A lot had to go wrong for us to be able to purchase a cooked whole chicken in a can.
1. Someone had to come up with the idea to put a whole chicken in a can. Then, that person would somehow not be escorted out by security.
2. Multiple people had to approve it as a product to be sold.
3. People actually manufactured this.
4. Enough people bought it to keep it around.
It's like a disaster parlay bet.
Nuno Loureiro was assassinated yesterday
He was a professor + the director of MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center
> 47 years old
> Studied nuclear fusion (= energy source of the Sun + stars) for 10 years at MIT
> His award-winning work focused on creating a virtually limitless, clean energy source on Earth - one that doesn’t produce carbon or radioactive waste (usual biproduct of fission reactors)
> His research was essentially a threat to companies in the energy sector (fossil fuels, wind, solar, etc)
> Nuno was vital to the development of fusion nuclear power plants, without him the path ahead is less clear + his death will set back the entire field
Nuno is not the first MIT fusion scientist to be brutally murdered, in 2004 Eugene Mallove was also shot in his home
I hope this opens eyes – there is an agenda at play
@RobLooseCannon Someone somewhere is upset on someone else's behalf by that word but they forgot to be offended by the word "slut" which is also in the song and still gets played and nobody bat's an eyelid 🤷
Sir Christopher Lee was a direct descendant of Charlemagne.
And in part the inspiraton for James Bond!
He was the only person on the Lord of the Rings set who actually met Tolkien.
Sir Christopher Lee (Saruman) wasn't just an actor. He was a cousin of Ian Fleming and the real-life inspiration for James Bond.
Through his mother's noble Italian Carandini family, he traced his ancestry directly back to Charlemagne, the 8th-century Holy Roman Emperor, a lineage so distinguished that Emperor Frederick Barbarossa granted the family the right to bear the imperial coat of arms in the 12th century.
He even released a symphonic metal album, Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross, narrating his ancestor's saga.
During WWII, he worked with the Special Operations Executive (SOE).
Decades later, he met J.R.R. Tolkien in a pub in Oxford. Tolkien gave him his blessing to play Gandalf. Although he ended up playing Saruman, he read the books once a year for his entire life.
He lived the fantasy before he acted it.
First session in Ireland 🇮🇪
My boards didn’t make it in time, my friend Conor saved the day and loaned me his 8’0” gun!
Thank you to all the locals for sharing their spot. 🤙

Trump got booed so hard at the Commanders game he literally said, “I, state your name…” during the pledge.
Man short-circuited mid-sentence. The boos broke him.
