I close my eyes, take slow deep breaths, and with each breath slowly count up and down from 0 with the high number increasing by one on each cycle. Eg. 0 1 0 1 2 1 0 1 2 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0… It requires just enough concentration to keep my brain from drifting off to other thoughts (usually), but is boring enough that I rarely get to 9 without falling asleep.

TIL how to spell beaucoup.

However, Joe Lonsdale, the founder of 8VC, did comment, considering it a response to an attack by left-wing media for “supporting Trump.” Lonsdale was referring to an article published by Forbes magazine describing his fund’s connections with the sons of Russian oligarchs.

Forbes is “left-wing media” now?

This would make an excellent short film. The fire axes scene would be epic.

That’s the point.

They don’t actually fly. They’re just so ugly that the Earth repels them.

I was kinda hoping this news wouldn’t get out until after the Russian Air Force suffered a sudden and surprising day of absolutely devastating losses.
