They said on Trashfuture that the banks who financed Musk's Twitter takeover are unable to resell the debt. They are now stuck with a large and essentially worthless asset that is hanging like an albatross around the legs of their portfolios.

This has allegedly already caused some bankers to not get their bonuses.

Yes. It is very believable that the guy who holds a doctorate in Marxism is unable to explain the concept of dialectic materialism. I am sure this is a very serious and credible text

The yanks had well-documented problems with substance abuse related to their war against Vietnam, probably also from other atrocities. The Nazis were infamous for doing Pervitin, although I don't know where the historical truth stops and the urban legends begin with that one.

Atrocity-related substance abuse is a real thing.

After a long day in the most moral army in the world, defending the only democracy in the middle East against a new holocaust, you really need to pop some Panzer chocolate to make those children's screams go away so you can sleep.

The closest I can come is blackletter or fraktur scripts that were once used for generic languages. As far as letters go they are silly and overcomplicated, with Latin scripts being far easier to read and more adaptable to different visual styles.

With that being said, they do have their own old-timey charm and there is something satisfying in being able to pick up a old book in blackletter and read it when you know that most people can not.

Fun fact: Blackletter was only used for Germanic languages. If a text contained non-Germanic passages it was normal to set those in Latin letters while the rest was set in blackletter.

I love the idea of a modern runic script, suitable for contemporary Scandinavian languages. Would you care to elaborate on your thoughts on this?

I feel like too few people truly grasps the body horror of teeth. Those fuckers are terrifying.
