I do have regrets in life, like how it wasn't until today that I thought of calling cryptocurrency "Schmuck Bucks".

@evannichols the best time to start calling cryptocurrency Schmuck Bucks was 2009; the second best time is today.

@evannichols with a name like Schmuck Bucks it must be a scam!

@evannichols

Favor to ask.

Can you come up with one for AI?

"Bubble Rubble" lacks charm.

Ditto "Fossil Fuel Funded Fascism"

"Trust in Koch & Go Broke"?

The whole AI thing was ALWAYS just a grift to further destroy the middle class +further concentrate wealth in the hands of the 1%'ers

All of the bad things mentioned here are essentially "just icing on the cake" for the Epstein class...
