Tonight is a good night to remember:

The golden goose is overvalued.

There is no golden egg factory.

But real eggs do lay eggs, if you’re patient.

Now I’m going outside to look at the Moon.

....says the man who felt the best way to explain the value of his company to its investors was to liken it to a goose with a factory inside it that makes golden eggs that are actually AGI. Oh, and thinks he's like Jesus as he, too, is misunderstood.

I know #Goose is sooo 2 weeks ago. BUT while running errands today, I ran into an actual Goose who's value was 70 ($69.97 CDN)

Sooo maybe, in this case, the Goose has some value after all? No? Value is still 0? LOL. Maybe I should have looked for golden egg ornaments instead.

- the killing of CBS tv and radio
- the #Paramount - #WarnerBrothers merger
- more than 30,000 laid-off tech workers since 2025
- the #Stargate capitalist welfare grift that includes #NVidia #OpenAI #Softbank
- the herpes-like spread of ecocidal data centers

Oracle has its tentacles all over the #aislop push. now their stock is junk.
