        Yeah honestly I don’t even talk about issues anymore (except obviously the attempted dissolution of NATO), I just bring up the fact that Trump sent 84 fake electors to 7 states to try to steal the EC victory in 2020 but failed and now he has 34 felonies. Nobody should care more about immigrants or abortion than they should living under an actual fucking fascist dictatorship.

    Sighs, and begrudgingly resets a counter labeled, “Days Since I’ve thought about Martin Shkreli.” Then, I place my head in my hands and begin to weep.

      For anyone wondering, the dude seems to be a professional scumbag: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Shkreli

      Or maybe unprofessional, given he himself got scammed. Also, has a YouTube channel where he likely talks out of his ass about more things one person could know about reasonably well.

        He makes musk look competent by comparison. Honestly I’d rather have shkreli back in the headlines.

      Whatever happened to that Wu Tang album? I remember reading it was sold to cover debt and the buyer planned for a wider release but never saw any update anywhere.

      And something about Shkreli livestreaming it at some point and a lawsuit about that.

        Isn’t this just that green cartoon ogre thing?

        Very overrated film too; very 2-dimensional characters.

    I watched that documentary about him where a bunch of people who knew him tried to convince the audience that he’s actually not a bad guy. But it failed, that documentary made me hate him more. He’s a fucking piece of shit.

    Reminds me of Suleyman Demirel’s saying “Today is today, and yesterday was yesterday” after his lie he said the previous day was exposed.
