"Author Malcolm Gladwell introduced the world to the idea that it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert in something"

Facebook proves every day that expertise is irrelevant.

The original Catch 22 had one of the best casts ever assembled. Cost $18 million, only made $25 million.
We all know who should have played Milo. sparknotes.com/lit/catch22/ch…

RYP Trivia: The CIA is obsessed with flechettes (look it up). I wrote a killer piece on this bizarre fetish called "Dr Death Will See You Now" It was considered too controversial to publish. Someday tho.

Second blistering @nytimes overview of Donald Trump's financials and business incompetence. It seems clear that the only thing he can run successfully is his own mouth. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
@nytimes To understand what a "C" level grifter Don is, he didn't even have the gag roll to Pump and Dump. He "Railed and Bailed" without any intention of actually getting his wallet dirty. Just like the puffery he belches at hostile nations before he tucks his tail in and runs.
@nytimes The U.S. Iran and Russia have teams that game out what leaders may or may not do. Complete with tests and feints to measure their estimates. Most are right...until they are wrong...because wars without short sharp contained jabs go sideways very quickly. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

Business pile in from several sources calling out May’s shameful conduct all whipped up by the ERG and Hoey types.
1/. In surance trade body, the ABI, said a no-deal Brexit "would be a be an unforgivable act of economic and social self-harm".
bbc.com/news/business-…
2/ IOD: Businesses have lost all faith in the political process and as those first in the firing line of no-deal, they deserve to know more."
3/. CBI deputy director general Josh Hardie described (the vote delay) as "the latest signal to businesses that no-deal is hurtling closer".

"It must be averted. Every day without a deal means less investment and fewer jobs created," he said.

1. And now I'm going to tell a story. Another false flag. This time is to force @POTUS not to take the US army out of #Syria.
They already have a lot of experience (8 years) to make chemical attacks to accuse the Syrian government.
OH, and they even have a manual.🧐😲🤨

2. ISIS terrorist? 😲Seriously?🤨 Have they investigated? 🤓And they already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

Preliminary reports say at least six people were killed & 19 injured by the explosion. US official: 4 US army Killed & 3 US army wounded.

3. ISIS took responsability?😲Seriously?🤨Have they investigated?🤓They already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

The Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) took responsibility for the attack that reportedly targeted the US-led coalition’s patrol.

This 'the idea was right but the implementation is flawed' excuse is convenient to 'respectable' Leavers but also fundamentally misplaced. /1 bbc.com/news/business-…
It's flawed because the Leave campaign baked in to their pitch to voters contradictory promises: (in summary) take back control and be better off. And they baked them in deliberately because they knew it was the only way to get Brexit over the line. /2
But don't take my word for it, read what Dominic Cummings, the 'Mastermind' of the Leave vote said (dominiccummings.com/2015/06/23/on-…). And who's to blame when the unicorn can't be found? Those who promised it or those who can't find it? /3
