I'm no shaman, but I suspect if we sacrifice enough CEOs, Mother Earth will ease up on the climate change.

[-] [email protected] 52 points 5 days ago

You'd need to drastically up the pace.

Anyone got Luigi on speed dial?

[-] [email protected] 58 points 5 days ago

Could we start doing the ritual more often? Like, weekly maybe?

2 months to stop the spread, got it

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

that's actually a really good comparison method

[-] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

According to a /r/theydidthemath conversation, it's closer to 4 months, but still.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Spread weapons, not billionaires.

Facts be facts

There's only 52 weeks in a year

Whilst a lot of CEOs are either not evil, or maybe are just inconsequential (like the CEO of some random startup with 4 employees creating a new app that's like Tinder but for whatever else), there's thousands whose companies are ruining our society and planet.

Though if one were to fall a week, that would maybe at least drive some fear into the others.

Oh yeah, I was gonna mention that, didn't want to seem like I'm actually advocating for anything though. Unfortunate as it is, I may still have to do business travel to the US at some point and while I'm white enough to hopefully be safe, I wouldn't want them to think I'm planning on taking any action on my political opinions.

Forgetting Autonomy CEO Mike Lynch who died when his super yacht was sunk rapidly by microburst storm in Sicily

Orcas have been attacking and sinking yachts. Apparently, CEO Marcus Hale (crypto bro) was sailing off the coast of Portugal last October when his yacht was attacked by orcas. He drowned. Here’s the only article I can find that’s not a video or twitter post: https://www.bitrue.com/blog/marcus-hale-crypto-ceo-death

I can’t find a more reputable link, so can’t vouch for the veracity of this. The orcas have been revolting for a few years, though.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago

Lmao I hadn't heard about that one. I will continue cheering for the Orcas.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago

Same. If arrogant bastards were doing donuts in my garden, keeping me up at all hours, throwing their rubbish everywhere, and scaring away my food, I’d start sabotaging them, too.

Orcas have yet to kill anyone on purpose, and this dipshit was likely collateral damage to them, but if they literally start eating people I’d say they deserve it. Team Orca.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago

*Wild orcas are not known to have killed a human on purpose. Captive orcas seem to have killed on purpose.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Rightfully so. No one should keep an orca in captivity. We are fucking savages

[-] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

You’re right, and who can blame them. We’ve treated them poorly.

(I was thinking about one instance, but there have been several, you’re right.)

[-] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

2 seconds of googling gave me some guy called Marcus Hale. No idea if that's who the meme is talking about tho

[-] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Probably, thanks for finding it. I thought the orcas preferred capsizing overfilled migrant boats, which was unfortunate

[-] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

search for the '2020 orca wars'

[-] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Thanks, I thought that was mostly refugee boats getting capsized which didn’t seem to fit

[-] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago

Now that’s a tradition I can get behind

[-] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago

Who’s the upper right guy? Looks familiar but I’ve already forgotten who he is/was

[-] [email protected] 19 points 5 days ago

Luigi Mangione, accused killer of the CEO of United Health.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Isn’t winter Luigi time?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Who's the first one? Did I miss something?

[-] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago

Yes you did. A CEO was caught on a kiss cam while having an affair with his HR chief. They did not play it off well, and it got a lot of attention.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

That's all good, I guess, but I was hoping for another dead one.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

he's dead to his family, if that helps.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago
[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Still not dead enough.
