    So… they knew, didn’t tell us, then lied.

    Great government we have. Truly representative of the people.

    Also 9/11 happened because of Israel. So yeah.

      Nothing that can’t be traced back to physical goods is worth damn. Much of the most reliable segments of the stock market go back to real goods. This is why Bitcoin is literal nonsense.

      I heard there was some connection to the price of a slice of pizza in NY and a subway ticket. I don’t know how true it is.

        Does that measure girth, or length?

            And the number of remaining sprinkles once the donuts are removed are proportional to surface area and thus girth.

    Pentagon-adjacent pizza joints also got much busier than usual during Israel’s 2024 missile strike on Iran, it said, as there are “a multitude of fast food restaurants in the Pentagon complex, but no pizza places”.

      It seems like it’s a national security issue to open a Dominos in the Pentagon I guess

        It kinda sounds like it’s a security risk for them not to

          That’s what I meant. But it raises a question, can the Pentagon not afford to get catered food for when they call a bunch of people in to do overtime?

        Especially as the people who believe in “pizza place basements” are now running the show.
