@matress_island Gregory Hines in "Tap" (1989) punctuated the end of tap as a centerpiece performance art that.
I still see tap showing up from time to time in side pieces or vignettes because it is still something taught as part of dance as part of theatre training/acting.
Good movie/musical.
I've known plenty of guys like Elon. At some point they gain access to enough of their parent's wealth to hire expertise to prop them up while the wealth compounds. The whole time they wax philosophically to cover their fundamental ignorance and immaturity. He has earned nothing.
BREAKING - MAGA candidate Tim Sheehy is trying to take Jon Tester's Senate seat in Montana.
Sheehy runs around claiming he was wounded in combat in Afghanistan.
He wasn't - he accidentally shot himself in 2015, and police and park ranger reports now PROVE it.
Sheehy is a LIAR.
Still trying to process the fact that Republicans’ top Senate recruit this cycle apparently shot himself accidentally in a Montana parking lot and then lied that the bullet wound came from fighting in Afghanistan.
What I miss the most is having some big issue of the day like a hurricane or a war, and then having a niche thread by the world expert on exactly that topic go viral. This platform used to be genuinely educational.
@notchrisvolpe We're turning into Russia where police only do what they want to do for their own power and otherwise leave everyone to fend for themselves.

Before Brexit the UK was about as rich as Germany, and richer than France.
Now it is much poorer than either, by 2030 we will be poorer than Poland, and by 2040 we will be poorer than all 27 EU countries.
The magic of Brexit.
I don't know who will win the election. But it's a sad statement about America that there's about an even chance that Donald Trump will be reelected. If you're in a swing state, I hope you will vote for the only candidate who stands between him and four more years—VP Harris.
