Is this what a mid-life crisis looks like for cis people? Or just cis billionaires?

bbc.com/news/business-65981876

Public

Maybe the solution to the world's problems is to put billionaires in a cage and have them fight each other…voluntarily, of course…um, yea

Public

@LilahTovMoon I must be living in the worst timeline

Public

@Michaela @LilahTovMoon i think its the most absurd, worst would be if these fools were both charasmatic an competent

Public
@LilahTovMoon wait... that's not russian roulette
Public

@LilahTovMoon I mean, when you have so much money that buying a rediculous sports car or yacht no longer gives you a rush, what else are you supposed to do besides risk your life beating the crap out of another billionaire?

Public

@faithisleaping @LilahTovMoon ngl, i might actually grab pop corn for this

Public

@LilahTovMoon No. Only for filthy rich cis people.

Public
@LilahTovMoon [tech.lgbt] I doubt this actually goes anywhere
Public

@LilahTovMoon I’ve been saying this for years! 😂😂

Public

@LilahTovMoon In second season, please spice it up by throwing few world leaders into the cage...

Public

@LilahTovMoon I wouldn't pay to watch (of course), but yes, I would definitely watch with a lot of interest

Public

@LilahTovMoon
The best idea.
Put them in cages and let them fight!
😂😂😂😂

Public

@LilahTovMoon last survivor gets a tax break. the rest forfeit assets to the government.

Quiet public

@LilahTovMoon the loser must give all but a few million $ to the tax authorities of the countries he has any business with

Public

@LilahTovMoon Yes, but the loser's billions go to, say, Medicare for all, not the winner.

Public

@LilahTovMoon And if they donate a significant amount to something worthwhile, we could even let them out.

Public

@LilahTovMoon The first rule of rich idiot fight club is to never tell us about rich idiot fight club.

Public

@LilahTovMoon cis billionaires

Public

@LilahTovMoon I think the ground rules should be that wild tigers be released into the cage at the halfway mark...

Public

@LilahTovMoon Incidentally, it was almost 25 years ago that Scott Stapp of Creed challenged Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit to a boxing match. Neither has been heard much of since...

Public

@LilahTovMoon And let us not forget why they did it...for the nookie (the nookie)...

Public

@LilahTovMoon Cis white men billionaires - where each word is a cumulative risk factor

Public

@LilahTovMoon no this is what i looks like for gazillionaires. for normie cis ppl its usually a lot of drinking and not channing the radio station when the country music is on

Public

@LilahTovMoon@tech.lgbt don't call them cis you'll hurt their feelings with that dreaded slur :blobcat_grin:

Public

@LilahTovMoon I don't even and cannot with this!

Public

@LilahTovMoon @goatsarah Loose definition of the word “people”…

Public

@LilahTovMoon * psychopaths

Public

@LilahTovMoon if the "octogone sans règles" story (between two french rappers) taught anything, it's that mid-life crisis can also look like this for cis millionaires.

Quiet public

@LilahTovMoon two men enter
one man leaves

Quiet public

@LilahTovMoon Or rather: whoever wins, we lose

Quiet public

@LilahTovMoon Would say it's nothing to do with gender orientation, but for lack of data points to the contrary. As the saying goes though, if you think entropy is bad now, just wait!

Quiet public

@LilahTovMoon I should have taken a *left* at whatever this timeline's version of Albuquerque is.

Public

@LilahTovMoon Could we just nod along with this, get them to walk into a cage, lock the door and then just walk away? And possibly seal up the building?

Public

@LilahTovMoon it is what midlife crisis look like for cis guys brainwashed into thinking manliness requires violence (or at least abuse) towards others.

Also this is what 20 year old cis men who don't understand the plot of Fight Club thinks being an adult is.

Public

@LilahTovMoon you have to have money to rent a big fighting cage and do all the publicity stunts.
Non billionaires might go fishing, get a new car, or pick a fight on a bar.😆

Public

@LilahTovMoon this is what it my midlife crisis looks like. I’m pretty much a teenager again.

If someone would give me $1B, I’d be happy to tell you if it looks any different as a trans billionaire.

Public

@LilahTovMoon Cisgender man is the most disgusting and childrish thing ever. I love how he going mad against trans folks because his daughter.

Public

@LilahTovMoon
Why I'm having strong "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome"-vibes right now?
Too sad aunt entity just passed away…

Public

@LilahTovMoon I dunno, my midlife crisis also involved a couple of tits

Public

@LilahTovMoon I want the floor to win.
GO FLOOR!

Public

@LilahTovMoon surprise third fighter! A very large and hungry lion. No one leaves until the lion is happy.

Public

@LilahTovMoon

I think my midlife crisis was finally coming out of my egg?

Public

@Mendie_Taoma I nearly said, "my midlife crisis was just coming out of the closet"
