Glad to see people talking about Penn Jillette. The 2024 interview was done by me. I found him to be a refreshingly reflective, self-critical individual who has remained curious and willing to evolve.

I will only ever remember Varoufakis as the guy Valve hired to research the Steam marketplace so him going pro-gamer mode when it came to all the racism in the new NSS shouldn't be unexpected
Why is he like this? Does he wake up and go: "My vatnik brain compels me to lick the yummy boot of murder and oppression"

2) She has the worst taste in projects of any actor I've ever seen. Everything she's been in recently has bombed and, no offense to the lefties who think otherwise, it's not because of her politics. Even if she *were* trying to bring MAGA to Hollywood her window of opportunity has probably closed.

This dynamic soured fast and left everybody looking vaguey stupid because:
1) Sweeney is pretty clearly a Republican, maybe even a Trump voter, but she's not so Republican that she wants to be seen as the Nazi Barbie of their dreams (no money in that), leading to muddled statements like this.

Basically the culture war obsessed conservatives got worked up over the idea that if a sexy and popular Hollywood starlet was seen to endorse their views, it would trigger a domino effect in their favor and a lot of deeply insecure lefties believed them.
Sydney Sweeney tried again to address her American Eagle jeans ad controversy, saying she is ‘against hate and divisiveness.’

Q: How quickly will this affect prices at the grocery store?
TRUMP: I think the prices are gonna be, ah, going down already. I mean, the prices are way down. We brought prices way down from what it was. We inherited high prices.

I want capital to understand what is happening here.
A company with much more capital offered a higher bid than a rival bidder was willing or able to match.
Now the rival bidder is attempting to undercut the deal with a worse price on grounds of ideology and closeness with a lawless regime.
