Hey, remember Donald Trump? Well, it turns out that since hosting the Celerity Apprentinces, Donald “Trump” Trump has gone on to become the President Of America. Who knew?

And even though he’s long since hung up his The Apprentice hat, it seems like Old Don is up to his old tricks again but this time he’s targeting impending media conglomeration WarnerFlix NetBrothers for the “you’re fired treatment”. Haha.

Yes, this is the news that Netflix just agreed to a deal to buy Warner Bros Studios for an equity value of $72 billion and a total enterprise value of $83 billion BUT NOT SO FAST!

Donald John Trump just pointed out that Netflix had a “very big market share” which would “go up by a lot” under this deal and that “could be a problem” (not a threat).

Of course, this has nothing to do with Trump’s best pal’s son wanting to buy Warner Bros. No, that would be a conflict of interest, Trump would never go for that sort of thing.

You see, second richest man in the world, Larry ELLIOSN, sorry, I sneezed, ‘Ellison’, well, ignore him, his son David he bought Skydance, then Paramount and he’d set his eyes on the WB, but they weren’t even for sale and Netflix saw that and were like, hold on, if the Warner Bros are for sale I want in on that action.

And just like that, they outbid everyone else and suddenly, Warner Bros is for sale. Sale. Sold.

As they say, if the price is right, everything is for sale.

Of course the deal won’t be inked for at least a year and it’s still got to go through regulators which might be when Trump steps in and pulls the plug on the whole thing like he should have done with Fox/Disney *ahem*.

But assuming this does go ahead, what does that mean for my monthly entertainment budget? Currently I’m paying $50 a month for Tubi so if that goes up I’m going to be mad otherwise I don’t really care.

Here’s a good question though, what would the new company be called? Take your pick from the options below:

Netflix, Just Netflix

And I mean that’s the full tile, the ‘just netflix’ part as well.

Warner Flix

No.

Net Brothers

Sounds like they’re fishermen or spiders. No.

Netflix AOL Time Warner Brothers Discovery (A Gulf Western Company)

Rolls off the tongue.

Super Warner Brothers

Because it just got a powerup.

HBO Go

I would also accept: HBO Max, HBO Now, HBO, Max, and WBO.

Please-Mr-President-Let-Us-Merge-Companies-Flix

…probably the only one that will actually work.

‘He’ As In Schiff, Not Trump, Just To Be Clear…

Hey, remember Donald Trump? Well, it turns out that since hosting the Celerity Apprentinces, Donald “Trump” Trump has gone on to become the President Of America. Who knew?

And, but, even though he’s long since hung up his The Apprentice hat, it seems like Old Don is up to his old tricks again but this time he’s targeting ‘stockbroker’ Peter Schiff for the “you’re fired treatment”. Haha.

Yesterday, daily children’s television show about a talking fox and his buddies, Fox And Friends, hosted ‘stockbroker’ Peter Schiff on the podcast for some reason. But here’s the thing: Trump likes the fox but he also likes himself so it’s kind of awkward to have himself-critic on the thing he likes. It’s kind of hard to get your head around, “Thing I like likes thing I don’t like?” *Tim Allen wooouuuuhh?? noise*

“Why would Fox and Friends Weekend (of all things?) put on a ‘Stockbroker’ named Peter Schiff, a Trump hating loser who has already proven to be wrong,” said Trump on Truth Social. (What would a social truth look like? Oh, like the popular kid who just tells it like it is and is actually really mean but calls it honesty, is that what Truth Social is?)

Related story: Donald Trump

“Either the show made a mistake, or it is heading in a different direction. He thinks prices are going up when, in fact, they are coming substantially down. Gasoline hit $1.99 a gallon yesterday, in certain states, and is down BIG since Biden.”

Biden? Jesus Christ, he’s DEAD, move on!

Oh wait, I forgot to mention the ‘crazy’ part I teased in the headline. Bitcoin critic Schiff responded on X, saying, “Since Pres. Trump called me a jerk and a loser for claiming that prices are still rising when he insists they’re coming way down, I challenge him, or his designee, to a debate on the U.S. economy and the efficacy of his policies. If I’m as wrong as he says I am, let him prove it.”

In a separate post, Schiff also said that Donald should change the name of his social media site to “Lie Social.” Hahaha. That’s clever.

So whether Trump will actually take up the ‘stockbroker’ on his debate offer remains to be seen but no, he definitely won’t, what are you talking about? Of course that’s not going to happen.

