@jdorman81 Please don't delete your Youtube vids/channel even if you're converging social media efforts onto X. I've watched all the vids but I need to find a way to store them... .

The real $MSTR tension -- there are four stakeholder groups: 1) BTC holders 2) MSTR debt holders 3) MSTR pfd holders (including but not limited to $STRC) 4) MSTR shareholders ... and all believe they are protected. Individually, they can be right. Collectively, they cannot all be right forever. At some point, the system has to decide who gets paid, because you can’t fund interest & dividend obligations without cash flows.

@SizweDhlomo Conjures up fond memories of reading Drake's GQ cover story where he says that Will Smith told him, that it's not love until you feel like you need the person. Drake said he felt like he just hadn't ever gotten to that point yet with a significant other.

"Rockefeller died in 1937. The refrigerator wasn't even commercialised until the early 1920s. The richest guy in the world didn't even have a refrigerator. So if you have a refrigerator, you're in some ways wealthier than Rockefeller was a little less than 100 years ago."

@Nick_Hotz hi there, Nick. Big fan of your previous work @arca . I'm currently looking for a circa Sep 2022 post of yours called 'Apes and Bots Brought L1s To Their Knees' but I can't find it. Might it have been renamed? Thanks.

@SizweDhlomo Will.I.Am has this great Masters of Scale episode where he talks about how Jimmy Iovine's separate meetings blend together and ideas cross-pollinate. Enjoy.

@SizweDhlomo Remember SLR? "Black skies lookin' up/ Crack pipes lookin' down/ I'm accused of not lookin' back/ Blind ni**a look around!"

There is an inordinate amount of rich and/or wise people trying to change your life for free who can't get more than 150 views and are thinking of quitting. Show them love.

• be John Malone • born 1941, electrical engineer + PhD in Operations Research • absolute math savant, treats the US Tax Code like a physics problem • 1973: takes over TCI, a tiny cable company drowning in debt • banks are circling, stock is worthless, everyone says "quit" • realizes "Net Income" is a scam designed to feed the IRS • "If you show a profit, the government takes 50%. If you show a loss, you keep the cash." • decides to run the company at a net loss forever • Wall Street screams "Where are the earnings?!" • ignores them; literally invents the metric EBITDA (Cash Flow) just to shut them up • "Earnings are an opinion. Cash is a fact." • borrows massive amounts of money to buy every cable system in rural America • uses the interest payments + depreciation to wipe out his taxable income to zero • 1980s: becomes the gatekeeper of American television • if you want your channel on TV (CNN, MTV, Discovery), you have to pay the toll • ruthlessly squeezes content creators; demands 20% equity in their channels just to carry them • Al Gore calls him "Darth Vader" in the Senate; he frames the article in his office • regulators try to break him up • creates "tracking stocks" (Liberty Media) so complex that even the IRS can't audit him • "I've never seen a tax shelter I didn't like." • 1999: Dot Com bubble is at absolute peak • realizes the internet will eventually kill cable pipes • sells TCI to AT&T for $48 Billion • structures it as an all-stock deal; pays $0 in taxes • AT&T stock crashes years later; Malone keeps the content assets (Liberty) and walks away with the kingdom • takes the winnings and buys 2.2 million acres of land • becomes the largest individual landowner in the United States (owns more land than Rhode Island) • 83 years old, still sits on the board, still paying zero taxes

@RealEmirHan You know, all my life, Rush Hour 2 has felt like a christmas holiday movie to me and now I also just remembered that "Christmas" happens to also be what Mike used to call Chris Tucker 🤔

Did you know Michael Jackson watched Rush Hour 2 and immediately called Chris Tucker to say he was kicking with the wrong leg. “Stop making me look bad.” 😂 Chris saw Michael in person… he kicked with the wrong leg again — right in front of him.
