I got in a Twitter fight about GMOs once with this idiot TEN YEARS AGO and have apparently lived in his head rent free ever since. Incredible. Nassim Taleb, the embodiment of fragility. (Also, imbecile, “shills” get paid; I pissed you off for free. 😂) https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreidks6tssnt54qwjc3w65qzqzjruns2uzo6ijcgjplvz3ksbmjrp2u

Mike Benz, gloating ab ppl losing their jobs, worked for State Dept for approx 3 months, from Nov 2020 to Jan 2021. He claimed to “run cyber” — he didn’t. He used his brief stint to pretend he had inside secrets, deluding a bunch of rubes (incl Elon) into following his conspiratorial bullshit. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreidlvkd2n32bc2xi7hawawvi6cmbdqcf74mqgkaqkppxfqtn5ppfia

RFK JR’s crank organization Children’s Health Defense has bought itself a grievance-airing session inside in the US Senate. Witnesses are RFK Jr’s longtime antivax activist friends, including bullshit artists with retracted papers like Brian Hooker. [www.hsgac.senate.gov/subcommittee...](

Marc began calling for the prosecution of some of us who worked at Stanford, back in Dec 2022, right after the House changed hands. Including some of us he knew personally from time in tech, before he went off the deep end. Normal stuff! Stanford canceling his wife’s class prob didn’t help. RE:

It took supporters dying to make him back away—particularly bc crazy conspiracy theories ab FEMA didn’t stick this time.
