods of lucidity and in one of those decided that he no longer wanted to live as a prisoner in his own body, and a burden to his family because for all intents and purposes his life as a functioning human was over.

Honestly his entire circumstance is a shining example of why we need a death with dignity law.

Which one do you have? That is pretty much my exact use case!

This one may be kinda weird, but I regularly scroll wayyy back in the Giant Bombcast feed and will pick a point in time and listen forward. It's like hanging out with old friends again, it's always kinda bittersweet. You always have a soft spot for your first parasocial relationship πŸ’œ

Everything else aside, I just got a large rib tattoo and I almost had to tap out after 2.5hrs, this is impressively large unless their artist is a speed demon.

I imagine it's probably something to do with the live piercing, which I assume to be hook pulls? Needle play really icks some people out, but I don't know if it would be visible from an opera stage

Exactly. The whole exchange seems like it caught him on the back foot and wasn't something he was prepped for so he felt he had to explain the entire situation and got lost in his story and never put a bow on it. When the moderator pressed him after he had finished he followed up with basically "I misspoke, I apologize, shit happens".

Meanwhile Vance refused to give a solid answer on who won in 2020, but people say he took the debate.

He did answer it, literally said he misspoke but he was there during the summer (iirc).

This is literally the first time I have seen Things Fall Apart mentioned since high school, 20yrs ago.

Good book, kinda got ruined by the typical over analysation of a HS English class though.

Did over two 2.5-3hr sittings. Wanted to finish it up the first day but it was 11pm and we were getting tired.
