Right off the bat, red flag: You can't uncritically repeat a parents' assessment of their child when both parties are under criminal suspicion, and you sure can't cite the crime as evidence for exceptional brilliance
"they're unique geniuses and that's how they made so much money" and "they're just kids who made a lil boo-boo :( they didn't understand" seem pretty diametrically opposed, but the parents seems to be arguing that both are true
@GunjanJS@SBF_FTX "In an explanation that reflects more carelessness about signing legal documents than Stanford law professors typically possess, Bankman told The New Yorker that he and his wife signed the deed in error; that the house was intended to be company property"
Sounds very plausible.🙄
As I was reading SBF's lawyers' letter looking for any new argument in it, I'm listening to the New Yorker piece today about his parents and how they all wanted to help the poor - by living in a $16 million mansion in the Bahamas and playing tax games. #spin
Incredibly embarrassing for The New Yorker to print "SBF's mom said it's perfectly legal and commonplace practice" — and leave it at that — when her own PAC immediately condemned the practice as "illegal"

I really wish people would stop drastically using the scenarios of rape or incest as the sole premise for an abortion. A woman doesn’t have to be in a traumatic situation for it to be reason enough. In fact there is zero explanation that needs to be given.
One example that really summarizes Elon Musk is when he said he'd fix all the lead pipes in Flint and just donated water filters to 12 schools instead.
Sick of people calling everything in crypto a Ponzi scheme. Some crypto projects are pump and dump schemes, while others are pyramid schemes. Others are just standard issue fraud. Others are just middlemen skimming of the top. Stop glossing over the diversity in the industry.
