@alt_w_v_g Women rarely ever communicate directly. This is not about the toilet seat, and she won't tell you what it's really about because she wants you to figure it out on your own. Try to figure out what you did in the recent past that might have annoyed her.
English

Wife complained tonight that I left the toilet seat up
I take notes and read the fine print so of course I pulled the data
Told her I have lowered the seat 47 times in the last 30 days
And that she has raised it zero
She looked at the ceiling
Make it make sense
Make common sense common again
Plz fix. Thx.

@Byron95531691 @ryancohen @Shripriya why, because you were dumb enough to buy at the highs? There are heaps of GME shareholders who bought back in 2020 and are sitting on massive gains right now.
English

@ryancohen @Shripriya Can you focus on GME and provide shareholder value instead of shitposting. Markets at all time highs and we’re just bag holding from your repeated dilutions.
English

is this what an ebay board member should be focusing on? @Shripriya
Milo Smith@mil000
are we seriously gatekeeping high schools
English

@GoatBeardzDD Or the initial take over bid is a sleight of hand and RC has an alternative, much more realistic, offer to be revealed later on. He fully expects the eBay board to reject this offer, which will allow him to move on with the hostile takeover. He needs viable reason to do so.
English

Burry is acting dumb here.
An $11B company making a $56B bid for a $48B company.
How does that even work?
It doesn’t.
When the acquirer is smaller than the target, you can’t just absorb it.
You need a holding entity above both. The holdco becomes the parent. Both companies become subsidiaries.
That’s the only way the math and legal structure work at this size mismatch.
So when someone who registered a holding company years ago makes a bid like this… what’s the logical conclusion? The most obvious?
And if a seasoned investor like @michaeljburry is ignoring this, what could it mean?

English

If you do publicity stunts to pretend to finance your takeover bid, that might suggest, to the casual observer, that your takeover bid is itself a publicity stunt. (via @opinion) bloomberg.com/opinion/newsle…

@hirambank @ryancohen btw, that MC appreciation was done on a bad business and no share buybacks or dividends. Ebay was already a solid business and they still have to "financial engineer" it to get the stock price up.
English

Dude @ryancohen look I get shitting on eBay that’s fine but let’s take a look at what your shareholders are dealing with. Same 5 yr timeline
I mean you tell me doofus


English

@hirambank @ryancohen Gamestop was a 300 million MC company before RC came in, it's now sitting at almost 11 billion in MC. I guess maths is hard for you.
English

@ryancohen I know that he had to be fuming when I asked if I should reach out to Ryan Cohen instead 🤣🍿

English

@bobeconlog @ryancohen It's always amazing to me how many are willing to criticise something they have no idea about. Are you being paid to do this or do you honestly have nothing better to do with your life?
English

Hilarious coming from the “king of apes” that harass people nonstop when they see anything they deem negative about your shitty company.
And you’re the edge lord/ape lord trying to acquire that disgusting company. How many of your shitty pawnstop stores have ripped people off with trade-ins, bud?
You’re the ceo of a shitty video game pawn shop that’s now banking on children GAMBLING on power packs to increase your revenue. Eat shit, you actual doofus.

@SoulPunisher_ @Ether_Ships @ryancohen The comparison is about insider buying and shareholder alignment, so you should be comparing that. The dumbass thing to do is to compare stock charts.
English

@SoulPunisher_ @ryancohen He's the largest shareholder of GME genius, and it was less than 1 billion in MC before he came in to take over. It's over 10 billion now. Stop shilling for corrupt shady players on wall street.
English

@ryancohen on the counter side of that. look at the gme chart for the last 5 years @ryancohen
idk if you should be talking

English

@ozyman_04 @MartinShkreli Can you read Gamestop's financial statements for the last 5 years and tell me what it says please?
English

@MartinShkreli Like what? LMAO.... dude couldn't answer basic funding questions with any transparency and the dip in stock price reflected that.
His answers were as good as your ability to read financial statements.
English

everyone should treat CNBC like this
Reese Politics@ReesePolitics
Here's the most contentious part of Ryan Cohen's CNBC Squawk Box interview about the GameStop-EBAY acquisition. This is a HEATED back and forth, uncommon for financial news. $GME Sorkin, at one point is in disbelief at RC's repetitive answering to his question.
English

@TheBTCTherapist That's like me telling you to sell all your BTC every time it dipped.
English

@GerberKawasaki Ryan Cohen turned a dying retailer from massive bleeding into operational profitability, and he did it whilst receiving no salary, and making sure he has a board of directors that had skin in the game. How many CEOs do you know could've pulled that off?
English

