Since California Gov. Gavin Newsom declined my advice to expropriate the fuck out of PG&E, and is letting them pay victims of their statewide fires instead, the Fire Victims Fund has paid out $7 million to displaced people and $50 million in "overhead." While tens of thousands of people have yet to see a dime, and others will get a third of what they're owed, the fund's "claims administrators" make $1250 an hour, and no you didn't miss the decimal point. There wasn't one. (KQED)

Giuliani cuts down his entourage. Poor (poor) Rudy Giuliani : ( (Politico)
The who from the what now? "The Teachable Moment All Men Need To Take From Ben Affleck's Dating App Debacle." I'll bite, HuffPost. Okay, it was a lot of words and interviewing Hot Girls From Instagram to get to "teachable moments" about this. I have many strongly negative feelings, and none of them are about Ben Affleck (for once), but why be mean to strangers on the internet about super nasal a capella songs or uncanny valley faces?
