Okay so now instead of theoretically backstopping $250 billion NVIDIA would theoretically backstop $120 billion in a deal that is yet to be finalized for a data center that has yet to be built by a company that has never built a data center for a company that can't afford to pay

I've been spending time documenting the continued aid efforts of Kelly Montano of Full Arepas and her organizing partner, Marlen Gonzalez. The two recently started a nonprofit, SELA, to continue sending aid to Venezuela and beyond, including Colombia. Link to full piece below.
Today I caught up with Kelly Montano, owner of Full Arepas in DTLA, who, in the wake of the catastrophic earthquakes in La Guaira, Venezuela, has turned the arepera into a donation center to send aid to those affected by the disaster, the death toll of which has risen to 3,300 as of Sunday 7/5.

B of A, on the NVIDIA deal: ".. our first take is a positive one -- the burden sits with the consortium, not $NVDA's balance sheet. This appears to be a pivot away from vendor-financing .. that drew circularity fire -- which we estimate at only ~15% of ~$470bn FCF over the next two years .."
For me, this is one of the most powerful Calvin and Hobbes strips.

On CNN, El-Sayed is asked about this Trump post. He says it represents "two different visions of America:" "Two people who don't like each other but are joined in the interest of making billions of dollars off of you. Or, two people who genuinely love each other, enjoying some panacakes together."
Just saw a thing where a director talked about taking out sex/nudity because audiences don’t want to see it. Here’s an idea: fuck the audience. I’m the chef & they’ll eat what I serve them and like it. *The audience* knows what they want? Why don’t you let a toddler drive a car next?

To be clear: They only started spending a small percentage of that treasure AFTER there was sustained public outrage and the government started cracking down with regulations. They didn't do this out of the goodness of their hearts.
There used to be a time when some of the wealthy recognized their good fortune and would spend a small percentage of their treasure supporting the public good. Now they act like it’s money the fought and worked hard to win, (it’s not) and no one is going to take a dime from them. They are sick.

On this day 3 years ago a man sent up a call for aid and his neighbors answered, giving us the greatest video of the decade. Happy Chairteenth to all who celebrate.
This... makes it SO much worse. Does he know this makes it worse?? Especially when we see he's given CBS News over to the failbaby Bari Weiss to slowly suffocate under right wing bullshit.
The Paramount CEO David Ellison took to the NYT op-ed pages to make his case for why the Warnermount merger is a good thing, actually.
Greatest movie year ever. Only 1939 comes close. Network All The President's Men Taxi Driver Bound For Glory Marathon Man. And NONE of them won Best Picture. ...Rocky did. We ALL have to keep giving our best until moves are that good again.
“I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!” NETWORK (1976) In a decade littered with cinematic masterpieces, Paddy Chayefsky & Sidney Lumet’s movie is right up there at the top of the list. #PeterFinch

Kristen Welker is the worst garbage. I thought Chuck Todd was bad.
NBC's kristen welker was caught laughing it up with Stephen Miller. Stephen Miller who architected the family separation policy. Stephen Miller who pushed the Muslim travel ban. Stephen Miller who oversaw the killing of Americans by ICE agents. This is why independent media is crucial.