@GerberKawasaki You lost all your credibility when you abandoned Elon and Tesla all those years ago because your political affiliations told you to do so. Now you're bottom fishing for relevance in this "junk company".
English

@vortexEire @CoinMarketCap You do realise the economy grows over time, right?
English

@CoinMarketCap $200 trillion... so larger than the entire world's economy?
This is why you should never listen to twitter for investing advice.
English

@michaeljburry Ryan most likely had advanced talks with Ebay's board last year, and they came to a tentative agreement. Now it's simply up to shareholders of both companies to vote for it.
English

@daisyldixon That does not mean it is an ideal scenario for women to be doing masculine things, or for men to do feminine things. That is a perversion of nature and should only be done sparingly.
English

I should have known that this would upset way too many people on here
Dr Daisy Dixon@daisyldixon
@MyKull_ed Both men and women hunted and gathered , the rigid divide is a myth likely generated to shore up later patriarchal systems
English

@daisyldixon To simply explain why women are capable of doing the things men do, albeit not do them as well as men, is because men die a lot. If your male partner dies, as a woman, you have to survive somehow, either by finding another capable mate or by just doing the things yourself.
English

@daisyldixon It was never a rigid divide, and your statement fails to explain the nuance. For example, both men and women work full time jobs these days, but that doesn't explain that men generally are better at their careers because they can afford to be away from their kids more than women.

The Hollow Men
American capitalism is rotting from the head down. We have replaced the "Owner-Operator"—the risk-taker-with a new, parasitic class of corporate bureaucrat: The Risk-Free Insider.
By "Insider," I am not referring to a specific title. I am referring to the entire administrative state that has captured the modern corporation. This includes the Directors who exist solely to collect fees, the Executives who exist solely to collect bonuses, and the Managers who exist solely to hire consultants.
These are the hollow men of the boardroom. They are masters of PowerPoint. They wear the right suits. They say the right buzzwords about "governance" and "ESG." But they are mercenaries fighting a war with someone else’s ammunition.
In a functioning economy, authority is tied to liability. If you make a bad decision, you lose your own money. That fear of loss is the only thing that keeps a business honest. It forces you to cut waste, obsess over the customer, and stay late to fix what is broken.
Today, we have severed that link.
We have rigged the game so that heads, the Insider wins; tails, the shareholder loses.
If the stock goes up, the Insider collects a massive performance bonus. If the stock crashes due to their own incompetence, they are fired with a "Golden Parachute" worth tens of millions. They are gambling with the house’s money, and they never leave the table poorer than they arrived.
This looting starts in the boardroom.
We have normalized a "Country Club" culture where directors are selected based on social profiling rather than their ability to build a business. The modern board member is often a professional tourist—paid an average of $350,000 a year.
Let’s be brutally honest about what that number represents. The average director is paid nearly five times the GDP per capita of the United States. They earn more for attending four quarterly lunches than the vast majority of Americans earn in five years of hard labor.
And for what?
Most of these directors are "over-boarded," sitting on three or four boards simultaneously. They treat directorships as a gig economy for the elite. They fly in, rubber-stamp a compensation package they didn't read, and fly out. They collect checks from companies they do not understand, do not use, and certainly do not love.
They are not there to ask hard questions. They are there to be collegial. They are there to protect the other Insiders.
And what happens when these boards hire executives who also have no personal capital at risk?
We get the Delegation Economy.
When a Risk-Free Insider faces a crisis—bloated expenses, a broken supply chain, or a stale product—they do not roll up their sleeves. They hire a consultant. They pay a strategy firm millions of shareholder dollars to produce a 100-page deck telling them what they already know.
This is not management. It is intellectual money laundering.
They use shareholder capital to buy an insurance policy for their own careers. If the plan fails, they can blame the consultants. They delegate the work because they are terrified of the responsibility. They would rather preside over a slow, comfortable decline than risk a bold mistake.
While American Insiders are busy optimizing their severance packages, our global competitors are optimizing their products. They are not slowed down by bureaucracy. They are not waiting for a slide deck. They are outworking us.
If we continue to fill our C-suites with administrators instead of operators, we will lose our edge. We will see iconic American franchises hollowed out by fees, managed for the benefit of the Insiders, while the true owners—the shareholders—are left holding the bag.
The time for polite governance is over.
If we want to save the American economy from mediocrity, we must demand a return to the "Owner’s Mentality." We need leaders who treat shareholder capital with the same reverence they treat their own savings. The era of the Risk-Free Insider must end.