Facebook’s daddy company, Meta, has just announced a 30% scale back of spending on their flagship VR ‘metaverse’ product and the whole planet let out a collective sigh of relief.

The market’s agreed that giving up on this dream is probably a good idea, gifting the Zuck a 5% stock boost for the company worth about $69 billion dollars in money.

We call that in the biz, “a carrot”.

facebook meta metaverse stock — Here’s a graph. Does this mean anything to you?

Metaverse? I hardly know her

For over half a decade, Facebook has really been trying to “make fetch happen,” but hasn’t released any substantial products, the ones they have shown off are janky af and no one really wants a virtual reality world in the first place except for sex pests and cool sci-fi hackers.

But no, when the Zuck goes, he goes hard, reskinning the company as ‘Meta’ in 2021, signalling its commitment to the pos product that no one wants.

That’s quite a statement there son, would be embarrassing if after committing to the name you then pivoted to AI in 2023, huh?

I mean, that really says it all. Tech companies all have that startup mindset of chasing growth above everything else. The moment you stop, you die. That’s why they all seem to branch out into these bizarre disparate products and it’s why they’ll push whatever new shiny thing they can find if it looks like it’ll get more eyes on them.

In the 2000s it was the internet, in the 2010s it was cloud computing, now it’s AI but for a moment there, the Zuck reeeeallly thought it was going to be VR.

The dog that caught the car

And yes, some of those bets paid off, but those successes are littered with the corpses of companies that lost out chasing the same goal. And on top of that, us poor consumers had to suffer through every fad being stapled to every product then rammed down our throats whether we wanted it or not. (Need I mention NFTs?)

So good riddance to the metaverse, but then, it was always meant to die. Just wait and see, when the next shiny shiny waves itself in front of Mark he’ll ditch AI just as quick. They all will. Because this isn’t about making good products. It’s about growth. It’s about making money above everything else.

And it always has been.

Was the night out at an accredited college or something?

I mean, this it just a regular night out with the lads. I know, it always starts with the promise of “only a couple drinks” but you know how it goes, drinks are expensive these days, plus club entry fees, who hasn’t racked up these kind of numbers on an average Friday?

Oh, sure, Chase Bank and the woman in the viral TikTok “claims” it was a computer glitch, but we all see through you, Maddie. We know what the sitch is, and you just don’t want your parents to find out.

In a now-deleted TikTok on her own account, she recounted the experience, saying, “I wish I could say I bought the city of Los Angeles. It’s not the case here. I’m not really sure what inclined me to check my bank account at like 2 am. But I did. And then I saw negative 49 billion.”

woman 50 billion debt — not sure I should be screenshotting someone’s banking app and putting it online but, err…

But before anyone could arrive to break her kneecaps, she called the bank, who replied, “‘Hello this is Chase bank how may I help you?’ Hi, I’m negative 50 billion dollars in debt, and I’m not quite sure why. Do I have 50 billion dollars? No. I do have $76. So she goes, ‘can I put you on hold?’ I’ve never seen this before. I was like, oh.”

‘Oh,’ indeed.

As some Redditors have pointed out, she probably just left a cute waitress a reasonable tip and didn’t want to own up to it. That or she did a little too much drunken online shopping on Lockheed Martin’s website.

You know, girl math.

Hey, look, so here’s the thing, and I can only apologize, but the story I had for this clickbait headline was from this article that says 11% of Black Friday purchases were made with things like Klarna and 95% came from credit card transactions. So, that’s not really news, is it? “BREAKING NEWS: Credit Cards Used At Christmas”…

But the thing is I kind of locked in on this headline before I actually checked the source soooo….

Oh, I’m sorry, were you expecting high-quality journalism from Wall Street Memes Dot Com?? Give me a break.

I guess I can still run with the latter part of my headline though…

OK, I just googled actual recession indicators and got bored immediately so here are some joke one’s instead:

TOP FIVE SEASONAL RECESSION INDICATORS!

5. Santa’s Fired His Elves

They weren’t able to unionize in time and have been replaced by AI.

4. Jerome Powell Has Been Added To The Naughty List

Who snitched? Don? Was it you?

3. IRS Will No Longer Accept Tax Returns ‘Via Chimney’

That could be a headline… Hey, if you see me use this in a couple of weeks, you know I ran out of ideas.

