Thiel and his blood boys are trying to do to Tolkien what whatshername did to those whatshiswizard books.
Anduril and Erebor here.
Another Thiel VC’s is Mithril Capital

Agree in principle to implement the consensus is a spectacularly dizzying deployment of jargon

Spoiler: It’s definitely going to be the case, which is why Kennedy timed it so that his team of quacks can make sweeping recommendations before anyone has a chance to scrutinize their backgrounds

Textbook. Create a fake crisis, add the maximum amount of hype, and then take the far more dangerous action when no one is looking.

“Being saturated and satiated with emotion and sensation, I went to bed and slept the sleep of the saved and thankful.” — Churchill, after the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Anyway, what’s Voldymyr Zelenskyy thinking today watching the US President feud with a form advisor with Putinist sympathies?
