Nah, that's not gonna happen. Mush want's to hang out with the cool ~~kids~~ oligarchs and will always be willing to lick the boots to be accepted. It's kinda like Beavis and Butt-head's worship of Todd, no matter how much contempt and abuse he heaps upon them it just makes Todd cooler in their eyes.

So we're past the "big tent" stage and to the "Stabbing in the back" stage.

Placing a bomb and then switching to a weapon no longer applies its enchantments to the bomb damage.

Huh, never knew about that one.

hundreds of thousands in unpaid bills

Uhh... yeah. That's basically Trumps thing. Talking up someone (or some group), contract them do some work, then shaft them when the bills come due.

Just be aware that the Gemini is rather limited in the logic department, even as chat bots go.

Had A beer. One. Within 30 to 45 minutes I was throwing up everything I had eaten since I was 12. Was sick for 3 days.

Turns out, my liver doesn’t have the enzymes to correctly process alcohol.

Wow, I've never heard of that before.

Is it Tucker Carlson has hell hounds for pets?

I think he means it would take six hours of walking to reach his city. I mean I live four miles outside of town (which incidentally I'd need to travel to to reach a railroad) and even though it's smaller than 3000 people it still calls its self a "city". Also I'd like to note it's four miles of hilly terrain, which depending on season may feature hundred degree plus temperatures or foot deep snow.

Okay, hypothetically let's imagine someone who is a Bitcoin trading god. Every peak he's there unloading his bags, every dip and he's buying hundreds of Bitcoins. This guy turns thousands into millions and millions into billions. Huge success story right?

But here's the rub, where is all this money coming from? The money isn't coming out of thin air, it's not coming from the crypto exchanges, otherwise they'd go bankrupt, it's not coming from the value of any goods or services produced. The answer is that all that money is coming from other people. Someone has to be buying at the peak thinking it'll go "To the moon" and getting burned, or maybe the need to pay off some hackers cryptolocker. The same for the dip maybe someone needs real money right now and must sell despite the loss, or maybe someone is panic selling thinking the price will go lower. Our hypothetical trading god hasn't really created any money or anything of value at all, they've just moved money from the losers in the Bitcoin to his own wallet.

This makes you the equivalent to one of the spokespeople from near the top of a pyramid scheme taking about how this is one of the legit pyramid schemes, because you've earned so much money! Ignoring of course that all of their money means that someone somewhere needed to lose that money first.

However, I suppose at the end of the day, you did take twenty four thousand dollars from crypto morons, so I suppose that's kinda noble in a way.

Wow, that's bad. I thought it would be more of a "confusing a sentence for a similar sounding one" type thing but from the above and the article it's just generating semi-believable text and sticking them into the transcriptions.
