Gotta go punch back in to FC25, John!
Missoula has an airport?!
Got my fingers crossed that America is authoritarian enough that the President can convince his people that he is a strong man by disclosing that we were told in advance about the attack and claim it was a hugely successful attack. Dark times, Hank.
I guess. I’m really happy with my Series X (that I got for $500). Probably my favorite console yet. Game Pass is a great value. The network is usually bulletproof. Download speeds are fast. Controller is comfy. My PS5 sits largely unused.
I’d love a $1,000 Xbox, but I want it to have performance in line with it. Go low, and go super high, and stop trying to get a middle that refuses to leave PlayStation.
I think you get one more. But admittedly, I’m not sure.
Awesome socks club!
YT comments are a mess on mobile’s so my guess is your favorite joke in it is the “Working too hard for Smartypants Presentation” title. So easy to miss
These were literally awarded to us because the rest of the world assumed we were smart enough to not re-elect Trump and there would be no way he’d be back.
Reminds me of Fidji Simo. Her entire resume is leaving before there can be any accountability (or in her defense, credit) and somehow turning it into a bigger gig EVERY TIME.
But now we’re all just busy doing nothing.
Trump is a jerk and he took over the party because his populism wins elections. The same goes for Hogg. I’m tired of democrats being perceived as out of touch PC losers.
Certainly going to make the appeal difficult.
Boy do I wish they won this 3-0
Sorry to be a bother, it how does this playoff work? If Wimbledon’s wins, what happens next?
That explains it. I also assume it’s like hockey where if it’s close, they typically err on let them play during the playoffs?
I was wondering that! Seemed unintentional. Does that get a yellow card?
So many questions! Does Out Of Bounds only kind of count? Twice Notts Lane went OOB by a foot and it wasn’t called. How is a two players getting tangled up a yellow card?
Watching it for the first time! Free Paramount+ with Walmart+, so here we go!
In the first showdown, locked countries seemed to not matter at all, and actually may have worked against you. In this one, it seemed to be the deciding factor. Did the game change, or is it just luck? How much real time does it take to lock a country vs. marching on and claiming another country?
Made me chuckle
Under typical circumstances, I would agree. But the economy hasn’t functioned since the 1% got more than 40% of the wealth. If we can reduce the 1% to having 30% of the wealth, we will have an economy that works for everyone and a country that leads the world.
Yeah, so there’s an Illuminati, and they use Trump to crush the middle class and poor. Yet another belief you were attacked for having Trump Derangement Syndrome if you said six months ago. Apparently @mcuban.bsky.social is a good guy though. Thanks, Mark! www.yahoo.com/news/group-c...
Appreciate you clearing that up. I’m so shocked by Wiskus blocking a paying customer for honest feedback that I take nothing for granted if it’s how the CEO is allowed to behave.
100%! I’m old and I figure yelling for laughs may be a a thing the not nearly dead do nowadays. I don’t know. But I’ll say there’s a lot of people agreeing, so I’m thinking it’s one of those cases where it playing in the room with drinks flowing is different than on TV.
They deleted that person’s comment & I got blocked by Wiskus for knocking the screaming, so be careful. Nebula would rather attack their fans than get feedback. I cancelled Nebula, even tho I *love* Jet Lag & co. Adam took the same critique like a pro though. Ep 3 still screams too much.
You know, Fred, with DOGE’s new savings goal being 150 Billion instead of 2 Trillion, Elon probably could have save himself a lot of grief and money by just cutting the check himself.
What’s the business model on this? What are they really looking to accomplish? Who’s behind it?
I was so frustrated by (white) saviors online criticizing Royal Caribbean for continuing to go to Haiti. RCI deemed it was safe, it was far from the conflict, and the gangs want nothing to do with USA citizens. Haiti needs all the attention and money it can get. This discourse hurts Haiti.
Personally, I hope we never forget Strom’s name and what he did. As we discuss the merits of ending DEI programs it is important to understand the history of why we needed them in the first place.
Stuff you should know, the happiness lab, the money guy show, scishow tangents (too soon?)
@dwiskus blocked me because I said people yell too much on abolish everything as use it as a crutch. To which, a dozen people agreed in the thread. Cancelled @nebula.tv today because if you can’t take honest, fair feedback from your customers I don’t need to give you my money anymore.
