Mummy, why do goldfish die? Virtually every part experiences start, progress, maturity, decline, demise, decomposition. All that modifications is the time it takes to get from mud to mud.
The Ponzi scheme lookalike FTX crypto change skilled this cycle in quicktime.
Based in Could 2019, by January 2022 it was valued at $32 billion. Right this moment it’s price a lot lower than nothing and is as a substitute an enormous legal responsibility the place the post-mortem of what went improper is simply simply starting. That was fast.
Thoughts you, the report for shedding different individuals’s cash in report time remains to be presently being held by the vastly incompetent and completely unrepentant Liz Truss.
Her ‘mini finances’ – and let’s all give thanks that it was solely a mini model and never the maxi one – price the UK £30 billion kilos.
Sure, in simply seven weeks she managed to lose a lot cash that the UK taxpayers should now be crushed underneath the heel of Tory austerity for the subsequent two years. Once more.
How she will be able to present her face in Parliament, not to mention public, is a thriller.
A minimum of SBF, Sam Bankman-Fried, the person behind FTX has had the widespread decency to go darkish, though that received’t final as he’s about to spend the a long time in a authorized quagmire mud wrestling each three lettered company within the USA which in all probability received’t be fairly as a lot enjoyable because it sounds.
And right here comes a brand new contender, it’s Elon Musk, now performing a dwelling post-mortem on the monster he as soon as so beloved, sacking everybody who doesn’ t swear fealty to hardcore labour.
I’d attain out to Twitter to touch upon this text however the comms workforce isn’t there anymore.
Maybe Twitter doesn’t want employees in any respect. Maybe the decentralised delusions of Web3 and crypto could be someway utilized.
Let the individuals run Twitter, let or not it’s free from all constraints, and norms, and legal guidelines, let it discover its personal means and run wild with out content material moderators. Or advertisers. Or individuals to show the lights off on the now closed places of work
All it actually wants is just a few geeks to verify the code hangs collectively, they are often rehired, and a man to depend the cash because it burns to zero and past. I hear Kami Kwazi is open to work, and is aware of precisely learn how to do as he’s instructed.
Individuals and energy. So humorous, so tragic.
Our Authorities is presently in the identical start to loss of life cycle, clearly within the decline o’clock quadrant. It’s humorous when it’s not upsetting and really costly, to observe what was a critical and credible political get together crumble and sure quickly it’ll actually fall into demise and decomposition. I believe we could also be witnessing the final years of the Conservatives, like the previous few white rhinos, solely much less unhappy.
They got here, they lived, they fed on the trough, they’d their time, and now they’re dying away, to get replaced by one thing extra suited to a contemporary age. Rishi Sunak doesn’t give the impression of main the Tory Social gathering to victory as a result of he’s not, he’s managing its decline.
Rishi is an accountant. He is an efficient man for the present managed decline of the Tory Social gathering, and with it the managed decline of the UK.
