I am thinking a lot today about the elimination of the penny and how 19th century Americans dealt with persistent shortages of small change in creative ways. Here is a Michigan bank note in an odd denomination to help local transactions when coins were unavailable. Bank of Pontiac, MI, $1.25, 18--.🗃️

Jodorowsky's Dune is a perennial one-that-got-away favorite but friends it's been 40 years and I'm still holding out hope for Buckaroo Banzai Against The World Crime League, as foretold by the ancient title texts
What's the movie that almost got made but never came together that you're bummed about?
Mine is the William Gains biopic Philip Seymour Hoffman was trying to get made

All the wacky conspiracy theorists who don't believe in the moon landing or think it was a hoax accuse the US government of not being able to actually travel there.
Everyone knows the real conspiracy is that there is no moon.

The ability to convince capital markets to hand you a trillion dollars on the strength of obvious bullshit paired with the inability to get a single human to sincerely and spontaneously say they love you is some real punishment of the gods shit.
Elon has never experienced this and neither have his biggest fans but now they can create these visuals with the help of a computermachine

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.
The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.
