on. I like it. And if the only thing it does is make you think deeper about other possibilities that are possible. So suppose the answer was no that's crazy we're not going to use a nuke to stop a hurricane but what if then the person you asked said but I do have an idea. Suppose you did this. Here's an idea that would actually work to reduce hurricanes. You would greenify Northern Africa which ca…

ing I wanted to say today. So I remind you that Owen Gregorian's going to do a Spaces after we're done. So he's been doing that on Saturdays after the show. People seem to like it. It was well attended. So look for that probably just a few minutes after we're done. It's on Spaces on X.

And you watched three movies in three days? You had nothing better to do than that? Did you also exercise? Because if you watched movies and you didn't exercise that day you need to rethink that. All the AI invasion is coordinated with a writer strike. Interesting.

All right let me just look at your comments here for a moment. Dilbert assumption. Scott, not about best idea of the year. LA Times. Oh I could probably get Dilbert back in some newspapers. Yeah I just don't want Dilbert in newspapers anymore because newspapers are just a dying industry. There's no point. I could get a few newspapers but they don't pay much individually. It wouldn't make any difference to my income. So even if I got a few big papers like hypothetically that what was mentioned was the LA Times. So even if the LA Times said you know we're trying to be different than we were and we'll take you back that would be like $100 a month. Did you know that? That's how little they pay for cartoons. It's like $100 a month. So if you have 2,000 of them and they all pay different rates depending on the size then you're making real money. But to get one or two papers to take Dilbert back wouldn't make any difference at all. There's no income involved with that. Yeah I'd have to start censoring myself again. Don't want that.

All right since Owen's going to do a Spaces you'll have some time to chat with each other. I think I'll end this and maybe just say hi quickly to the Locals people but everybody on X and Rumble and YouTube thanks for joining. And YouTube is going to probably demonetize me because they do every once in a while and we don't know why. I think twice recently for no obvious reason. So just know that. All right Locals coming at you privately.