2. Colombian Drug Lords Are Shifting To ‘Fake Snow’ For Nativity Scenes Instead Of Cocaine

Too specific? Idk, I’ll brainstorm some other options…

1. Your Grandma Sends You Five Dollars Less This Year

Ok, but that one’s actually real though…

Alright, I hope you enjoy all that more than I did. I’m off to recess my indicators. Have fun.

What do you mean? The FBI aren’t the kind of people to hide things…

Bloomberg has uncovered that the Federal Bureau of Investigation ($FBI) paid at least $851,344 dollars in money in March this year for 14,278 hours in overtime to the 934 agents redacting Epstein files.

For an extra few dollars, maybe they should have redacted this info too…

Obviously, no one can confirm or deny that the redactions were specifically to remove █████’s name… wait, that was weird. █████. █████! Wtf, why won’t it let me type t-rump’s name…?

Ohhhh…

And of course, there could be other details that the FBI are obliged to remove. Apparently, medical records, names, and other details about the victims can’t legally show up in the files once they’re published or something? I’m not going to check that though. Who do you think I am, Snopes?

Plus, the FBI can’t release anything that might compromise national security, such as the new Putin-seeking-missiles that Epstein was funding, or let’s say maybe someone has some evidence that incriminates the President of the United States of…

Ohhhh…

Of course, █████’s clearly not in the files since he signed the law to release the so-called ‘Epstein Files’. Now, why would a guilty man do that?

█████’s smarter than all this, and he knows what he’s doing. He WANTS the files to be released, and he’s playing all of you.

Yes, for months he’s been publicly saying that the files shouldn’t be released, and yes, he had his attorney general and his head of the FBI claim that these files didn’t even exist, and yes, he called a reporter ‘piggy’ for some reason for even mentioning the files, BUT IT’S ALL A PLAY!

They can detail his close ties to a podophile. They can call him an adulterer. They can claim he had sex with a horse or Bill Clinton (whichever is worse), but it won’t matter.

You see, when the files get released and █████’s name is all over them, the American public will have no choice but to accept that Donald █████ is a real-life sex offender.

Finally, he’ll be able to be his true self. No more hiding, no more lies, it’ll all be out in the open, and there will be nothing anyone will be able to do.

What are you going to do, impeach him? Babe. He’s famous. He’s the most powerful person in the world. You’re going to unspool all that just because he’s a little bit of a sex pest? Because he’s committed a few crimes? Phhff.

We already know all that and he’s still in power, babe.

This changes nothing! NOTHING!

All that changes is that █████ will finally be able to ascend to his final form: a completely bulletproof man, impervious to any and all accusations, entirely unstoppable and ETERNALLY POWERFUL! AHHHH!!!!

So when these files get released and you see █████ start to glow and levitate, now you’ll know why.

Checkmate, atheists.

Cheap as chips

Tbf I haven’t actually heard anything about Mr Huang responding, but you can probably imagine him being mad about it. Him just seething. Just cooking in his leather jacket…

Anyways, online booksellers, ‘Amazon Dot Com’ launched their new AI chip ‘Trainium3’ on Tuesday and according to the corp servers on that chip are 4x faster, energy efficient than previous generations and are up to 40% cheaper than Nvidia’s competitor chips.

But they would say that, wouldn’t they?

“Trainium already represents a multibillion-dollar business today and continues to grow really rapidly,” Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman said during the tech giant’s annual event, re:Invent. Sure, like I’m trusting the guy who pressed off and on again on the internet a couple months ago.

The awkward thing is that Amazon is a massive Nvidia customer. In fact, more than 10% of Lama Zone’s capital expenditure (that CapEx to all the cool boys out there) goes to Nvidia and in return, Amazon is 7.5% of Nvidia’s revenue.

So you’re saying the money’s just going round in a circle? What’s another word for a 3D circle again? Oh yeah: a bubble.

…what does all this have to do with selling books?

Previously on, ‘Tech Oligopoly: The Series’

Back in November, Amazon got a 5% stock boost from the announcement that OpenAI will access hundreds of thousands of Nvidia graphics cards through its cloud computing service.

The deal was just one of many that OpenAI made this year. $300 billion with Oracle. $22 billion with CoreWave. Plus the ink’s only just dried on agreements with Broadcom, AMD, Nvidia and my mate Nigel who has a basement that they can use if Sharon kicks them out again.

And it looks like OpenAI might need it soon because, lady and gentleman, the bubble is at a-bursting point.

Nvidia just topped $5 trillion. OpenAI is about to be worth $1 trillion with barely any revenue (but hey, they are a non-profit). And everyone’s getting into bed with each other, assuring that if one drowns, they all drown (not sure why the bed’s in the ocean, but here we are).

