A billionaire promising you decentralisation is like a king promising you democracy.
(Unless it involves them abdicating the crown, you know it’s bullshit.)

  1. WONDERMARK W DAVID MALKI Comic strip: A man and woman are driving a steam-powered carriage. Woman: I DON'T MIND MOST MARINE MAMMALS. BUT SEA LIONS? I COULD DO WITHOUT SEA LIONS. Man : DON'T SAY THAT OUT LOUD! Sea Lion appears: PARDON ME, I COULDN'T HELP BUT OVERHEAR Man: NOW YOU'VE DONE IT Sea Lion: I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A CIVIL CONVERSATION ABOUT YOUR STATEMENT. WOULD YOU MIND SHOWING ME EVIDENCE OF ANY NEGATIVE THING ANY SEA LION HAS EVER DONE TO YOU? Woman: GO AWAY Sea Lion: THERE'S NO NEED TO RAISE YOUR VOICE. I'M RIGHT HERE. I'M JUST CURIOUS IF YOU HAVE ANY SOURCES TO BACK UP YOUR OPINION? Woman (in bed): YOU'RE IN MY HOUSE Sea Lion: YOU MADE A STATEMENT IN PUBLIC FOR ALL TO HEAR. ARE YOU UNABLE TO DEFEND THE STATEMENTS YOU MAKE? OR SIMPLY UNWILLING TO HAVE A REASONED DISCUSSION? Man: TOLD YOU, DUDE. SEA LIONS. Sea Lion: I HAVE BEEN UNFAILINGLY POLITE, AND YOU TWO HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT RUDE. Woman: I AM TRYING TO EAT BREAKFAST Sea Lion: VERY WELL. WE SHALL RESUME IN AN HOUR
