I'm really hopeful for virtual reality tech. When they figure that out I reckon it will revolutionize our world. This is a good step in the right direction, though obviously we'll all end up in pods/capsules.

sometimes investment firms will buy an entire portfolio of businesses.. the titles that arent really profitable are then 'set it, and forget it'. the popeil two-step. kinda smells like that here.
i think its stock only, there are a ton of restrictions like he cant sell immediately.. so maybe no immediate cash out and hopefully in the meantime the price tanks to pennies so it becomes worthless

the reality is trump long-ago found the primary failure in our 'justice' system, and thats 'time'. appeal enough, drag it out long enough you will win. either outright or tacitly as whatever it is is no longer relevant.
its the goal of literally every thing he has ever done legally. if you look at it through that lens it all makes sense. combine that with court system stacked with ultra-right wing crazy people and you have a fascist movement in the works.

An elderly man lived near a forest. As he grew older, he began to lose his hair, until he was entirely bald on his deathbed. He summoned his children to a meeting that day.
He explained, “Take a look at my hair. It was once wonderful, but it is now completely gone. My hair is beyond repair. However, take a look outside at the forest. It’s a beautiful forest with many trees, but they’ll all be taken down sooner or later, and this forest will be as bald as my hair.”
“What I want you to do…” said the man. “Is to plant a new tree in my memory every time a tree is cut down or dies. Tell your heirs to do the same. It will be our family’s responsibility to maintain this forest strong.”
That is precisely what they did.
When the forest lost a tree, the children replanted one, as did their children, and their children’s children, and so on.
And for centuries, the forest remained as lush and pretty as it once was, all because of one man and his re-seeding heirline.