I own two teslas and I literally root for its collapse. I mean, hell, as a customer, Elon’s hung us out to dry. Service has been non-existent for years now. It’s all selling new cars to new people. He’s emptied the entire product pipeline. Elon is using his money for evil, so we’re stuck.
I think I may be talking into the void because you blocked me, but if this completely fair feedback resonates so strongly with you that it offends you, you should probably listen to it, as opposed to hide from it.
Oh god. The last thing that show needed was more energy. All it is, is yelling and swearing as a crutch for comedians too afraid to not kill with every single joke on stage. In the room, a bunch of drinks deep and with other people, it’s great. On TV, it’s draining at best and annoying at worst.
It’s literally enshrined in the constitution. Will the Republican Party PLEASE stand up against fascism before we lose the entire country?
Do you not see the irony in defending a man who takes great joy in cutting his workforce of working class people in half? These people are celebrating Elon being worth only 180 billion dollars now. You celebrate a guy who’s laying off good talent that now can’t pay their rent. 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Says the guy who derives joy from cutting his workforce in half.
John, when you are the author who wrote a book that sold 76% of Catcher in the Rye’s *lifetime* sales, you can demand they do it left handed, and they’ll do it. I just find it charming that you seemingly are the only person who doesn’t realize it.
And here he thought it wouldn’t sell! Congratulations, John!
The article below this one says that the Ioniq 5 is being made in the US, but this article says it’s made in Korea. Any chance you can you clarify that?
But then who pays for the electricity in those cases? The cost of the install? The maintenance? The answer is a ChargePoint L2 charger. It lets you charge a slight overhead charge for maintenance, installation, and billing. It’s not THAT much. A CP double L2 charger is like 8K.
But for an apartment dweller, it’s the only way it works, other than having them use Superchargers. Some complexes may be able to wire an outlet j to the meter to your house, but for most it will be too cost prohibitive.
I swore it off after last episode, but I’ll try it one more time.
We need more POS stations like ChargePoint going.
I remember Mitch McConnell calling Obama not a Marxist Liberal but “creating the feeling of far left elements disproportionately benefitting the middle class and poor.” Oh, wait… The left needs their Mitch McConnell and Schumer ain’t it.
It is such a fun celebration. I thought it’d be so sad, but it actually made my day and was the perfect send off. It really stinks to see something so great go away, but it’s definitely more of a party than a funeral. I’m terribly sorry to hear about everything you’re going through. It’s so sad.
I really hope you all consider dusting off the crew and doing a P4A one off every year, so if for no other reason, we can check in, be silly and nerd out. Best wishes!
There’s a cute little 4 year old who cannot stop singing the tangents is gone song (because he doesn’t know it means it’s the last one) and rocks out so hard to the intro/outro theme he shakes the entire car boppin to it. He’s GLP, so he can’t really follow it, but he loves his parts of it.
Yeah. Represents them well, because some are finally growing a spine.
I think he’s the worst person in America. Convince me otherwise. Yet he’s married. Has kids. The worst person in America, has a family. How?!
Billionaires propped him up to stage a coup. They took Trump at face value of Project 2025, sanewashed virtually every comment he made, and wouldn’t cover the insane things he did during his campaign. Many people hear only good things about him. Cuban and Branson didn’t get the invite, apparently.
In a related note, Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a heck of an EV!
Great job today! You were a great listener, interviewer, and conversationalist on the stream with @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social Welcome to the Nerdfighter community (like it or not!)
*love* the ACLU, but I’m sorry RBG nuked her reputation and everything she allegedly stood for when she refused to step down because she wanted to stay relevant. So much of the mess we have today is because of her. She only cared about her, not the cause.
It’s why no one is a passionate democrat but people will disown their children for maga
Schumer HAS to go. He isn’t the democratic Mitch McConnell, and that’s a problem.
“Can full self driving get me to Moscow?”
Couldn’t care less about him working Remote. The rampant ketamine symptoms, the empty product pipeline, failing service centers, and AI/Robot Fraud? That’s why you fire someone.
Concerning!
You ever see the Okaihau Express Challenge? Haha
No no, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to imply YOU were dismissing her! I meant the reader the meme was targeted to. Which is why that imaginary reader, would never read it, or be moved by it. So it preaches to the choir, and comes off as condescending to some.
The best bosses I’ve had, with the exception of one, were all women.
But tell me again why we need democrats to go to gun shows and talk sports.