Maybe at least one of those data points will change soon however, as OpenAI have started to work with Microsoft to see if they can change to a for-profit.

Let’s just see how all this pans out…

Cassandra’s at it again…

Famed investor, Michael ‘The Big Short’ Burry, just made a slew of apocalyptic predictions and they’re not exactly optimistic, but what did you really expect from an apocalyptic prediction?

Here’s a roundup of all the headlines he’s made this week:

The stock market is due for “a number of bad years” from a market-wide selloff worse than the 2000s market crash.

Bitcoin is the “tulip bulb of our time”.
Tesla is “ridiculously overvalued”.
Palantir will be worth a lot less in two years.
Interest rates shouldn’t be lowered.
The Fed shouldn’t exist and should be replaced by the Treasury Department.
Christian Bale isn’t returning his calls about The Big Short 2.

…Ok, that last one I made up, but the rest he did say.

I mean, that’s a lot of yapping for one small man. This is all from multiple blog posts right? Oh, this is all from one podcast interview? Oh damn.

Tell us how you really think, Michael.

But why should we listen to this guy? He keeps saying Troy is going to fall all day every day, but has it fallen yet? No, so he’s clearly wrong, I’m going to put my faith in the great gods of Apollo, Nvidia and Elon Musky Musky Musk.

Wow, what a ride it’s been. Remember those halcyon days back in March when all anyone could talk about was Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (or DOGE for short if you want to be efficient about it and save time rather than having to type it all out and explain what that means exactly, plus it’s a funny reference to a misspelling of the word ‘dog’ which is already a pretty cute animal but then if you infer on top of that that the dog can’t talk properly, well that’s just a recipe for a timeless meme that will never go out of style and/or be cringe)?

Anyway, what was I talking about? Oh, yeah, DOGE has shut down, finally achieving its ultimate goal of enacting government cuts on itself.

Over the weekend, Reuters spoke with the director of Personnel Management, Scott Kupor, who said that DOGE “doesn’t exist,” and is no longer a “centralized entity.” Although I’m not sure it ever was…

My submission for the official logo, sadly this didn’t win out and they went for just a stupid dollar sign that isn’t even the meme or anything smh

The D-O-G-E may be gone, but many of the workers have simply migrated to other agencies. As one USDA source told Wired, “They are in fact burrowed into the agencies like ticks.”

And of course, the spirit can never be killed, like Jesus. As Kupor later tweeted, “principles of DOGE remain alive and well: deregulation; eliminating fraud, waste and abuse; re-shaping the federal workforce; making efficiency a first-class citizen; etc.”

You see that etcetera? That’s efficiency. That’s DOGE.

DOGE-ed a bullet

So what is this so-called dog’s legacy? Well, with its mission to save hundreds of billions of dollars in government waste, Musk’s initiative has ended up costing Washington about $21.7 billion and taxpayers $135 billion. And, due to foreign aid cuts, DOGE has killed over 600,000 people, mostly children.

So yeah, I’d chalk that up to a win.

…because it’s a grift, always has been.

Don Jr and Eric Trump’s crypto mining company, American Bitcoin, just lost two-fifths of its value, and not just because it’s a valueless asset designed to be dumped. Wait, did I say that out loud?

Yep, almost $1 billion dollars in actual money was wiped off the Trump bros’ fledgling startup in under half an hour, mainly because the lock-up period just ended and all the investors suddenly remembered that they had better things to do with their money.

Trump crypto graph — Here’s hoping the graph is just upside down…

Naturally, Eric took to X to quell any panic, writing that investors were just exercising their option to “cash in on their profits for the first time which is why we will see volatility… I’m holding all my @ABTC shares – I’m 100% committed to leading the industry.”

Wait, does he not know? Should somebody tell him? Eric, my boy, the first rule of the con is you don’t con yourself…

Crypto? More like, grift-o

Eric’s also the guy who formally bragged on X that American Bitcoin handled 2% of the world’s Bitcoin transactions. Which can’t be true, you’re saying only 2% of bits coined are American? We used to be a real country…

Trump’s sons are also the founders of the shitcoin, World Liberty Financial, which also had a massive crash, down 86% this year. Turns out listing your dad/the president as “co-founder emeritus, whatever that means, isn’t enough to save your floundering business ventures.

In other news, Bitcoin just hit a two-week high, so make of those two pieces of news what you will…
