    Things rich people do to cope with hardship:

    • Prayer
    • Fasting
    • Earning more money in a year than you’ll make in your entire lifetime

      David is right up there with Samuel L Jackson for me in his unique and satisfying delivery of the F-word and it’s derivatives.

    An act that says 2 things:

    1. Don’t look to me, as your leadership, to help you.
    2. No one will help you.

    Notice the motif though? There are lots of media bits in a patchwork quilt across sources this last month encouraging prayer. Heritage, probably.

    If all it takes is prayers and intermittent fasting, I would like to throw my hat in as next CEO. I will fast two days a week if I get equal to Pat’s 2023 compensation package of $16.86 million.

    So dumb. As if a divine deity has some kind of moral investment in the health and welfare of a tech company.

    How about showing some actual leadership instead of thoughts & prayers?

    Please join me and fast for 24 hours! And pray!

    Literally everyone, looking at their calendar wondering when they are supposed to take 24hours to starve themselves for… For what?

    Seriously even if this actually helped the situation his privilege isn’t just showing, it’s flopping around while his panties are around his ankles. Who has 24 consecutive hours a week for this BS?