Real feedback: content was funny as hell, but relying on yelling like the other comedians didn’t do it justice. Ben and Ike killed because they used quiet and pauses, almost everyone on Abolish yells and/or swears as a crutch. Kinda ruins the show, tbh. Note: I’m old. So, so old.
Agreed. Though, I’d also point out that the spirit of that meme is a comparison, as opposed to an attack. Before you dismiss Jasmine for being black and having a less traditional name, check her qualifications.
For the people we want running our country, they should be smarter than we are, no?
They literally had to invent the term “Alternative Facts”.
I think the biggest problem is right wing media driving the narrative and mainstream media going with it to appear unbiased. How do we compete with that?
Oh thank goodness. Haha
As a Connecticut Resident, stand strong, ma’am. The Republicans didn’t help Obama or Biden once. There comes a point where if you want to stop losing in politics, you have to play politics to win.

But again, if someone bought their car before all this nonsense, you’re probably going after someone who agrees with you. Again, if they bought the car years ago, it will have silver door handles, and Elon back then was tweeting about equality and climate change.
You said fire him.
You really need to better understand American politics. The bar to expel a president is so incredibly high. Unfortunately, 35% of America believes this guy because of right wing media, and 25% are indifferent, and that’s enough to sway an election.
No, because then I’m going to get unwanted attention from MAGA people who are going to be mad that I’m taking shots at their second deity. Like I said, if it has silver handles, they bought it from the Elon Musk that at least spoke to decency and climate change.
For sure. Like I said, this thing blows up, I’m getting an Ioniq 5. It’s not as good as a Y, but it’s absolutely good enough, with way better service on top.
But when my 3 is worth 17K, and an Ioniq 5 is 45K + tax, I’m not going to replace it when it doesn’t hurt Elon at all. I give Tesla virtually no money, it doesn’t hurt him at all to sell it.
If it’s got silver door handles, we bought our car from Iron Man. Now we’re all stuck getting our service from a Bond villain. I can’t afford to dump my Tesla, but I assure you, I won’t replace it with another.
Real medicine is DOA under the Trump cuts. All those diseases and conditions that you thought you’d see cured or treatment improve over your lifetime? Yeah, Trump just cut the funding that was going to cause that. It’s over. Cancer wins.
The kid should have respect. I was fine with it until he put the bat down. That’s when it went from being fun and silly, to disrespectful to every other player there and just wanting attention and interrupting the game. Kid needs to be mentored and taught. He doesn’t know better.
Hakeem Jeffries is an idiot. Who are the “far left” and why is their agenda so extreme? Leave the trans stuff out of it. But main issues, income disparity, housing affordability, education, infrastructure. These are issues dems should win on.
To put their own wants and entertainment above their role in the game (society) and understand expectations for how to behave with respect for others. I’m sorry, but that kid is going to grow up to be everything wrong with most of America right now. I do whatever I want, because it’s what I want.
He did most of that at the very end of his life to rehabilitate his reputation for the history books. The ultra wealthy have always been the enemy of the working class, for all of time.
I don’t understand the anti .69 folks. To me, it’s so endearing that this group of largely intellectuals who are raising money for some pretty important causes, and are getting older by the year, are still silly enough to try to make sure it always ends in .69 Then again, I also love Jarrod.
Yes, when you think of someone who really sits down and understands the nuances of an issue before doing random garbage to just take credit, you think Donald Trump. These people voted for who they wanted Trump to be, not who he is.
Logically they are trying to hold off people realizing he’s a lame duck for as long as possible because he has a unique ability to keep the entire party in line. But also, Trump will try for it, because he will. Who knows what happens then.
… and if the US didn’t help stop the fascists, because say, the US was the fascists, then what would have happened? That’s what worries me.
A little bit of crabulo.us in my wife. What? Come on chat, don’t make this weird. -John Green
You cannot appreciate this post until you realize he had been up for 8 minutes after only sleeping for like 3 hours.
Any chance we can add Dear Katherine and Sarah? I feel like my wife could really use some mom camaraderie this year.
I genuinely wonder if this weekend will make a meaningful impact in bluesky sign ups.
Made me lol. Thanks!
Clearly, Jarrod has spent the last year launching his AI startup that uses large language models to develop synergies across diverse enterprises to assist with commercialization. He’s already sold it.
Was hoping VPs would at least get a presale code or something. Bummer.
