Now suspect Putin's bid for Ukraine is going to fizzle like the Cuban missile crisis.  He tested the water to see what would happen & got enough of a response to realize it was a lost cause.  It would have been different if no-one else did anything, but US eventually built up a military presence.

Eventually, Russia won't have a subpar military compared to US & there is going to be war.

What lions were told was coming in 1990 finally came to pass. There really are less relationships of any kind. The lion kingdom was never very excited about sex. It paradoxically might have been from being over sexual in puberty. The more sexual an animal is in younger age, the more likely he is to get sick of it early on, like eating too much chocolate.

Millennials were told relationships are declining because of increasing distractions, but we were told it would happen because of decreasing necessity. Without economic necessity, relationships would be more dependent on having something in common, which they never did.

"Better educated people and higher wage earners are the most likely to live with a partner or be married" agrees with what lions saw over the last 20 years. The bar isn't just higher to hold someone's attention, but a lot higher. Millennial women skewed towards the lawyers & doctors where baby boomers might have picked programmers & janitors.

The insider trading before these deals is the mane reason Berk can't be outdone. There's no other way to get in on future deals than buying the Berk. The fact that hotties high up in Activision/Blizzard/Microsoft told lions to fuck off leaves a bad taste in the lion kingdom's portfolio, but we're all 1 big company nowadays. Your taxes & your IRA's are always going to be in some way invested in a hottie trophy wife who told you to fuck off, some communist, or some hitler worshiper.

Notes about the manly scott interview:

Dropped out of a PhD but did earn a Masters in astronomy. Bounced around enough A startups working on trendy topics to finally get acquired by Apple & work on AI. That's really hard to do. It's really hard to get startups working on the current big thing to look at you & it's harder to survive an acquisition, & it's even harder to actually make money in the long term. Having a graduate degree in quantitative science seemed to have helped him just like many coworkers.

Wouldn't work for any aerospace companies because of the impartiality Apple allows for his gootube videos.

Doesn't see being a fulltime gootuber as stable as staying corporate.

Raptor 1 was nowhere close. It would only allow 80 tons to LEO, so they really need raptor 2 for the Mars colonizer. Expects them to go back to landing legs for the booster, since the booster's mass isn't as critical as the ship & the chopsticks idea is similar to the fairing catcher idea.

Starship is good for LEO & building space stations but not very useful for deep space probes. There would be a long lead time to redesign the interplanetary probes.

Wouldn't go to Mars because of family commitments.

Is concerned about megaconstellations interfering with astronomy & expects space telescopes to become more important because of them.

After the 1st 45 minutes, it gets boring fast. In the last 3 minutes, he shows some Soyuz artifacts he bought from ebay.

She could have done that interview online without losing any value, but it did show how $2 million doesn't buy a house any quieter than a dumpy apartment.
