People on this app will still bitch about “filler” and “no answers” and “nothing happening” because they watch this show with their face buried in their phone. #FROM
Episode 4 of #FROM Season 4 is about to be crazy.
We will see Julie’s storywalk to a previous cycle, when the massacre occurred while Victor was a kid, with the Man in Yellow at its center.

Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."
Strongly dislike every single person who has allowed this government to have their reign of terror over the province for almost a decade. Irreparable damage that will haunt the province for another decade that follows assuming Ontario wakes up next election. #onpoli
✈️This morning, our government announced the expansion of Billy Bishop Airport, delivering more affordable flights, new routes and convenience for the millions of people who rely on it every year.
A modernized airport will strengthen Ontario’s position as a global hub, boost tourism and business travel, and create thousands of good paying jobs.
Hutson playing on the left side was his best stretch of hockey, so naturally, the coaching staff decides to put him on the right side for some reason? Come on… #gohabsgo
When you don’t get your security clearance so you can speak “freely” on issues and end up knowing absolutely nothing except how to make yourself look dumber everyday.
Once again, Pierre Poilievre puts on his smug look in the House of Commons, attempting to score cheap political points at the expense of Prime Minister Mark Carney.
And, once again, the PM owns PP in less than 30 seconds. #cdnpoli
On Khamenei:
We don’t list markets directly tied to death. When there are markets where potential outcomes involve death, we design the rules to prevent people from profiting from death. That is what we did here.
I know some of you disagree and prefer that we list these markets without a death carveout because it keeps the rules simple and because many traditional markets, like oil futures, can be proxy markets for war and death. But we believe that’s different than having a market directly settling on someone’s death, which is not allowed for US regulated entities.
What’s the point of the market, then?
A market on Ali Khamenei out as Supreme Leader was important because leadership changes in Iran have major impact on the world order:
• geopolitical implications
• economic consequences
• national security considerations
• oil and commodity prices, many of which move based on news and expectations around this outcome
And it’s always possible for a ruler to step down or transition power without death, even in autocracies. It just happened in Venezuela.
In these instances, we make the caveat clear in the rules and in the market page, but today is a good learning that we can do more in terms of improving the UX and adding more ways to surface the rules. We are committed to improving. In the meantime, here’s what we’re going to do:
• We are reimbursing all fees from this market
• If you have a position from before Khamenei died, you will be paid out on the last-traded price before his death. (This was clear in our rules)
• If you have a position from after he died, we’re going to fully reimburse your cost of entry
